Sounds good. Of course I meant the etc/ folder not lib/. /Andy

If you look in lib/ folder the file modules.zip contains the BaseX modules as .xqm stub files with functions marked as external. The entry for archive:delete is shown below. At one point I am sure these *.xqm could be parsed by functions like inspect:module and inspect:xqdoc Currently they raise errors like [XQST0045] Function '...' is in reserved namespace.
I believe were generated by scraping the wiki :)
However:
- some of these are a little out of date (at least in 9.02)
- modules.zip is not present in recent 9.1 betas
This is a shame as I hoped to use to one day use these in some kind of IDE for content assist. (although I have hoped that for a long time without actually doing it.)
This is exactly the use case I have. I'm attempting to help work on an
IntelliJ plugin that will leverage the signatures (for things I don't quite understand :).

(:~ : Deletes entries from an <code>$archive</code> . : The format of <code>$entries</code> is the same as for <a href="#archive:create">archive:create</a> . : : @error bxerr:ARCH0005 the entries of the given archive cannot be modified. : @error bxerr:ARCH9999 archive creation failed for some other reason. :) declare function archive:delete($archive as xs:base64Binary, $entries as item()*) as xs:base64Binary external;
Thanks again for the suggestion.
Best, Bridger

Hi all -
I was curious if there was a way to extract function signatures from BaseX. I'm currently reading through the (excellent) wiki but was curious if there was a more automated process I might be able to use. I've been trying to think of something clever with function-lookup, but I can't seem to make it dynamic based on module namespace; e.g.
for $fun in function-lookup(xs:QName("archive:delete"), 1) return $funI may just grab the wiki and parse it :), but I'm also interested in changes between versions of the processor.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Best, Bridger
