The expression result is serialized using the default serialization parameters method="xml" indent="no" omit-xml-declaration="yes”. But there are a number of tests in OptionDecl.serialization.xml that seem to expect different serialization parameters. For example, Serialization-032: <test-case name="Serialization-032"> ... <test><![CDATA[ declare namespace output = "http://www.w3.org/2010/xslt-xquery-serialization"; declare option output:method "xml"; declare option output:standalone "no"; declare option output:omit-xml-declaration "yes"; <a/> ]]></test> <result> <assert-serialization-error code="SEPM0009" /> </result> </test-case> This test seems to expect that the serialization parameters from the prolog of the query will be used. (SEPM009 results if the omit-xml-declaration parameter has the value yes, and the standalone parameter has a value other than omit) It appears that either the definition of assert-serialization-error is wrong or the tests are wrong. 114508 1 mike 2014-11-04 21:18:58 +0000 I think the description in the catalog is wrong. The serialization should use the serialization parameters in the query prolog if present. That seems to be the only thing that makes sense; we want to test serialization errors that can't occur if the default serialization options are used. 115135 2 josh.spiegel 2014-11-19 17:19:13 +0000 Fixed as suggested in Comment 1.
