The compilation is normally run from the command line, using the command:
java com.saxonica.CompileQuery [options] filename...
where filename is a list of XQuery source files to be compiled. It is also possible to
use wildcards, for example *.xq to compile all the queries in a directory.
The options are as follows:
|
Option |
Meaning |
|
-package package-name |
Name of the Java package to use for the generated class(es). By default, the class(es) will not be in any package. |
|
-class class-name |
The name of the class to be generated, excluding any package name. Use only when compiling a single query. By default, a class name is constructed from the last part of the input filename, using an algorithm that strips punctuation and adds capitalization according to Java conventions. |
|
-jdir directory |
Directory to hold the generated Java source code. If the source code is generated in a package, then subdirectories will be created as necessary to represent the package structure. |
|
-e |
Explain: show the structure of the optimized query |
|
-servlet |
Generate the Java code in the form of a servlet |
|
-superclass |

generated class. Only needed if you want to customize the behavior.
Typically a user-defined subclass of |
|
-t |

|
-sa |
Query is schema-aware |
The Java code is generated in the requested file, and it must then be compiled using the Java compiler
in the normal way. The classes referenced by the generated code are all in saxon9sa.jar,
which must be on the compiler classpath.
