XPathProcessorMBS.BackwardsCompatible as Boolean

Type	Topic	Plugin	Version	macOS	Windows	Linux	iOS	Targets
property	Saxon	MBS XML Plugin	25.0	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	❌ No	All

Whether XPath 1.0 backwards compatibility mode is to be used

In backwards compatibility mode, more implicit type conversions are allowed in XPath expressions, for example it is possible to compare a number with a string. The default is false (backwards compatibility mode is off).

Value is true if XPath 1.0 backwards compatibility is to be enabled, false if it is to be disabled.

XPathProcessorMBS.BaseURI as String

Type	Topic	Plugin	Version	macOS	Windows	Linux	iOS	Targets
property	Saxon	MBS XML Plugin	25.0	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	❌ No	All

The static base URI for XPath expressions compiled using this

The base URI is part of the static context, and is used to resolve any relative URIs appearing within an XPath expression, for example a relative URI passed as an argument to the doc() function. If no static base URI is supplied, then the current working directory is used.

XPathProcessorMBS.Caching as Boolean

Type	Topic	Plugin	Version	macOS	Windows	Linux	iOS	Targets
property	Saxon	MBS XML Plugin	25.0	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	❌ No	All

Say whether the compiler should maintain a cache of compiled expressions.

Caching if set to true, caching of compiled expressions is enabled.

If set to false, any existing cache is cleared, and future compiled expressions will not be cached until caching is re-enabled. The cache is also cleared (but without disabling future caching) if any method is called that changes the static context for compiling expressions, for example declareVariable(QName) or declareNamespace(String, String).

XPathProcessorMBS.CWD as String

Type	Topic	Plugin	Version	macOS	Windows	Linux	iOS	Targets
property	Saxon	MBS XML Plugin	25.0	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	❌ No	All

The path must end with a slash (or a backslash on Windows).

XPathProcessorMBS.Handle as Integer

property	Saxon	MBS XML Plugin	25.0	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	❌ No	All

The internal object reference.

XPathProcessorMBS.LanguageVersion as String

Type	Topic	Plugin	Version	macOS	Windows	Linux	iOS	Targets
property	Saxon	MBS XML Plugin	25.0	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	❌ No	All

Say whether an XPath 2.0, XPath 3.0, XPath 3.1 or XPath 4.0 processor is required.

Set the language version for the XPath compiler.

One of the values 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 3.05, 3.1, 4.0.

Setting the option to 1.0 requests an XPath 2.0 processor running in 1.0 compatibility mode; this is equivalent to setting the language version to 2.0 and backwards compatibility mode to true. Requesting "3.05" gives XPath 3.0 plus the extensions defined in the XSLT 3.0 specification (map types and map constructors).
