Saxon

We have a legacy job running Saxon-EE-J 9-5-1-5 with java version openjdk 11.0.18 2023-01-17 LTS which may have grown out of it's size, after doing the job for many years.

This makes extensive use of the extension functions file:list, file:is-dir and file:list-modified for visiting folders on a path (Microsoft Netapp network system) and reading metadata on the files and folder contents.

I am wondering if there has been any unmentioned activity on these functions since 2013, which could positiviely impact the running of the job?

The only mention I found in the change logs was:

Some of the signatures of the functions in the proposed EXPath file module (see http://www.expath.org/modules/file/), implemented in Saxon-PE/EE, have altered.

We have a newer not used EE-license (before 15 nov 2020) that we could try out.

Thanks for any info. Øyvind
