Bug #6256
closedfunction-name returns an empty sequence for node-name#0, string#0 and more?
0%
Description
Hi,
I was faced with a strange behavior of Saxon 12: The XPath expression function-name(node-name#0)
returns an empty sequence. In oposite function-name(node-name#1)
returns fn:node-name
. Same for string#0
, though position#0
returns fn:position
as expected.
I demonstrate it in this GitHub project:
Here you see the result:
Also interesting in Saxon 11 it returned anon
instead of an empty sequence. See: https://github.com/nkutsche/saxon-issue-function-name-zero-arg/actions/runs/6934049245/job/18861459121#step:5:411
Is this a desired behavior?
Best Regards, Nico

Thanks, I've added a test case to QT3 test set fn-function-name which confirms this as a bug.
The bug arises because references to context-dependent functions like fn:node-name#0 are actually compiled to an anonymous inline function with a closure, in effect let $var := . return function(){node-name($var)}
, and the anonymous function of course has no function name.
