Creating connection pool in basex
by iClays 07 Mar '14

07 Mar '14

Is there a way to create a connection pool in basex as you would with applications that connects to oracle or sql server? How do we achieve this?

Bug in tar reading support
by Hondros, Constantine (ELS-AMS) 07 Mar '14

07 Mar '14

Hi Basex team, I have discovered an apparent bug in the tar-reading support new in Basex 7.8.1. Roughly 50% of the files in my tars are not being imported. When the tar is unpacked and imported from the file-system, 100% of files are imported. @Christian: I will mail you privately the location of a sample tar for you to test. On CREATE DB from unpacked tarfile, count(/*) = 1030 On CREATE DB from tarfile, count(/*) = 554 Selected options were: set INTPARSE true set STRIPNS true set SKIPCORRUPT true Cheers, Constantine ________________________________ Elsevier B.V.

import in xsd
by Jan Techter 03 Mar '14

03 Mar '14

Hi, is the validation:xsd() function able to handle the import of other schemata? I tried to do something like <import namespace="http://bibtexml.sf.net/" schemaLocation="bibtexml-handwritten.xsd"/> to use types which are defined in this schema in my own schema. Both schema files are lying next to each other in the same basex database. The validation function doesnt throw an error that the import failed. But rather only states that it can't resolve the types i used from the other schema: Validation failed. "Fatal:src-resolve: Cannot resolve the name 'bibtex:entry' to a(n) 'type definition' component." So it seems like it just ignores the import statement. Best, Jan

IRC Channel #basex on freenode
by Leo Wörteler 02 Mar '14

02 Mar '14

Hi all, as the BaseX community seems to grow steadily, I thought it would be nice to have a place to ask questions (even those too small for the mailing list) and to interact with you. I have therefore registered the IRC channel #basex on freenode [1]. I will be there most of the time, together with other team members as far as their schedule allows it. It would be great to see you there! Cheers, Leo [1] http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=%23basex

Is this a bug?
by Rob Stapper 02 Mar '14

02 Mar '14

Hi, The enclosed example triggers stackoverflow-errror. I was wandering if it is a bug. The example should collect all ID-attribute-values of the containerElements, which are iterative-recursive. The $go($go, .) construction is inspired from Leo Wörtelers xq-modules: https://github.com/LeoWoerteler/xq-modules.

Return file source of a given node?
by Hondros, Constantine (ELS-AMS) 28 Feb '14

28 Feb '14

Hello all, So, I am using Basex to inspect a gargantuan archive of XML records split over thousands of .tar files (thanks Christian for the recent fix allowing me to create a DB from tar input!). In some cases, I would like to know which file, in which tar archive, was the source for a given query result. Imagine that my DB consists of thousands of documents with root element <article>. Is there any way to return the file path of the document that was the source for result of this sort of simple query? /article[@id = '123'] Thanks, Constantine ________________________________ Elsevier B.V.

typo in the BaseXwiki
by Rob Stapper 28 Feb '14

28 Feb '14

Hi, The wiki-documentation of the 'map:new'-command in the map-module ( http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Map_Module#map:new) contains a typo in the third example: map:new -> Examples -> map:new(map:entry(0, "no"), map:entry(1, "yes")) should probably be: map:new((map:entry(0, "no"), map:entry(1, "yes")) Nothing much, but still.

file:delete() and hidden files on Mac OS
by France Baril 27 Feb '14

27 Feb '14

Hi, I need to be able to export content to a clean directory. When I export content to a directory that used to exist, I need to wipe and clean to replace everything with new content. However, I am getting io-errors: Stopped at /Applications/basex/webapp/How2_StaticHTML.xqm, 738/30: [io-error] Path '/.DocumentRevisions-V100' cannot be deleted. Is there anyway from the basex side to allow deletion of hidden files or do I have to disable revisions on my computer, so these files never get created in the first place? The second option seems rather drastic. -- France Baril Architecte documentaire / Documentation architect france.baril(a)architextus.com (514) 572-0341

Multiple update operations on same target element
by Jérôme Chauveau 27 Feb '14

27 Feb '14

Hi, Under BaseX 772. I have to run 2 update operations in one query (both concern the same target element) - first operation example: *replace node //tei:div[@xml:id="myID"]with <div ns:time='xxx' xml:id="myID">new content</div>* - second operation example:* **replace value of node //tei:div[@xml:id="myID"]/@*:time with "yyy"** * Both work when run separatly, but don't when are in the same query: the second operation is not executed (and no error message is returned) * **replace node //tei:div[@xml:id="myID"]with <div ns:time='xxx' xml:id="myID">new content</div>,** **replace value of node //tei:div[@xml:id="myID"]/@*:time with "yyy"* Any idea? Is it a bug? Regards, Jérôme C.

different syntax for specifying the axis while applying a function
by Jan Techter 27 Feb '14

27 Feb '14

Dear basex people, I am new to this mailing list. So 'hello' first of all. In my understanding of xquery the following expressions should be equivalent /self::match/string() /string(self::match) But running xquery count((<match>foo</match>, <test>test</test>, <match>bar</match>)/self::match/string()) xquery count((<match>foo</match>, <test>test</test>, <match>bar</match>)/string(self::match)) in basex version 7.7.2 turns out to have different results (2 in the first case, 3 in the second). I think it should be 2 in both cases. This bug was found using functx:get-matches() which doesn't return the expected results in basex. Best regards. Jan

bug/ strange behaviour in package-installation in BasexGUI
by Rob Stapper 24 Feb '14

24 Feb '14

Hi, I encountered some strange behavior/bug when installing a package (Xquery module) from within the BaseXGUI InstructionPath: - BaseXGUI -> BaseXGui.Toolbar: Options -> Packages -> BaseXGui.PackageWindow:install When installing package (XqueryModule): test.xqm then the already installed package: testSet.xqm will be deleted from the installedPackageSet. Package: testSet.xqm has to be reïnstalled. I dont think this is wanted behavior. My guess is that it has something to do with versionstripping from the file name. Can you have a look at it?

Using Client/Server? How-to
by Pratik Kharwade 21 Feb '14

21 Feb '14

Hi, I am using BaseX to store certains documents. Till now as the DB was small, I alone was able to handle it ie.; check, modify etc etc. operations. Now the documents are in tons and I have kept 2 guys to work on the same, with proper training, I need to have a client-server setup. I have gone through the Database Server wiki. Being new to this kind of environment, I have few questions, might be quite basic, but strange to me :) As far as I know and have understood what I will have to do is - 1. I will have to keep the DB on a server with proper networking so that the clients can access the DB. 2. I will have to change the DB path on clients (in Preferences) and it would be the Server's path. 3. Instead of running the stand-alone, I will have to start Server and on clients, the BaseX Client. So far, I haven't tried this, as any mistake on my part or of employees' might damage the DB. I need a proper guidance to start with it. Regs Pratik

function parse-xml() very slow in embedded mode
by Johan Mörén 19 Feb '14

19 Feb '14

Hi I'm using BaseX in embedded mode (no database) and need to transform an xml payload that contains elements containing string-encoded xml in this form ... <str><objectInstance fetchDate="2014-02-14T13:00:53.374+01:00"> <createdDateTime>2012-12-04T08:55:26.195Z</createdDateTime> </objectInstance></str> ... I have both tried using xquery update (copy, modify) and with a simple identity-transform function that intercepts the <str/> element and replaces it with the results of parse-xml(.) When executing the query in BasexGUI both solutions performs very well. However if i invoke it via the QueryProcessor in my java-process it is 50 to 100 times slower. Any clues to what i might be missing? Regards, Johan Mörén

Updating Functions and Custom Types
by Stefan Sechelmann 19 Feb '14

19 Feb '14

Hello BaseX Team, we are currently using BaseX with great success in a WebApp/Database environment. Firstly I want to thank you for the great work on version 7.8, we like the new new features very much. Here are two feature requests that we would love to see being included in the future: - We have a test suite that invokes various updating functions using the standalone client. On the other hand non-updating functions are tested by a query test suite using the unit module. It would be great to include the tests for updating functions into the xquery test suite thus removing the condition that a test function must not be updating. - Inside our restxq backend we have a lot of functions that pass complex data structures to other functions or receive them via http. In order for these functions to be correctly typed we would need custom type support via XML-schema includes. This would greatly improve the quality of our code. Greetings and best regards Stefan -- Stefan Sechelmann DFG-Forschungszentrum Matheon Mathematik für Schlüsseltechnologien Technische Universität Berlin Sekretariat MA 8-3 Tel. 030/314 29 486 Straße des 17.
