GUI
by Giuseppe Celano 29 Jun '18

29 Jun '18

Hi, I have updated Java (10 from 8) and I cannot apparently customize the GUI anymore on my Mac (if I click on BaseXGUI > aboutBaseXGUI, I cannot access the relevant tabs). Is this a known issue? Moreover, if I start the GUI from the command line, I keep getting the warning message "Illegal reflective access by org.basex.gui.GUIMacOSX". Is there a way to avoid that? Thanks.

Tracing query execution
by Iwan Briquemont 29 Jun '18

29 Jun '18

Hello, I use BaseX mostly for boolean queries, I have a hardware database and I check if specific hardware support features I need. It works great but when something is not as expected, it's hard to find out the reason. E.g. given an expression like: $some-value = $some-list and (custom:predicate() or $x > $y) I would like to know why it's true or false. For now I add trace() manually on the subexpressions, rerun, add trace to more specific parts, etc. Ideally I would want to break down the query execution so it shows the values of subparts of the query to pinpoint why it is false, e.g. have an output like: $some-value = $some-list and (custom:predicate() or $x > $y) -> false()$some-value = $some-list -> true()$some-value -> 1$some-list -> (1, 2, ..., 10)custom:predicate() or $x > $y -> false()custom:predicate() -> false()... # It should also go inside the function$x > $y -> false()$x -> 10$y -> 11 Any ideas how it could be achieved? Looking at the code, maybe a debug() (like iter() or item()) method could be added to Expr objects which would trace the expression query, file, line and the result of the expression (or probably the first x characters of the result to avoid huge output)? With an xquery function which would trigger it. I also thought of modifying the query programmatically to add trace() calls but that seems overly complicated. Best regards, Iwan

Distributing service as EAR
by Mauro Mugnaini 29 Jun '18

29 Jun '18

Hi All, We are used to implement and deploy services into containers (Tomcat, JBoss, Wildfly, ...) as single WAR and for this kind of work we always implement starting from the BaseX WAR distribution. Now, looking in depth into the structure of the WAR, we noted that all the third party JARs, BaseX common classes JAR and XQJ bridge JAR are located into WEB-INF/lib folder whereas HTTP related classes (filters, servlet, listener and so on) are located inside the WEB-INF/classes. Moreover a possibly useless (?) WEB-INF folder with another web.xml and another jetty.xml in the same WEB-INF/classes. My question is: is there any reason why files in WEB-INF/classes are not “jarred” into a single archive and placed into WEB-INF/lib folder? Are there any cons doing that way according to your experience? The objective is to optimize the EAR content, where several WARs of services are packaged into a single EAR file, by factoring out all the JARs into the /lib folder of the EAR. Thank you and regards, Mauro

Cancelling long running query
by Shaun Flynn 29 Jun '18

29 Jun '18

Hello there, I have had a look in the documentation and was wondering, is it possible to cancel a query once it has been submitted using ClientQuery/ClientSession? Would calling close() on ClientQuery do that? Shaun

Copy Path in GUI seems to recently not give correct path for target
by Alex Everitt 28 Jun '18

28 Jun '18

Hi, I'm fairly certain there is a bug in the GUI now. I often right click in the GUI and choose Copy Path (from tree and map etc.) and until recently that worked every time. Now I'm getting paths that are just obviously not correct from the second level of the tree down. The first level of the tree is ok. db:open("bigale_order_list_since_2017-03-31", "bigale_orders_1")/ListOrdersResponse Then the second level of the tree and levels not ok. db:open("bigale_order_list_since_2017-03-31", "bigale_orders_1")/ListOrdersResult/ListOrdersResult *Should be: db:open("bigale_order_list_since_2017-03-31", "bigale_orders_1")/ListOrdersResponse/ ListOrdersResult And so on. db:open("bigale_order_list_since_2017-03-31", "bigale_orders_1")/Orders/Orders/Orders *Should be: db:open("bigale_order_list_since_2017-03-31", "bigale_orders_1")/ListOrdersResponse/ ListOrdersResult/Orders This may have started since the 9 release. Thanks, Alex Everitt

"Infinity" is incorrectly cast to xs:float.
by Reece Dunn 28 Jun '18

28 Jun '18

Hi, I have found the following behaviour in BaseX 9.0: "Infinity" cast as xs:float (: INF :) "-Infinity" cast as xs:float (: -INF :) "infinity" cast as xs:float (: [FORG0001] Cannot convert xs:string to xs:float: "infinity". :) "Infinity" cast as xs:double (: [FORG0001] Cannot convert xs:string to xs:double: "Infinity". :) "-Infinity" cast as xs:double (: [FORG0001] Cannot convert xs:string to xs:double: "-Infinity". :) >From my reading of Functions and Operators 3.1, and XML Schema 1.1 Part 2 Datatypes, "Infinity" and "-Infinity" are both invalid values for xs:float (like with xs:double) -- they should only be "INF" and "-INF". Kind regards, Reece H. Dunn

Fwd: Tracing query execution
by Iwan Briquemont 28 Jun '18

I forgot to reply to the mailing list too. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Iwan Briquemont <tracnar(a)gmail.com> Date: 2018-06-28 10:51 GMT+02:00 Subject: Re: [basex-talk] Tracing query execution To: Fabrice ETANCHAUD <fetanchaud(a)pch.cerfrance.fr> Hi Fabrice, Indeed that's another solution. I also thought about restricting the expression to a subset of what XQuery supports to implement what you describe. But then the information would be restricted to the expressions which follow that subset. Note that I do not need to know how it is decided per-se for my application, it is as a debugging feature. Behind the boolean expressions there are also some more complicated queries (like joining data from multiple sources), which is why I like to be able to use XQuery all the way. I think this kind of debugging would be useful for actual queries too.

How to export a database containing xi:include to multiple files
by Marco Randazzo 27 Jun '18

27 Jun '18

Hi, I'm posting again the same question I did some time ago, unfortunately unanswered :( I used baseX GUI (9.0.1) to create a database similar to the following test file: <main xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"> <xi:include href="folder1/file1.xml" /> <xi:include href="folder2/file1.xml" /> </main> The Result displayed in the baseX gui is correct: <main xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"> <data xml:base="folder1/file1.xml">5555</data> <data xml:base="folder2/file1.xml">6666</data> </main> Now, after editing the values, I would like to export the contents of the database to MULTIPLE xml files, recreating the same files and the original folders (I see this information is not lost, it is stored in the value of xml:base) However, using the export function available in the baseX GUI, I am able to obtain only a SINGLE file containing the Result shown above, where the two files have been merged in a single file. What can I do? Thank you, Cheers, Marco Randazzo

Re: [basex-talk] doc path in basex
by Martin Lourduswamy 26 Jun '18

26 Jun '18

Hi, I used db:node-pre(db:text("db", "ae4b577bd9f578556cd")//../..) delete node db:open-pre("db",333) to immensely speed the basex access. Thanks for helping me with how to get a db:node form basex. I have one more question. I am using FreeBSD to host BaseX and it is stable so for in the testing. Are there any known problems of openjdk8 on FreeBSD and baseX. I could not find any issues so far with basex. But I read somewhere that openjdk8 on FreeBSD dumps core some time. I think it is for specific applications only not for baseX. Just a architectural suggestion on picking the best OS to host baseX. Please let me know when you have some time, ( BaseX works excellent on Windows, CentOS and FreeBSD and produced same results in all of them. But on windows the disk was close to 100% in windows while running my application, centos and FreeBSD has no problems. ) Thanks, Regards Martin Lourduswamy On Thu, Jun 14, 2018 at 2:36 PM, Christian Grün <christian.gruen(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Martin, > > The behavior of BaseX is similar on Windows and Linux. > > I would guess you started the application from different directories? > With file:current-dir(), you get your current working directory [1]. > file:base-dir() points you to the directory in which your XQuery file > is stored. > > Best, > Christian > > [1] http://docs.basex.org/wiki/File_Module#file:current-dir > > > On Thu, Jun 14, 2018 at 2:35 PM Martin Lourduswamy > <martin.louis(a)gmail.com> wrote: > > > > Hi, > > I have a query that creates DB > > > > db:create("database", "db.xml") > > > > I have put the db.xml in the bin dir. > > > > This works for unix/Linux, but on windows I need to specifically give > bin dir lke > > > > db:create("database", "bin/db.xml") > > Otherwise it does not work. > > > > I do not want to hard code path in the script.
