Sorry, but the test case above is incorrect due to my mistake. Please see this instead:
Execute sql statement: select ExtractValue('<L3 id="1">-1</L3>
','//L3[(@l1 + 2) < 3]');
MySQL returns -1 while other databases returns empty result set.

Hi Mr. Li, Thank you for your report. However, this is similar to the report that you have already entered into our system: https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=110480 Simply, you should read our Reference Manual and use the functionality that MySQL is supporting. The functionality that you are using right now is not supported by MySQL. Unsupported.

Description: Give XML document <A1 id="1">1</A1> and XPath query //A1[@b1 < 2] MySQL returns result 1, should return empty result set as Saxon, BaseX, Exist and Oracle db, since attribute b1 does not exist. How to repeat: Execute sql statement: select ExtractValue('<A1 id="1">1</A1> ','//A1[@b1 < 2]'); See error in output.
