Dear Jean-Philippe,

as you correctly guessed, there is no function in BaseX for
dynamically importing XQuery modules. The function xquery:invoke [1]
may serve a similar purpose. I’m not sure how the invocation of Java
code could help here, so could you give us some more information on
what you plan to do, and what needs to be done at runtime in your
scenario?

Thanks,
Christian

PS: our team member Leo is currently having a look at the circular
module import issue.
