XSpec 0.3.0 - A unit test framework for XSLT & XQuery
by Florent Georges 21 Sep '11

21 Sep '11

Hi, I am proud to announce a new version of XSpec, the XSLT and XQuery unit testing framework. The main changes are: - improved XQuery support - delivered as an EXPath package - new tests (of XSpec itself) - numerous bug fixes - new XProc harnesses for several processors - improved shell scripts and Ant build file - oXygen framework for editing - RNC schema for Emacs nXML mode You can download it, as usual, from the project website at: http://code.google.com/p/xspec/downloads/ As BaseX supports the EXPath packaging system, you can just give it the XAR package contained in the release ZIP file. New XProc pipeline "test harnesses" have developed. They have been developed with XML Calabash, and allow you to run your tests on (in alphabetical order): - BaseX (using the standalone processor) - eXist (by sending the query through the REST interface) - MarkLogic (by using Calabash's extension steps) - Saxon, both XSLT and XQuery - Zorba As always, feedback welcome on this list. Enjoy! Thanks to the whole XSpec team! Regards, -- Florent Georges http://fgeorges.org/ http://h2oconsulting.be/

POST with custom content type
by Ralf Jung 21 Sep '11

21 Sep '11

Hi list, the BaseX [1] REST interface requires me to send POST requests with a content- type of "application/query+xml". Is it possible to send such requests with Orbeon? As far as I know, the only way to send POST requests is to use an XForms submission, which seems to force the content-type to "application/xml" - at least, if I change the serialize attribute to the other content type, no serialization is performed at all. Kind regards, Ralf [1] http://basex.org/

resolver.jar and catalog problem
by Loke 20 Sep '11

20 Sep '11

Hi. I followed the instructions in the docs to enable the resolver.jar as a lib. I edited the various executables in the bin directory, but still the GUI to create a new database does not enable the options to define a catalog file. Resolver.jar is copied in lib folder and my basexserver file is as follows: #!/bin/bash # Path to this script PWD=`dirname $0` # Paths to distributed files or source directories BASEX=$PWD/../BaseX.jar # Options for virtual machine VM=-Xmx512m # Classpath LIB=$PWD/../lib CP=$BASEX:$LIB/lucene-analyzers-3.0.2.jar:$LIB/tagsoup-1.2.jar:$LIB/snowball.jar:$LIB/resolver.jar # Run code java -cp "$BASEX" $VM org.basex.BaseXServer "$@" I have done the same to my basexgui as well, but to no avail. I am very new to XML concepts such as namespace. Thanks Loke

Hi, and thanks to all of you who have already contributed to the documentation of BaseX [1]. Due to increasing spamming activities, new Wiki accounts must now be confirmed before you can start Everyone will get an account who's asking for it, though. Indeed we are grateful for any edits in our documentation, no matter how minor they may seem. In other words: feel free to register and start editing today!

server on Mac OS X?
by C. M. Sperberg-McQueen 16 Sep '11

16 Sep '11

I'm a little by confused by the documentation at http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Startup I think I'm confused in two ways. First, I seem to be unclear on the similarities and differences among the various top-level programs that seem to be runnable. (I've never run anything but the GUI, or felt the need to do so until now, but I'm trying to figure out how to use the BaseX server in a Web application.) Is there any guide to how these things differ from each other? Second, the document says there are several different ways to start the BaseX server: > • Double click on the BaseX Server (Start) icon. This will also start the JAX-RX server. > • Run one of the basexserver/basexserver.bat scripts > • Execute the command java -cp BaseX.jar org.basex.BaseXServer I'm confused because - I don't see any icon labeled "BaseX Server (Start)". - Neither Spotlight (the Mac OS X file-system search) nor 'find' is able to locate any directory named 'basexserver' in or near the place where I installed BaseX. Running the 'java' command from the command line does seem to work (at least, it produces the message "Server was started"). Is the BaseX Server (Start) icon provided for some but not all operating systems / in some but not all downloads? Or did I screw up the installation and not do it right? The document http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Start_Scripts seems to suggest that the scripts are expected to be part of a Mac OS X installation as well as a Linux and Windows installation. What I downloaded was BaseX671.dmg, and all I found to install there was BaseX.app, which does not, as far as I have been able to tell, include any shell scripts. Perhaps the download packages have been prepared on the assumption that those who want to run the server separately from the GUI will download the platform-independent package? I'll be grateful for any light anyone can shed on this. Thanks! -- **************************************************************** * C. M.

basex-api project
by Lukas Lewandowski 16 Sep '11

16 Sep '11

Hey, I checked out the latest sources from github (basex and basex-api). In eclipse basex works fine, but eclipse shows errors when building basex-api. The maven container isn't initialized correctly. some error from the output: 16.09.11 12:07:15 MESZ: Maven Builder: FULL_BUILD requireFullBuild 16.09.11 12:07:15 MESZ: [WARN] 16.09.11 12:07:15 MESZ: [WARN] Some problems were encountered while building the effective model for org.basex:basex-api:jar:6.8-SNAPSHOT 16.09.11 12:07:15 MESZ: [WARN] 'build.plugins.plugin.version' for org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin is missing. @ line 106, column 15 16.09.11 12:07:15 MESZ: [WARN] 'build.plugins.plugin.version' for org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin is missing. @ line 118, column 15 16.09.11 12:07:15 MESZ: [WARN] 'build.plugins.plugin.version' for org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-jar-plugin is missing. @ line 114, column 15 16.09.11 12:07:15 MESZ: [WARN] 16.09.11 12:07:15 MESZ: [WARN] It is highly recommended to fix these problems because they threaten the stability of your build. 16.09.11 12:07:15 MESZ: [WARN] 16.09.11 12:07:15 MESZ: [WARN] For this reason, future Maven versions might no longer support building such malformed projects.

6.8 vs. 6.7.1 http:send-request
by Kevin S. Clarke 15 Sep '11

15 Sep '11

Hi, I'm using 6.7.1 but thought I'd check out the current 6.8 head from github. With 6.7.1, I can put an https URL in a http:send-request() call and it works fine, but trying this with the 6.8 version, I'm told "[FOHC0001] An HTTP error occurred: Invalid URL." If I change the URL to 'http' though it works. I'm just interested in experimenting with the json functions. Is there something I have to do differently in 6.8 to send an HTTPS request? Thanks, Kevin
