Hello,
I’ve encountered an issue with the new request:parameter-map function in BaseX. It throws an error when called with a query string that contains repeated parameters, such as ?a=1&a=2:
[SERE0023] Value has more than one item.
Is this behavior expected? As far as I know, query parameters may be repeated. For example, this can occur when submitting a form with checkboxes using the GET method. Additionally, JavaScript provides the URLSearchParams.getAll(<name>) method, which returns an array of values for a given parameter <name>.
Wouldn't it be more logical for request:parameter-map to also return an array in such cases?
I’ve tested this issue with BaseX 12 on Windows, using the following RESTXQ function:
declare %rest:GET %rest:path("test") %output:method("json") function page:test() { request:parameter-map() };
Any insights are appreciated.
Regards, Tom De Herdt
