Hi Lukas,

Hi Sebastian,

…

As for now, to make your example work, you could either
switch on the 'writeback' command of BaseX [1], or
process the return value of fn:base-uri to make it a
working path expression.

I actually tried using the ‘writeback’ switch already. But that took suspiciously long. It turned
out, that all files were touched by the write back feature, not only the affected files.

BTW: My solution was to fix the URI: put ($temp, replace(base-uri($doc),’file:/’,’file://’))

Sebastian

Hello,
In an fn:put(TempNode,URI) I would expect base-uri(Node) as a URI parameter to work.

But base-uri(Node) returns on Windows “file:/C:/somepath/somefile.xml”,
which does not work, because the URI cannot be opened. The URI “/somepath/somefile.xml” works.

And file://C/somepath/somefile.xml does also work.
Is this a bug?

example:
let $doc:= doc(“bla.xml”)
put(
copy $temp := $doc
        modify replace

                  value of node $temp/n
                  with lower-case($temp/n)

           return $temp,base-uri($doc)
)
(: this does not work, but should it not? :)
best regards,

Sebastian
