Thanks, Christian.
By the way, I found a workaround for my immediate need: putting all the function-lookup usage in module functions instead of a global variable.

Hi Amanda,
It is high time to tackle an existing GitHub issue that most likely relates to the same bug [1].
Thanks for your observation, Christian

Hi, all.
I'm seeing an error in BaseX when I use function-lookup in both a global variable and a function, where the function relies on the variable. I reduced the situation to the following small query:
xquery version "3.1"; declare variable $local:lookup := function-lookup(QName("nonexistent", "nonexistent"), 1); declare function local:myfcn() { let $f := ($local:lookup, function-lookup(QName('http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-functions%27,%27string'), 1))[1] return $f('a') }; local:myfcn()
When I run it with BaseX 11.1, I get [XQDY0054] Static variable depends on itself: $local:lookup
When I run it with Saxon-HE 12, I don't get this error.
Is there anything I can do in my code to avoid this error?
Thanks, Amanda
