1 | 1 | XML-handling functions for PostgreSQL |
2 | 2 | ===================================== |

|
| 4 | + DEPRECATION NOTICE: From PostgreSQL 8.3 on, there is XML-related |
| 5 | + functionality based on the SQL/XML standard in the core server. |
| 6 | + That functionality covers XML syntax checking and XPath queries, |
| 7 | + which is what this module does as well, and more, but the API is |
| 8 | + not at all compatible. It is planned that this module will be |
| 9 | + removed in PostgreSQL 8.4 in favor of the newer standard API, so |
| 10 | + you are encouraged to try converting your applications. If you |
| 11 | + find that some of the functionality of this module is not |
| 12 | + available in an adequate form with the newer API, please explain |
| 13 | + your issue to pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org so that the deficiency |
| 14 | + can be addressed. |
