Re: [basex-talk] hof:until is gone?

Hi Graydon,

Hi Christian,

Folks tell us it’s time to stop delaying BaseX 11… We’re trying hard.

I am generally in favour of 11, or I suppose 4, depending.

The good news: The only difference between hof:until [1] and fn:do-until [2] is the order of parameters. The following queries will do the same thing:

hof:until(function($a) { $a > 16 }, function($a) { $a * 2 }, 1) do-until(1, function($a) { $a * 2 }, function($a) { $a > 16 })

With fn:do-until, the input has moved to the first position, the action comes second and the predicate comes last.

Thank you!

That is helpful indeed. (Definitely my brain.)

And I can confirm it works for me with the current 11 beta.
