XPATH is complex mainly due to its abbreviated syntax. The XPATH Processor parses an input XPATH expression and generates a corresponding parse tree that is normalized to eliminate abbreviated syntax. Transformations are then applied to the parse tree to facilitate straightforward generation of a data flow execution tree. The XPATH Processor API is designed to provide a simple interface to XPATH query engines. %9 Major Qualifying Project %~ Digital WPI %W WPI
