Ah, hi Gustavo,
I actually don't know this, but it seems that the implementation of XQuery
in eXist places your results in an unsorted list! Or possibly it is placed
in a hashmap with its own bindings representing, for instance, data types
and so on?
Thinking about this, I believe it is possible to sort your returned results
using XQuery, and I think that must be your best alternative since your
function returns strings, which is what you want to display immiediately.
There is the option of further wrapping the results. I guess you have the
problem of how to sort though, i.e. on what basis. Once again I don't know,
but you may have to circumvent the whole problem with a sort of wrapper,
placing your results in a hashmap and calling a further XQuery function on
that hashmap for each result you want. If so not very pretty and leads me to
think there must be a "proper" way of doing this!
Does this make sense?
