We are not responsible for weird Java design decisions ;-)

Hi Dirk,
Great. What a weird asymmetry though. At least there's a way to call it. Thanks.

Hello Marc,
URLEncoder has no public constructor, URLDecoder has. Using import to bind to Java, BaseX tries to create a new instance, which is not possible without a constructor. Use declare, i.e.
declare namespace encoder = "java:java.net.URLEncoder";to access static methods.
Cheers, Dirk

Hi,
What could be the reason that importing java.net.URLDecoder works as expected but doing the same with java.net.URLEncoder doesn't.
The following works:
import module namespace decoder = "java.net.URLDecoder"; decoder:decode('foo/bar%20baz')
=> 'foo/bar baz'
This gives a "Could not instantiate module 'java.net.URLEncoder'
import module namespace encoder = "java.net.URLEncoder"; encoder:encode('foo/bar baz')
