inspect functions and %private
by jean-marc Mercier 06 Dec '13

06 Dec '13

Hi, To report a small issue in the inspect functions module with %private declaration. The following code runs perfectly : declare %private function local:test(){()}; for $fun in inspect:functions() return "gotcha" However, If the function test is located in another module, say test, then the following code import module namespace test="http://www.example.com/test" at test.xq"; for $fun in inspect:functions() return "gotcha" raise an exception. Cheers, Jean-Marc

the slf4j in basex is 1.5.8, compatibility issue took place
by johnny 05 Dec '13

05 Dec '13

Hello there: When I use basex with a gradle project, it failed at runtime because of a transitive dependency problem: basex used slf4j 1.5.8, and the other packages in the projects used higher version. I attempted to resolve this by following this link, it didn't work: http://forums.gradle.org/gradle/topics/how_to_exclude_transitive_dependency Do you guys have plan to upgrade the slf4j in basex? I still prefer to use the repo as opposed to building my own jar out of the source. thanks, Johnny

csv-parser
by Lars Johnsen 04 Dec '13

Hi all When importing CSV files, it seems that BaseX is parsing fields for balanced bracketing and quotes (a single quote or bracket causes trouble). Is it possible to turn that off, so that files are processed based only on delimiter? I couldn't find any information in the documentation. All the best, Lars

Error while adding a document.
by Tojo Rakotoarison 04 Dec '13

Hello to the BaseX Team ! I am new to BaseX and exploring its functionalities. I have created an empty database named 'NBS' and I have got a script in which I have the following lines : OPEN NBS SHOW USERS ADD nbs_1Chr.xml When I am trying to run it in the basexclient, it raises an error and does not want to add the document. Here is the output. Do you have any idea where the problem comes from ? The XML file nbs_1Chr.xml is in the current working directory. Thank you very much ! --- > RUN insert_nbs_test.bxs Username Read Write Create Admin ------------------------------------ admin X X X X 1 Users. Database 'NBS' was opened in 1.93 ms. Improper use?

user.dir and BaseX Add Command
by Simon Görke 03 Dec '13

03 Dec '13

Hi together, I have a question regarding the baseX add command. We change the user.dir system property in the basexserver.bat as shown below: java -Duser.dir=c:/tmp -cp "%CP%" %VM% org.basex.BaseXServer %* This is done with the background of defining an export/import directory without using absolute paths with the add command itself (we deploy our setup from version control to different directory environments, and it should work "out-of-the-box"). 1. With exporting, this seems to work fine except for a minor issue: in addition to the successful export to c:\tmp, an empty folder is created in the basex/bin directory with the name of the exported db. 2. With adding, we always get the error message " Resource "C:/tmp/test.xml" not found.", even if test.xml exists in the filesystem at c:\tmp. However, if we copy test.xml to the basex/bin-folder, the add command is successful. It seems that though the error message relates to the correct (modified) path, baseX uses the default one when trying to add the file? Would it be possible to fix this issue, or is there another way to achieve the intended behavior? Best Regards Simon

Results from ft:extract()
by Lars Johnsen 03 Dec '13

03 Dec '13

Hello all When using ft:extract() on nodes, it seems to clip into the match itself too often. Is it possible to have ft:extract() leave as much before the match as after? For example, here are two results for "spise lunsj" (= eat lunch (language is Norwegian)) the first is as it should be, while the second have half of the matched string clipped . The result is obtained first as a set of hits using fulltext search [text() contains text {$terms} all], then each hit is processed through ft:extract($hit, $terms): ... gjerne komme for å spise lunsj med meg på Harrods. Da skal jeg servere hjortetestikler fra eiendommen min i Skottland. Vi trenger nemlig alle store... ... de franske VM-spillerne hjem til Paris. Der ble de mottatt av fans både på Charles de Gaulle-flyplassen og da de ankom Elysee-palasset for å spise ... Regards, Lars G Johnsen National Library of Norway

XQUERY command and PHP
by Tsvetanka Georgieva-Trifonova 02 Dec '13

02 Dec '13

Hi Basex, My question is about the command XQUERY [query]. Does it work with any XQuery queries or only with XPath? I tried the following: <?php include("BaseXClient.php"); // create session $session = new Session("localhost", 1984, "admin", "admin"); $session->execute("open myfirstdatabase"); echo $session->execute("xquery for $n in //country[name = 'Switzerland'] return $n") ; // close session $session->close(); ?> This example causes the error: [XPST0003] Incomplete 'window' expression.' But the following example: <?php include("BaseXClient.php"); // create session $session = new Session("localhost", 1984, "admin", "admin"); $session->execute("open myfirstdatabase"); echo $session->execute("xquery //country[name = 'Switzerland']") ; // close session $session->close(); ?> is executed without error. The difference between the two examples is that one uses XQuery and another - XPath expression. Please, tell me whether the command XQUERY can be used with any XQuery queries and how exactly? Thanks & regards, Tsvetanka
