standalone vs GUI character parsing
by Bridger Dyson-Smith 13 Jun '17

13 Jun '17

Hi all - I'm able to create a database with the GUI from an XML document that contains an invalid character (U+0000) -- I guess BaseX does some character scrubbing, which is awesome :). When I try creating a database with the same input XML document from the commandline (using the basex executable), I get an error message. Here are my commands in standalone mode: BaseX 8.5.3 [Standalone] Try 'help' to get more information. > create db test-bad-char /usr/home/bridger/src/another-test.xml "/… [View More]

Tail Recursion Error on startup
by buddyonweb-software＠yahoo.com 11 Mar '17

11 Mar '17

When we start up BaseX (whether the server or the GUI) and run a particular a query against a particular .xqm file, we always get a tail recursion error. Error:[bxerr:BASX0005] Stack Overflow: Try tail recursion? If we attempt to execute it again (sometimes twice, but have done so repeatedly up to 5 times), the error goes away and all is fine. Is there anything you can suggest or anything we can provide you to see how to eliminate this. This is particularly problematic on our server when … [View More]

Namespaces in element constructors
by Bridger Dyson-Smith 02 Jan '17

02 Jan '17

Hi all - I think that I weak grasp of the practical requirements, but I'm unable to find a reference in the spec to clarify what's happening in the following: I have a constructor: return( for $item in $file-list let $item-less := replace($item, '^\d{1,}-', '') (: returns "missing" supplemental files :) where ($item-less[(not(. = ($files-titles, $excludes)))]) or ($item-less[(. = $files-titles)]) return( <relatedItem> <title>{$item-less}</title> … [View More]

Schema Validation issues
by George Sofianos 02 Jan '17

02 Jan '17

Because of issues with schema validation (can't properly use doc() in the validate function - see https://github.com/BaseXdb/basex/issues/1324), I'm not using BaseX to do schema validation in my workflow. But I needed it today to make some result comparisons with my own implementation of XML Validator, and I noticed that using the beta Xerces version which is documented in the wiki <http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Validation_Module#XML_Schema_Validation> can make it crash, so I thought … [View More]

TagSoup and html5 support
by Alexander Shpack 21 Dec '16

21 Dec '16

Hi team! As you know, TagSoup 1.2.1 doesn't support correct HTML5 tag nesting. For example, this string Test will be parsed as But html5 code <aside>Test</aside> will be parsed as is. How to implement in BaseX the html5 support? I've found this project, but not sure that it's possible to add it into basex code https://github.com/UniversityofWarwick/tagsoup-html5 Thanks!

How to save Table views as spreadsheet
by kalamegham＠gmail.com 21 Dec '16

21 Dec '16

I am new to BaseX which I find as a powerful tool to work on xml data. The BaseX GUI is great. My question is: how can I save the Tables in the visualization as spreadsheet(s). I understand there are multiple views but it should be possible to save them as separate tables or tabs in a single spreadsheet. I apologize if this has been addresses in an earlier talk. I would like to know if there is a way to quickly search the base-talk archives without having to look through them all (… [View More]

Understanding the WRITEBACK option, help
by Enea Parimbelli 20 Dec '16

20 Dec '16

Dear BaseX folks, I'm having trouble understanding the subtleties of the WRITEBACK option. I found this issue report that seems to describe my case as well but it refers to a rather old baseX version. https://github.com/BaseXdb/basex/issues/848 As I understand it the WRITEBACK option will only work for files directly read from disk and not for those that have been added to a database at time of creation. I have created my database with a input path that already held all the xmls I needed to … [View More]
