CSV, text equivalents to json:parse() and parse-xml()?
by Charles Duffy 27 Mar '12

27 Mar '12

Howdy -- For JSON and XML, mechanisms to generate an in-memory document from an xs:string() exist. For CSV or text inputs, however, I'm unclear on how to do this without declaring options and invoking db:add() -- not ideal when the content being handled is intended only for transient, one-time-only processing. Pointers? (If there exists a mechanism to invoke any available parser without necessarily creating a new database, this would be ideal). Thanks!

Mechanism to serialize maps in output?
by Charles Duffy 27 Mar '12

27 Mar '12

Howdy -- Right now, trying to inspect a map (ie. returning one from a query) results in FOTY0012. This is unfortunate from the perspective of allowing users to examine the objects their logic creates. Has thought been given to defining a serialization-friendly way of representing maps, perhaps as XML entities under their own namespace?

Java functions, packages, and ADMIN privileges
by Charles Duffy 22 Mar '12

22 Mar '12

Howdy -- The ability to call arbitrary Java code from XQuery being accessible only to users with ADMIN privileges is generally sensible for obvious reasons. However, it would be useful for users with ADMIN privileges to be able to install packages in such a way as to make classes contained therein accessible to less-privileged users. Does such a mechanism already exist? If not, thoughts on feasibility?

webdav issue using oxygen
by Maximilian Gärber 22 Mar '12

22 Mar '12

Hi, following the steps on http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Integrating_oXygen for accessing resources via webdav, I guess it should be possible to change and save xml files. Doing so, actually empties the db and adds a "RAW" xml resource to it. This happens with the latest Snapshot (7.2). Any other Oxygen users out there? Regards, Max

Ask about BaseX event for more than one context
by truc.cam＠emotive.de 22 Mar '12

22 Mar '12

Dear BaseX team, Please see the attachment. When I use events for 2 contexts, just the first one can notify.If the notification of the 2rd context happens, the result should be "1 2 3 4". If I replace "xquery2.execute(context2)" by "xquery2.execute(context1)", I will receive right result. But this is not what I want to do. Thanks in advance. Best regards
