[basex-talk] Problem with basex:eval

27 Sep 2010

      Hi there,

I am using basex 6.2.7 (gui version) from the maven repo.

Using eval (see below) gives me: Fehler: [XPST0017] Unknown function
"local:name1(...)".

If I call local:name1() directly, it works. Running the same script
with Saxon (using saxon:evaluate) works, too.

declare function local:name1() {
     let $msg := "hello from name1"
	 return <msg>{$msg}</msg>
};

declare function local:dispatch($e as element()) {
	let $func := local-name($e)
  let $res :=  basex:eval(concat("local:", $func, "()"))
	 return $res
};

let $elem := <name1>bla</name1>
(: return local:name1() :)
return local:dispatch($elem)

Regards,

Max
