A minor XQuery compiler bug in Saxon 9.5.0.2

Added by Nikolay Ognyanov over 11 years ago

The XQuery compiler accepts a comma after the last parameter in function declarations. Here is an example which compiles and runs under Saxon-PE 9.5.0.2 :

xquery version "1.0";

declare function local:foo($a,)
{
    $a
};

local:foo(1)

The parameter list is defined as

ParamList ::= Param ("," Param)*

So this is clearly a bug albeit a minor one.

Thank you. I noticed today that I can file bugs myself and will do that if/when the need be.
