[basex-talk] Is there an API that provides XQuery compilation results?

13 Nov 2019

      When I use the GUI application I can see some error description (even if it a little terse) when my queries are incorrect. For instance I might get:

Stopped at tableFields.xq, 27/50:
[XQST0118] Different start and end tag: <Artifact>...</Artiact>.

If I submit a query like <Artifact></Artiact>

However, I cannot seem to find an API that brings me that information? I tried:

xquery:parse("<B></C>", map {'pass':true()})

but that did not get the result I expected.  Also, while we're at at it, it would be nice to also get the optimized query.
