[xquery-talk] ANN: Stylus Studio 5 XML IDE Adds XQuery Development Support for Saxon

[Ivan Pedruzzi]

Dear XQuery Developer,

The Stylus Studio Team is pleased to announce new support for the Saxon
7 XQuery processor in Stylus Studio 5's advanced XQuery editing and
Mapping tools.

Stylus Studio 5 is now available for free trial download at:
http://www.stylusstudio.com/xml_download.html

Stylus Studio's support for XQuery development includes tools such as:

XQuery Editor - Full support for editing and testing any XQuery
expression.

XQuery Mapper - Build XQuery code using intuitive drag-and-drop
techniques and Stylus Studio's shortcut menus. Automatically create
FLOWR statements and build XPath expressions using nothing more than a
click of the mouse. You can view the XQuery code that Stylus Studio
creates as you use the Mapper - the source and Mapper are fully editable
and synchronized.

XQuery Profiler - Benchmark and tune advanced XQuery expressions using
customizable performance metrics. Use the standard report, or use Stylus
Studio's data to create your own. 

XQuery Debugger - Set breakpoints and step through the evaluation of any
XQuery expression to locate and eliminate XQuery errors. 

XQuery Scenarios - See how your XQuery performs against a variety of
input and output documents, set parameter values, and configure
Profiling options.

Additionally, Stylus Studio's benchmark support for XSLT includes many
of the same tools and features provided for XQuery, including support
for the Saxon XSLT processor:


XSLT Editor - A truly XSLT-centric and highly productive editing module
for XSLT development. 

XSLT Mapper - Create XSLT graphically, using intuitive drag-and-drop to
define xsl:for-each, xsl:value-of, and other XSLT statements. View the
XSLT Stylus Studio creates while you map. 

XSLT Profiler - Record performance metrics such as call tree execution
time, execution time by XSLT element, or log step-by-step execution
times. 

WYSIWYG XSLT Designer - Visually develop XSLT stylesheets to transform
XML to HTML. 

XSLT Debugger - Quickly identify bugs in any XSLT stylesheet. Debugging
features let you watch variables; Call Stack and Backmap Stack windows
display processing history and let you quickly jump back into the code. 

XSLT Scenarios - Use scenarios to specify parameters and post-processing
options, processors (including Saxon, Xalan-J, and .NET), and Profiling
options.
