Abstract
A universal format is used to create a type representation of XMLType instances that are generated in various ways from various sources. An XMLType Type Tree is represented as a hierarchy of nodes, including leaf item node, composite item node, operator node, aggregate node, referred to herein as an XMLType Type Tree. An XMLType Type Tree serves as a digest of the type structure of XMLType, no matter the source of the XMLType instance or its manner of its generation and it creates one uniform abstraction of the type structure of XMLType for the data-typing analysis of XPath and XQuery during query compile time.
