Christian, thanks very much.
I returned to my actual code, and it works with the latest snapshot dated today.
By the way, I also retried the variations I had created when trying to explore
workarounds, and one of them still doesn't work with the latest snapshot. It's
not blocking me, but in case it is helpful, I reduced it to another small query
that reproduces the error with today's snapshot. I know you said you fixed part
of the problem, so you might not be surprised that the following code still
triggers the error.
xquery version "3.1";
declare variable $variant :=
if (exists(function-lookup(QName('nonexistent','nonexistent'), 0)))
then
( (: not relevant :) )
else
function-lookup(QName('http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-functions','string'), 1);
declare variable $variant-fcns := $variant;
declare function local:fcn() {
$variant-fcns('abc')
};
local:fcn()
The levels of indirection (variable, variable, function, function call) seem to
be relevant for the problem. If I make the code more direct, it works.
Regards,
Amanda
