Hello list, I have a file some.xml containing <xml>hello world!</xml> and I can read it in BaseX code like this: java org.basex.BaseX "declare namespace fn='http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-functions';fn:doc('some.xml')" However I cannot use fn:unparsed-text() from a command line, when a namespace declaration with a protocol is present. I have tried to do java org.basex.BaseX "declare namespace fn='http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-functions';fn:unparsed-text('some.xml')" but I keep getting this: Stopped at ., 1/79: [FOUT1170] Static Base URI is undefined. This is strange, because the command works fine without the namespace declaration: java org.basex.BaseX "unparsed-text('some.xml')" What can I do to use both namespace declarations and fn:unparsed-text from within a single command line? Best regards Gunther
