Saxon

As explained in https://saxonica.plan.io/boards/3/topics/8450, I am not able to run the SaxonCS 11.1 .NET release from the command line on Windows, it gives a System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException.

An additional test on Linux also failed with the same exception.

Details:

PS C:\Users\Martin Honnen\OneDrive\Documents\xslt> & 'C:\Program Files\Saxonica\SaxonCS-11.1\SaxonCS.exe' query -t -qs:"current-dateTime()"

Or using transform:

PS C:\Users\Martin Honnen\OneDrive\Documents\xslt> & 'C:\Program Files\Saxonica\SaxonCS-11.1\SaxonCS.exe' transform -t -xsl:.\processorTest3.xml -s:.\processorTest3.xml

With Ubuntu Linux 20.04:

mh@liberty-main-hp:~$ /opt/SaxonCS-11.1/SaxonCS query -t -qs:'current-dateTime()'
