Hi Burkhard,

The thing about the warn argument is that it can be updated by the Java
call. So I think you will need to pass in a suitable Java object.
For this case I tried an  ArrayList

import module namespace bdrc = "io.bdrc.ewtsconverter.EwtsConverter";
let $warn:=Q{java.util.ArrayList}new()
let $roman := "bk ra shise bde legs"
let $result:=bdrc:toUnicode($roman,$warn,true(),false())
return map{"result": $result,
           "warn": Q{java.util.ArrayList}toString($warn)
         }

Results in
map {
  "warn": "[line 1: ""bk"": Expected vowel after ""k"".]",
  "result": "བཀ་ར་ཤིསེ་བདེ་ལེགས"
}

I don't know if this is right or not. There are better ways to pick apart
$warn.

/Andy
