Hi,

I ran over an unexpected bahavior of BaseX 9.7.3 Can anyone explain?

Note: BaseX 9.7.3 is running with MIXUPDATES=true

file1.xq: create to functions in a list and call each function with a list comprehension ---- declare function local:bla(){<bla id=""/> }; declare function local:blubb(){<blubb id=""/> }; (local:bla#0,local:blubb#0)!.() ----

Result: as expected <bla id=""/> <blubb id=""/>

file2.xq: same as above, but in an xquery:eval --- xquery:eval( ' declare function local:bla(){<bla id=""/>}; declare function local:blubb(){<blubb id=""/> }; local:bla#0,local:blubb#0 ' )!.()

---

Result: as expected <bla id=""/> <blubb id=""/>

file3.xq: same as file1, but with a little "twist" --- declare function local:bla(){<bla/> update {insert node attribute id {} into .}}; declare function local:blubb(){<blubb/> update {insert node attribute id {} into .}}; (local:bla#0,local:blubb#0)!.() ---

Result: as expected <bla id=""/> <blubb id=""/>

file4.xq trying to call the same with xquery:eval will not work ([xquery:update] No updating expression allowed.), so we use xquery:eval-update() ---

xquery:eval-update( ' declare function local:bla(){<bla/> update insert node attribute id {} into .}; declare function local:blubb(){<blubb/> update insert node attribute id {} into .}; local:bla#0,local:blubb#0 ' )!.()

--

Result: expected <bla id=""/> <blubb id=""/>

But the result is: local:bla#0 local:blubb#0

file5.xq: --- xquery:eval-update( ' declare function local:bla(){<bla/> update insert node attribute id {} into .}; declare function local:blubb(){<blubb/> update insert node attribute id {} into .}; local:bla#0 ' )() --- Result: as expected <bla id=""/>

Is this a bug? A for-loop will not work either.

Best regards, Sebastian
