Hi there,

Just downloaded and installed the new release. Compiling and installing 
on my system went off without a hitch, my compliments.

I've been trying to use pathfinder's xquery's support and I ran into 
some snags. It may be something I do wrong, but I'll ask anyway.

First, I was testing the xquery support. I tried to shred a document 
like this:

shred_doc('/home/faassen/xml/shaks/hamlet.xml', 'hamlet')

and then to refer to this document from an xquery like this:

doc('hamlet')//FM

I get the following error:

MAPI  = [EMAIL PROTECTED]:50000
QUERY = doc('hamlet')//FM
ERROR = !ERROR: [shred_url]: 1 times inserted nil due to errors at 
tuples [EMAIL PROTECTED]
         !ERROR: [shred_url]: first error was:
         !ERROR: shred: cannot stat `hamlet': No such file or directory
         !ERROR: CMDshred_url: operation failed.
         !ERROR: interpret_params: leftfetchjoin(param 2): evaluation error.

Hinted by the 'cannot stat', I tried the following:

doc('/home/faassen/xml/shaks/hamlet.xml')//FM

and this gets a step further (still wondering why the former didn't 
work, though):

MAPI  = [EMAIL PROTECTED]:50000
QUERY = doc('/home/faassen/xml/shaks/hamlet.xml')//FM
ERROR = !ERROR: I/O warning : failed to load external entity "play.dtd"
         !ERROR: [shred_url]: 1 times inserted nil due to errors at 
tuples [EMAIL PROTECTED]
         !ERROR: [shred_url]: first error was:
         !ERROR: shred_external_subset: WARNING: xmlParseDTD("play.dtd") 
FAILED, NO ID/IDREF QUERIES
         !ERROR: shred_external_subset: NOTE   : maybe using absolute 
filenames works, sorry!
         !ERROR: CMDshred_url: operation failed.
         !ERROR: interpret_params: leftfetchjoin(param 2): evaluation error.

The play.dtd is in the directory next to 'hamlet.xml', so don't know why 
that doesn't work either.

So, I made a new hamlet2.xml removing the dtd reference. I don't need 
dtd support anyway, but it'd be nice if it could parse documents with 
dtds, of course. Now, it works.

Next, I was trying out the xquery update support. Not hindered by any 
knowledge on how it works, I went to the referenced W3C document and 
adapted the first insert statement I saw there into this:

do insert <year>2005</year>
   after fn:doc('/home/faassen/xml/shaks/hamlet2.xml')/PLAY/TITLE

This however gives me an error message I do not understand:

MAPI  = [EMAIL PROTECTED]:50000
QUERY = do insert <year>2005</year>
           after fn:doc('/home/faassen/xml/shaks/hamlet2.xml')/PLAY/TITLE
ERROR = !type error: no variant of function upd:insertAfter accepts the 
given argument type(s): element TITLE { item* }*; (node* | node)*
         !type error: maybe you meant:
         !type error:   upd:insertAfter (node, node*) as stmt
         !type error: illegal arguments for function upd:insertAfter

What am I doing wrong there?

Regards,

Martijn
