Dear BaseX Team,
The below code is working fine and I am getting the required output -
for $x in doc('input.xml')//li return $x/text()
i.e;
------------------------Output with XML File---------------- Example 1 Example 2 Example 3 ------------------------------------------------------------
But when I try the same with BaseX DB , I am not getting the required output ;-(
for $x in doc('input')//li return $x/text()
------------------------Output with DB---------------------- Example 1Example 2Example 3 ------------------------------------------------------------
Now the first output can easily be populated in the Combo box, but what about the second..? The length of the output is not fixed in real application...
I have attached the input.xml file.
Regards, Anand Chiney

Dear Anand,
Thanks for the reply. The serialize() did work. But what I was expecting Is pure textual output and I am getting XML output. The output which I am getting is -
I strongly recommend you to spend some more time to get into XPath and XQuery, as those issues can all be realized fairly easily with the languages themselves. Some straightforward tutorials are e.g. found at [1,2].
Here are some examples (among many others) how you could rewrite your query to get the desired results:
for $x in doc('input.xml')//li return $x/text() doc('input.xml')//li/text() doc('input.xml')//li/string() doc('input.xml')//li/data()
You can also compose the whole combobox within XQuery. Your query could then look like
<select>{ for $x in doc('input.xml')//li return <option>{ $x/text() }</option> }</select>
or
element select { doc('input.xml')//li ! element option { text() } }
Hope this helps, Christian

But I am expecting this is -
Exercise 1 Exercise 2
Actually I want to populate a JComboBox which is a part of my front-end. So I thought that this piece of code, where it is said "Java representation", would gimme the output as I required.
Can you help me a little more..? Which method will gimme the plain output, without the XML Tags...? So that I can populate a JComboBox... !!

Here's a second feedback (sorry for being distracted): Your query does return standard Java DOM elements, the toString() method of which returns "[li: null]". As you are probably interested in the string representation of the elements, you'll need to replace "toJava()" with "serialize()":
System.out.println(item.serialize());
Hope this helps, Christian ___________________________

Your query will yield the expected results if you remove the explicit cq.execute(); call.
In the latest snapshot [1], an exception will be returned if the result has already been requested.

Please find attached 2 files, MyRunQueries.java and input.xml

One again I'm sorry Please send us a (small !) example that we can try by ourselves.
Thank you in advance, Christian ___________________________

Hello Christian,
We are extracting names from a very long list of names. The
item.toJava()
method call in iterate(query) is returning null. example output:
[li: null]
Rest of the methods are printing output fine.
