How do you execute XML commands from the BaseX GUI? Why can't multiple XML commands be executed from the BaseXClient.java? How can database options (e.g. autooptimize) be changed from the GUI without opening the database and locking it?
How do you execute XML commands from the BaseX GUI?
What do you mean by "XML commands"? If you talk about BaseX commands, you can use the input bar [1], or write command scripts [2] in the editor. If you store your scripts with the .bxs suffix, it will be executed as command script.
Why can't multiple XML commands be executed from the BaseXClient.java?
You can. Just use several execute() calls.
How can database options (e.g. autooptimize) be changed from the GUI without opening the database and locking it?
The "autooptimize" flag of a particular database can only be changed by optimizing the database and setting the new flag. If you want to avoid opening the database, you can use XQuery for that.
