Hi all,
I find the XPath 3.1 function json-to-xml() quite useful. It can convert
any JSON input to an XML representation. But I'm not convinced that XPath
3.1's xml-to-json() function (as defined in the spec) is much useful.
Taking an example from XPath 3.1 F&O spec, the following XML document
<array xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-functions
"><number>1</number><string>is</string><boolean>1</boolean></array>
converts into following JSON by the function xml-to-json(),
[1,"is",true]
(which is fine)
But as per the XPath 3.1 F&O spec, simple XML documents like,
<root>
<val>1</val>
<val>2</val>
<val>3</val>
<val>4</val>
</root>
cannot be converted into JSON, by the function xml-to-json(), since the XML
input doesn't conform to structure like <array>, <number>, <string> etc
(which looks to me, a very limited capability given to the xml-to-json()
function).
Any comments would be useful.
