<title>Design and features</title>
<box title="Design and features" link="design">
<p> Our point of view and our guideline for the design of CDuce is
that a programming language for XML should take XML types (
DTD, XML Schema, Relax-NG, ...) seriously into account.
The benefits are the following:</p>
<ul>
<li> <b>static verifications</b>
(e.g.: ensure that a transformation produces a valid document
<footnote>
Valid with respect to validity constraints
that can be expressed by the type system (thus typically excluding
constraints like <a
href="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml#sec-attribute-types">ID</a> and
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml#sec-attribute-types">IDREF</a>).
</footnote>);</li>
<li> in particular, we aim at <b>smooth and safe</b> compositions
of XML transformations, and incremental programming;</li>
<li> static <b>optimizations</b> and <b>efficient execution model</b>
(knowing the type of a document is crucial to extract information
efficiently).</li>
</ul>
<p>
Some features particular to CDuce:
</p>
<ul>
<li> XML objects can be manipulated as first-class citizen values:
elements, sequences, tags, characters and strings, attribute
sets; sequences of XML elements can be specified by
<b>regular expressions</b>, which also apply to
characters strings; </li>
<li> functions themselves are <b>first-class</b> values, they
can be manipulated, stored in data structure, returned by
a function,...</li>
<li> a powerful <b>pattern matching</b> operation can perform
complex extractions from sequences of XML elements; </li>
<li> a rich <b>type algebra</b>, with recursive types and arbitrary
boolean combinations (union, intersection, complement) allows
precise definitions of data structures and XML types;
<b>general purpose types</b> and types constructors are taken seriously
(products, extensible records, arbitrary precision integers with interval
constraints, Unicode characters);</li>
<li> <b>polymorphism</b> through a natural notion of <b>subtyping</b>,
and <b>overloaded functions</b> with dynamic dispatch; </li>
<li> an highly-effective <b>type-driven compilation schema</b>. </li>
</ul>
<p>CDuce is fast, functional,
type-safe, and <b>conforms to basic standards</b>: <a href="http://www.unicode.org">Unicode</a>, <a href="http://www.w3.org/XML/">XML</a>, <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml#dt-doctype">DTD</a>,
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names/">Namespaces</a> are fully
supported, <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-1/">XML Schema</a>
is partially <local href="manual_schema">supported</local>.
</p>
<p>
<local href="bench">Preliminary benchmarks</local> suggest that despite the
overhead for static type verification, a CDuce
program can run faster (30% to 60%) than an equivalent XSLT
style-sheet (we performed benchmarks with
the xsltproc tools from the Gnome libxslt library).

The name CDuce was coined by <a

<box title="Research directions" link="research">
<p>Our plans concerning the design of the core language
include:</p>
<ul>
<li>interface with other languages and type systems
<footnote>
An <local href="manual_interfacewithocaml">
interface between CDuce and OCaml
</local> is currently being
implemented.
</footnote>
;
</li>
<li>efficient evaluation strategies, high-level optimizations;</li>
<li>a module system to support incremental programming;</li>
<li>parametric polymorphism;</li>
<li>XML-friendly primitives, to mimic XSLT transformations.</li>
</ul>
<p>
Apart from the core language design and implementation,
our research projects include:
</p>
<ul>
<li> integration of a <b>query sub-language</b> into CDuce, using
types as a primary optimization strategy for request evaluation;</li>
<li> study of <b>security</b> (confidentiality, ...) properties in the
setting of XML transformations.</li>

We wrote several <local href="papers">technical papers</local> about
the language design and its theoretical foundations.

<box title="XDuce and CDuce" link="xduce">
<p>
The starting point of our work on CDuce was the
<a href="http://xduce.sourceforge.net/">XDuce</a> language developed
at the UPenn DB group. Many of CDuce features originate from XDuce.
Some of our achievements:
</p>
<ul>
<li>integration of first-class and overloaded functions, arbitrary boolean
connectives, and extensible (or not) records, to the semantic
definition of subtyping;</li>
<li>a subtyping algorithm without backtracking;</li>
<li>extending pattern matching to capture non consecutive
subsequences; removing tail condition for exact matching
(they arrived independently to another solution);</li>
<li>efficient evaluation model that takes profit of static type information;</li>
</ul>
<p>
Of course, the work on XDuce continued during our, and they
developed nice ideas: mixed attribute-element types (same
expressive power as our records, but they can sometimes avoid exponential
explosion where we cannot); powerful filter operation.
