[basex-talk] types & encoding when talking to BaseX server

Hi, I have 2 questions regarding: https://svn.uni-konstanz.de/dbis/basex/trunk/api/etc/java/BaseXClient.java a) create() takes an InputStream. Which character encoding is assumed (I'm guessing UTF-8?) b) Query.next() returns a String. Is there a way/need to determine the type of the Query result (e.g., String, boolean, etc.)? (Or is an XQuery's result type statically determinable, in which case this would not be needed?) - Godmar
