Hello Antoine,

this appears to be a bug in most recent BaseX version. The optimizer seems to think the where clause is equivilant to the position predicate and it is rewritten to

for $d_0 in document-node()()/descendant::fund/properties/domain[position() = 1] return data($d_0/@reference)

i.e. without a where clause but with the position() predicate. Also, if you return something like "return data($d/@reference) || $i" it works as expected.

Hence, I created a new issue for this at https://github.com/BaseXdb/basex/issues/1189.

Thanks for reporting this. Please be aware that our main developer Christian is currently on vacation (until next week), so it will take slightly longer to get this fixed (as I know Christian usually this would be fixed by the end of the day). I hope this doesn't influence your decision making process in your evaluation.

Cheers Dirk

Hi,

We are in the process of evaluating BaseX and recently upgraded from version 7.9 to 8.2.3

We have a DB “TESTDB” with 50 xml files, named Fund1.xml, Fund2.xml, Fund3.xml,…. each having the same structure:

Fund1.xml

< fund> …

<properties> … <domain reference=”fund1”> … </domain> … </properties> … </fund>

Fund2.xml

< fund> …

<properties> … <domain reference=”fund2”> … </domain> … </properties> … </fund>

…. ….

The following query does not behave the same on both versions :

For $d at $i in db:open(“TESTDB”)/fund/properties/domain where $i < 2 return data($d/@reference)

Result in 7.9

“Fund1”

Result in 8.2.3

“Fund1 Fund2 Fund3 Fund4 …”

Is this a bug or is there something wrong with the query ?

Best Regards,

Antoine Wolf
