Re: [basex-talk] Sequence of operations in a .bxs file?

The execution is imperative (from top to bottom). The attribute index is enabled by default, so you can drop CREATE INDEX: CREATE DB wlc-trees ./trees RUN ./xquery/add-wlc-verses-words.xq OPTIMIZE If you want to keep your attribute index updated, you can enabled the UPDINDEX flag: SET UPDINDEX true CREATE DB wlc-trees ./trees RUN ./xquery/add-wlc-verses-words.xq Hope this helps.
