Hi Sebastian,


I'm on a Mac here, so I'm not sure if my experiences apply
to your case as well, but I'll try my best (maybe one of my
team mates can varify?).

If I run the query below for a document, I get a
FileNotFound Exception, just like you:
fn:put(root(), fn:base-uri(root()))

The path returned by fn-base-uri is:
file:/xml/test.xml
This doesn't exactly look right to me if I refer to [2]. We'll
have a look at this and come back to you as soon as we
know more.

As for now, to make your example work, you could either
switch on the 'writeback' command of BaseX [1], or
process the return value of fn:base-uri to make it a
working path expression.

Thanks for reporting, feel free to ask for more -


Regards,
Lukas

Hello,

In an fn:put(TempNode,URI) I would expect  base-uri(Node) as a URI parameter to work.

But base-uri(Node) returns on Windows “file:/C:/somepath/somefile.xml”,

which does not work, because the URI cannot be opened. The URI “/somepath/somefile.xml” works.

And file://C/somepath/somefile.xml does also work.

Is this a bug?

example:

let $doc:= doc(“bla.xml”)

put(

copy $temp := $doc

        modify replace

                  value of node $temp/n

                  with lower-case($temp/n)

           return $temp,base-uri($doc)

  )

(: this does not work, but should it not? :)

best regards,

Sebastian
