CF_XQuery

Introduction to CF_XQuery

CFXQuery is a project to encourage the use of XML based DBMS. At the moment this is achieved by the provision of a robust, enterprise level XMLDBMS along with a set of ColdFusion libraries and components to interface to it.

Getting Started

Getting started couldn't be easier. CFXQuery comes with a transactional XMLDBMS if you are not already using one and a complete set of custom tags that intuitively provide a means to run XQuery compliant statements against a datasource or url. It is as easy as:

<CF_XQuery datasource="MyDB" name="getData">
for $i in document("doc")
where $i//node[@attribute = '#variable#']
return $i
</CF_XQuery>

The database server also supports an update language to facilitate the manipulation of XML documents.
