[Exist-open] system:as-user() bug? ... maybe

[Patrick B. <pat...@jo...>]

Hi,

While using system:as-user() I've noticed that xmldb:get-current-user() will
return the emulated user in the let statements and will return the currently
logged in user in the return statement.

Example:

system:as-user($admin-username, $admin-password,
        let $username :=  xmldb:get-current-user()
        return
            <stuff>
               <let-username>$username</let-username>
               <return-username>xmldb:get-current-user()</return-username>
            </stuff>
    )

will give us:

<stuff>
       <let-username>admin</let-username>
       <return-username>Patrick</return-username>
  </stuff>

I'm not sure if this is intentional, but it seemed a bit counter intuitive
to me, so I thought I'd make a note of it.


Cheers,
