xquery Getting started with xquery Writing static XML

Example

XML Data can be written as is in XQuery and will be found in the output.
The following code can be considered valid XQuery :

<application>
  <id>MyApp</id>
  <name>My Application</name>
  <version>1.0</version>
</application>

Note that your XQuery code must produce a valid XML document and as such is restricted to output all its data in a single root tag.

Moreover, by default most XQuery implementations will add the XML header if you omit it. By example, the above code would produce this result :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<application>
  <id>MyApp</id>
  <name>My Application</name>
  <version>1.0</version>
</application>
