Re: [Exist-open] request:request-parameter() in XQuery file

[Wolfgang M. <wol...@ex...>]

Sorry for the late response. I still had your message in the queue. Current=
ly,=20
passing request objects to a remote server is not possible. The request=20
object is set through XQueryContext.declareVariable(). However, this method=
=20
only works for XMLRPC supported types.

We have to either allow arbitrary serializable objects to be passed to the=
=20
XMLRPC query method, or define a special struct for the request, response a=
nd=20
session objects. I guess, supporting serializable would be the better choic=
e.
