[XQZone General] Problem in Setting Xquery Variable Values

[Ron Hitchens]

Sandesh,

    Yeah, it's hard to tell for sure what the problem is
without seeing the exact code.

    You can get tripped up by namespaces as Jason suggests.
You also need to make sure you declare external variables
in your XQuery script, like this:

      define variable $foo as xs:string external

    If the XQuery code that you're fetching at runtime
does not have declarations for the variables you're setting
on the XDBCStatement object, then the server will not be
able to setup the bindings when the XQuery request is
evaluated.
