Hi, I am considering to use XPath as a query language within a WebDAV DASL grammar. This means client software can submit a query where the condition is expressed as XPath expression applied to the WebDAV properties of the resource(s). As WebDAV properties can be in "any" namespace, I need to allow binding of namespace names to prefixes, so that the prefixes can be used in the XPath expression. However, most Java-based XSLT engines allow to create Java objects (and call their methods) by specifying a special namespace, which currently is proprietary. This means that blindly executing the query after binding the namespace prefixes, a client can get access to all objects in the system. Obviously, one needs a way to prohibit execution of extension functions... Is there a portable way to to it? If not, how could I achieve this with Xalan?
