DMN17 — Dependency to XPath outdated

Open Closed All
  • Key: DMN17-73
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Goldman Sachs ( Dr. Octavian Patrascoiu)
  • Summary:

    Currently, the DMN standard defines some parts of its semantics by using XPath 2.0 https://www.w3.org/TR/xpath20/
    The latest version of the standard is XPath 3.1 and users requested its features.

  • Disposition: Resolved — DMN 1.7b1
  • Disposition Summary:

    Update to XQuery 3.1 and XPath 3.1

    They are backwards compatible and provide more features that users requested. Also libraries implementing older versions are becoming risky to use tech debt.
