Re: [xsl] The set datatype implemented in XPath 3.0

[Dimitre Novatchev <dnovatchev@xxxxxxxxx>]

Vladimir,

Probably using a map is one way of implementing a set (the keys in the
each key-value entry of a map, form a set).

There are also other ways to do this.

The set module can easily switch between different implementations
just by changing the import instruction.


Implementing the map datatype itself,  people will have to implement
something similar to set for keeping the keys and it would be good if
they have choice.
