Ask about EVENT
by Truong An Nguyen 02 Mar '12

02 Mar '12

Dear BaseX team, I'd like to ask you why my class not run correctly. I'm using EVENT to notify changes from xquery. It must print numbers from 1 to 10, 50 times for each. Why does it skip some numbers in a random manner? How can I do to correct it? Please see my attachment. Thanks in advance.

Writing JDom Elements into BaseX
by Kavuma, J.M. 01 Mar '12

01 Mar '12

Thanks; JDOM seems to be required by one of the additional API libraries (maybe WebDAV?). The core of BaseX runs without any additional libraries. > On Fri, Feb 17, 2012 at 4:52 PM, Kavuma, J.M. <J.M.Kavuma(a)tue.nl> wrote: >> Hi Christian, >> Thanks for the reply.

Running an XQuery file within a Java Client
by Kavuma, J.M. 01 Mar '12

01 Mar '12

Hm Martyin, just try the "Run" command (our Wiki may give you some more hints on the existing commands [1]) Christian PS: you are welcome to write to our basex-talk mailing list, as your questions may interest other users as well.

In the examples, queries are only sent to the server as Strings in {new XQuery("")} objects; is this the only way send queries to the server?. I would like to write a query and save it as a file say "foo.xq", and then execute it from a java a client. Is this possible? > Thanks in advance, > Martyin

Listing packages in machine-readable form w/ versioning info?
by Charles Duffy 01 Mar '12

01 Mar '12

Howdy -- As best I can tell, there are currently two ways to list installed packages: - The REPO LIST command, which returns complete output, but in a format clearly intended for human consumption. - The repo:list() function, which is more programatically accessible but returns only namespaces (no version numbers)... simply repeating a single namespace twice if two versions of that package are installed. A mechanism to access the installed package list which includes versioning and directory info (the latter to allow uninstallation of a specific version using repo:delete) would be useful.

access control
by Victor Petrov 29 Feb '12

29 Feb '12

Dear BaseX Community, is it possible to restrict user access on a per-document (or even better, per-element) basis? Imagine that multiple users are sharing the same database and the system needs to prevent XPath queries on the documents/elements which the current user doesn't have access to. If not, is there any other way this functionality could be achieved using BaseX? Thank you in advance! Regards, Victor

Bug#661297: say how to do a perfect HTML round trip, also man page still doesn't mention HTML
by jidanni＠jidanni.org 28 Feb '12

28 Feb '12

X-debbugs-Cc: basex-talk(a)mailman.uni-konstanz.de Package: basex Version: 7.1.1-2 Severity: wishlist We read basex (7.1.1-2) unstable; urgency=low * Allow non well-formed HTML to be parsed if libtagsoup-java is installed. * Updated man page with an example on how to parse HTML. But we find no such example on the man page. Also please add something to http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Parsers ... OK, I added a minimal http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Parsers#HTML_Parsers By the way http://home.ccil.org/~cowan/XML/tagsoup/ says --files Output into individual files, with html extensions changed to xhtml. Otherwise, all output is sent to the standard output. --html Output is in clean HTML: the XML declaration is suppressed, as are end-tags for the known empty elements. --omit-xml-declaration The XML declaration is suppressed. etc. Please mention how we can manipulate these via "declare option...". Also mention how to manipulate the 'SAX features and properties' mentioned. Allow us to attempt a round trip, declare option db:parser "html"; declare option output:method "html"; declare option output:version "4.01"; declare option output:doctype-public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"; declare option output:doctype-system "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"; doc("http://jidanni.org/index.html") Alas, I need to somehow use --html, and also who is putting those shape="rect" into my <a> links?? Ah, maybe --html will fix that too, http://www.xmlplease.com/shaperect . I can accept the fact that comments are stripped, but there should be a way to adjust things so one can get a closer HTML round trip.

Serialization to image files
by Andreas Karpf 27 Feb '12

27 Feb '12

Hi, I have a question, which sound a little bit strange. Is there away to serialize to image files (png, pdf etc.)? I am graceful fro every hint. I used to use Mac until two months ago. There I serialized to html documents and then used a secondary software to convert these html files to pngs. Unfortunately I can't find anything like that on Linux, with which I am working now. Best regards, Andreas Karpf
