Hello there,

I found the problem! My code added a trailing space to the values of the variables when binding.

After tokenizing in the XQuery, this creates a zero length string which when cast to xs:integer then becomes an xs:double according to the error message.

Is this intended behaviour?

Hello there,

I created a simple example using the BaseX Java API, and that worked fine, also using my code to create the query and submit it to a ClientSession worked ok too :(

This was the query I ran:

declare variable $items external := "123 NIL";

declare variable $tokenizedItems:= tokenize($items," ");

for $item in $tokenizedItems

return

if($item = "NIL") then ("Nil") else (xs:integer($item))

Unable to reproduce the earlier result from today using my code as well :(

So I can understand the error better: "[FORG0001] Cannot cast to xs:double: ."

The full stop after xs:double , does that relate to a decimal point or the current item (xquery .)

Thanks. Some few lines of Java Code might already be sufficient
(provided that the problem can be reproduced with the XQuery snippet
that you sent in your last mail).
