<p style="margin:0.8em 0px!important">I’d like to add another feature request to the current implementation of the language : the ability to retrieve the current function being executed. I could not find a work-around for implementing this, and - now with functions being first-class citizens of the language - felt the need for this capability in some edge cases.</p>
<p style="margin:0.8em 0px!important">Something like :</p>
<pre style="font-size:0.85em;font-family:Consolas,Inconsolata,Courier,monospace;font-size:1em;line-height:1.2em;margin:1.2em 0px"><code style="font-size:0.85em;font-family:Consolas,Inconsolata,Courier,monospace;margin:0px 0.15em;padding:0px 0.3em;white-space:pre-wrap;border:1px solid rgb(234,234,234);border-radius:3px;display:inline;background-color:rgb(248,248,248);white-space:pre;overflow:auto;border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding:0.5em 0.7em;display:block;padding:0.5em;color:rgb(51,51,51);background:rgb(248,248,255)">
declare function local:test($arg) {
let $function := function-item() (: would return local:test#1 as function item :)
return ()
};

<p style="margin:0.8em 0px!important">Hello,<br> I’ve been working with the recent xquery 3.1 implementation in the develop branch eXist-db. I encountered some cases that were quite hard to work around: </p>
<ul style="margin:1.2em 0px;padding-left:2em">
<li style="margin:0.5em 0px">the lack of array:index-of() - the lack of the iterator index in arrayfor-each and related higher-order functions<br>Perhaps someone of the workgroup is available to discuss those cases. <h2 id="thanks-wouter-" style="margin:1.3em 0px 0.3em;padding:0px;font-weight:bold;font-size:1.4em;border-bottom-width:1px;border-bottom-style:solid;border-bottom-color:rgb(204,204,204)">Thanks, Wouter </h2>
