[xquery-talk] "While" in xquery

[David Lee]

Use "for"

assuming $node is  <node value="100"/>

 

 

for $num in 1 to xs:integer( $node/@value ) 

return

                <element>{ $num} </element>

Subject: [xquery-talk] "While" in xquery

 

 

Hi *,

 

I have an xquery development where I need to repeat an element as many times
as a value of an specific node

I am trying to use a "while" expression in my xquery development but I am
not sure if it is possible or if it is an extension that depends of my
xquery engine.

 

Could you please help me to understand if it is possible to use it? Any
idea?

 

Thank you

 

Regards

 

 

Julio
