Resumo

Semistructured data (particularly XML) are the standard data representation for information exchange in the world-wide web. A number of query languages for XML has been proposed. Most of them follow the style of SQL. One of these languages is XQuery. In this work, we propose the construction of a prototype for the static type analysis of XQuery programs. The prototype implements XQuery operational semantics, in a way that is close to that proposed by theW3C. The implementation was built using the ASF+SDF meta-environment. The prototype described here is a first step in the construction of a practical XML query language laboratory, in which different semantics for commands may be tested.
