There are various ways to specify the serialization parameters. If you
assign options in the query prolog, there is no need to call
serialize:
declare namespace output = 'http://www.w3.org/2010/xslt-xquery-serialization';
declare option output:omit-xml-declaration 'no';
declare option output:doctype-system '../../../configs/TestConfig_2_1.dtd';
db:open('db', 'path/to/file.xml')
If you invoke serialize, a valid item must be supplied as first
argument for serialize. This can e.g look as follows:
serialize(db:open('db', 'path/to/file.xml'), map { ... })
