Just noticed a server error when running a script that had been working
fine. It turns out that until this release, the following code worked
fine, returning the ML version number:
xquery version "1.0-ml";
declare function local:handle-ref() as item()* { };
xdmp:version()
With 4.2-2, it throws a syntax error. It must be rewritten as
xquery version "1.0-ml";
declare function local:handle-ref() as item()* { () };
xdmp:version()
with the explicit null item.
Obviously this is a tightening to bring behavior in line with the XQuery
language spec. We're probably not the only MarkLogic shop in the world
to have an unfinished function declaration like the above lying around
somewhere in their code, so I thought I would mention it as something to
watch out for.
