Right; while this is generally possible, it's nothing I would recommended (similar to the use of util:eval()). > Are you considering adding this possibility directly in Xquery - for example > in the db module, with a db:execute function ? It could probably be implemented in less than an hour, but it would cause lots of problems that would cost us much more time.. Instead we'll be gradually complementing the existing db module with the still missing commands. Which ones – except for db:create() – are you missing most? > Are client:execute and client:query updating functions ? Nope, as they are tailored to run on a different server. The specified query may be updating, though.
