Dear BaseX aficionados,
We are very happy to announce the release of BaseX 9.0!
The new version of our XML database system and XQuery 3.1 processor includes some great new features and a vast number of minor improvements and optimizations. It’s both the usage of BaseX in productive environments as well as the valuable feedback of our open source users that make BaseX better and better, and that allow and motivate us to keep going. Thanks to all of you!
Along with the new release, we invite you to visit our relaunched homepage: http://basex.org/.
Java 8 is now required to run BaseX. The most prominent features of Version 9.0 are:
XQUERY - Comprehensive extensions in the internal XQuery optimizer framework - Dynamic hash joins rewritings of general comparisons - Register query jobs as persistent services - Process very large CSV files via the new CSV 'xquery' format - Update Module: higher-order functions for performing updates - Unified static typing, including maps, arrays and function items - COPYNODE: Lightweight copying of XML fragments - ENFORCEINDEX: Enforce rewriting for index access
STORAGE - Improved database compression (short strings, whitespaces)
WEB APPLICATIONS - Permissions layer: Unified definition of RESTXQ access patterns - RESTXQ: Full support for client- and server-side quality factors - REST: Run BaseX command scripts - Web server upgrade to Jetty 9
REPOSITORIES - Combined packaging mechanism (XQuery and Java) - Java Packaging: Bundling of additional libraries
DISTRIBUTIONS - Revised detection and configuration of BaseX home directory - Windows executable: better detection of Java libraries
DBA: BASEX DATABASE ADMINISTRATION - Improved editing and evaluation of XQuery modules - Revised file, session and job management
More details can be found on our homepage. We are looking forward to your feedback.
Enjoy and have fun, Christian, BaseX Team
Christian and the rest of the BaseX team,
Congratulations! Looking forward to getting into the official release and seeing what's new.

Dear XML and XQuery aficionados,
It’s been exactly 5 months ago when BaseX 9 was released, and we are happy to announce version 9.1 of our XML framework, database system and XQuery 3.1 processor! The latest release is online:
The most exciting addition is support for WebSockets, which enable you to do bidirectional (full-duplex) client/server communication with XQuery web applications:
http://docs.basex.org/wiki/WebSockets
Moreover, we have added convenient syntax extensions (ternary if, Elvis operator, if without else) to XQuery. Some of them may be made available in other implementations of XQuery as well (we’ll keep you updated):
http://docs.basex.org/wiki/XQuery_Extensions#Expressions
Other new features are as follows:
XQuery: - set local locks via pragmas and function annotations - Database Module: faster processing of value index functions - Jobs Module: record and return registration times - ENFORCEINDEX option: support for predicates with dynamic values - Update Module, update:output: support for caching maps and arrays
GUI: - Mac, Windows: Improved rendering support for latest Java versions - XQuery editor: choose and display current query context
Visit http://docs.basex.org to get more information on the added features.
Your feedback is welcome! Have fun,
Christian BaseX Team
CHEERS!
