Re: [basex-talk] Java binding - variable arguments

[Christian Grün]

And a complementary remark: You can also use the built-in function
out:format (it will be optimized better than Java functions):

  let $string := 'Format string: %1$d - %2$s'
  let $i := 1
  let $j := 'text'
  return out:format($string, $i, $j)

For formatting numbers, XQuery provides the function fn:format-number:

  format-number(1, '0000')

Best,
Christian
