Thx, Tom...

But isn't the libxml2 library not sufficient for this purpose? Note that I have not tried it yet, I am still just investigating possible solutions.

Unfortunately, no, or it is not about Postgres. The development of libxml2 is frozen :-/ and there are only bugfix releases. What I know, there are only some experimental enhancements, but nobody has finalized it.

XPath 2.0 is much more complex than XPath - it is a new language.

Please, don't send top post mails to this mailing list

    I don't know of anyone actively working on that.  The difficulty is
    that we don't especially want to write/maintain such logic ourselves,
    but there don't seem to be any suitable libraries available that
    (a) can be called from C and (b) have a compatible license.
