Maps and arrays Functions
[SINCE Orbeon Forms 2017.2]
Orbeon Forms does not support the native XPath 3.1 syntax to create maps. But you can create a new map as follows using the
map:merge()
and map:entry()
functions:map:merge(
(
map:entry('number', 42),
map:entry('string', 'forty-two'),
map:entry('node', instance()),
map:entry('sequence', 1 to 10)
)
)
map:entry(
$key as xs:anyAtomicType,
$value as item()*
) as map(*)
map:merge($maps as map(*)*) as map(*)
map:get(
$map as map(*),
$key as xs:anyAtomicType
) as item()*
Orbeon Forms does not support the native XPath 3.1 syntax to create arrays. But you can create a new array as follows using the

array:append(
array:append(
array:append(
array:join(()),
42
),
'forty-two'
),
instance()
),
1 to 10
)
array:size($array as array(*)) as xs:integer
array:get($array as array(*), $position as xs:integer) as item()*
array:put(
$array as array(*),
$position as xs:integer,
$member as item()*
) as array(*)
array:append(
$array as array(*),
$appendage as item()*
) as array(*)
array:join($arrays as array(*)*) as array(*)
