Dear Rob,
thanks a bunch for your suggestion, imho the main issue BaseX lacks this, is that the W3 does not provide any recommendations on how to represent a map textually, i.e. serialize it.
Anyhow, our team member Leo came up with a module that handles serialization of arbitrary XQuery sequences: https://github.com/LeoWoerteler/fots-basex/blob/master/serialize.xqm
You most probably want to put this in your repo folder [1], so you can easily import it by only referencing its namespace.
Hope this helps! Michael

Hi Christian,
I’m working with Basex 7.7beta now without any problems. The trace-function also works much better except …….. it doesn’t work with mappings. I make intensive use of recursion and mappings and for debugging it would be nice if the trace-function would also work with mappings.
I wouldn’t ask you to implement this if it wasn’t so easy to program in Xquery, see attachment. I use this programmed version but I think it would be nice if the trace-function could also process mappings.
Just something to consider ?
