Thanks for your reply Martin.

As I understand the function has been removed from the product? Are there other non-backward compatible changes between the versions I mentioned?

Kind regards,

https://www.saxonica.com/documentation12/index.html#!changes/extensions/10-11 indeed says "The saxon:path() function is dropped: use the standard fn:path() function instead.".

See https://www.saxonica.com/documentation12/index.html#!changes for all changes.

Search for saxon:path in the documentation and it will tell you:

https://www.saxonica.com/documentation12/index.html#!changes/extensions/10-11

I'm afraid if you make a big jump in Saxon versions (9.8 came out in 2017) then you're going to hit a number of such things (and it makes our policy of deprecating something one release and then withdrawing it the next rather pointless).

In general, when a feature that we introduce as a Saxon vendor extension makes it into the standard and becomes interoperable, we eventually (usually after some years) withdraw the Saxon version in favour of the standard version.
