Since version 1.7.0.494,the SQML elements pu:optional,pu:binding and pu:essential are substituted with pu:dot and pu:semicilon elements:
| Old | New |
|---|---|
| pu:binding[@name=';'] | pu:semicolon |
| pu:binding[@name='.'] | pu:dot |
| pu:essential[@name=';'] | pu:semicolon |
| pu:essential[@name='.'] | pu:dot |
| pu:optional[@name=';'] | pu:semicolon |
