Re: [Exist-open] Default Application Structure

[Adam R. <ad...@ex...>]

Just to put the cat among the pigeons:

Both .xqm and .xql (and .xquery and .xqy for that matter) are just file
extensions, i.e. useful labels, but they all just mean XQuery to eXist.

You talk about 'modules', all of the above are modules. The XQuery spec
differentiates between 'main modules' and 'library modules', the spec does
not specify file naming for either.

You are probably thinking ad .xql as a 'main module' and .xqm as a 'library
module'? Or, perhaps the other way around! There is no consensus here, just
search the mailing list, for several opinions on this. I wish there were a
standard!
