Hi, I am generating java code from xquery using the saxon processor.Everything works well, except when i try to add the following it does not show the added doctype declaration in the result. declare namespace saxon ="http://saxon.sf.net/"; declare option saxon:output "doctype-system = blah.dtd"; when the new xml is generated i do not see a <!DOCTYPE "blah..> declaration add :-( I was wondering if anyone could help me out.

I can't reproduce this. When I run this query: declare namespace saxon ="http://saxon.sf.net/"; declare option saxon:output "doctype-system = blah.dtd"; <a/> I get this output: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE a SYSTEM "blah.dtd"> <a/> I'm running it from the command line (using the .NET product) like this: c:...\bin\Query c:\temp\test.xq and the same result under Java. How are you running it?

You'll have to check with DataDirect, but I suspect that Stylus Studio is serializing the output itself rather than using the Saxon serializer.

If you want the Saxon serialization options to have any effect, then you have to be using Saxon as both the query engine and the serialization engine. I think I've demonstrated to you that when you do that, it works. But of course it's perfectly possible to run a query through Saxon and then serialize the result yourself. I've no idea how Saxon is integrated into Eclipse - you'll have to ask the people who did the integration.
