Issue 11602: Section: 7.13 (qvt-rtf)
Source:  (, )
Nature: Clarification
Severity: Critical
Summary:  have built a transformation engine based on QVT relations. The QVT relations example in Annex A contains a 'function' PrimitiveTypeToSqlType at the end of the example in textual syntax. This example is the only relations example in the whole spec. Nowhere is the semantics of 'function' defined nor contains the grammar of the concrete syntax a function keyword. However, 'query' is defined. Is 'function' another name for 'query'?
Resolution: QVT Base has a Function.queryExpression.
QVT 1.1 added the mapping from queryCS to Function.
Not 'nowhere' but we can do better
Revised Text: In 7.11.1.5 Function change
A function may be specified
to
Since a function is side effect free, it is often called a query. A function may be specified

Description
I have built a transformation engine based on QVT relations. The QVT relations example in Annex A contains a 'function' PrimitiveTypeToSqlType at the end of the example in textual syntax. This example is the only relations example in the whole spec. Nowhere is the semantics of 'function' defined nor contains the grammar of the concrete syntax a function keyword. However, 'query' is defined. Is 'function' another name for 'query'?
