BaseX 8.2.2
by Christian Grün 06 Jul '15

06 Jul '15

Dear all, BaseX 8.2.2 has just been released! It contains all kinds of minor optimizations and bug fixes [1,2]. Since recently, we are adding new features of upcoming releases already in minor releases. This means that you can already use most of the features marked with "Version 8.3" in our documentation [3] with BaseX 8.2.2. Of course we won't offer features in minor releases that endanger backward compatibility. Enjoy, Christian [1] http://basex.org [2] https://github.com/BaseXdb/basex/commits/master [3] http://docs.basex.org

Released: BaseX 8.1.1. Upcoming: Finger trees
by Christian Grün 16 Apr '15

16 Apr '15

Hi all, BaseX 8.1.1 has just been released [1]. It mostly contains minor bug fixes, all of them uncritical. Since recently, our XQuery arrays are based on a Finger tree implementation [2]. This fancy data structure provides much better performance for insert and delete operations. With BaseX 8.2, this data structure is now used for arbitrary sequences. If you want to belong to our early testers, please check out the latest snapshot [3]. We are looking for your feedback! Have fun, Christian [1] http://basex.org/download [2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finger_tree [3] http://files.basex.org/releases/latest
