Saxon

Hi

After updating to saxon 9.7, we have encountered an issue related to [text() cannot be converted to a java Object] When using a previous version saxon 9.4 there are no conversion issues.

This is a snippet of the XQuery with the conversion:

1. declare namespace java_lang_String = "java:java.lang.String"; let $castVar := ( java_lang_String:toUpperCase($out_pri_Response/key[1]/text()) . We get an error: Cannot convert value class net.sf.saxon.tree.tiny.TinyTextImpl of type text() to class java.lang.String.

2. The same goes when using java_lang_Integer:shortValue($out_pri_Response/key[1]/text()). We get an error : Cannot convert value.. of type text() to java.lang.Integer.

However, when using a static java function that has a primitive type parameter, the conversion works: let $castVar := (java_lang_Integer:toHexString($out_pri_Response/key[1]/text()) (text() is converted to int)

(The xquery is generic regardless of what java function is called so we would like to avoid a ( cast as *) declaration.)

Is there a setting need to be updated in our Configuration to enable a compatible conversion? Thanks.
