Hi Santhosh,
The "deadbeef" works because it is a string that can be casted to xs:hexBinary,
in other words it is a string containing only digits or characters a-f.
Converting plain text to binary requires converting each character to its
hexadecimal representation. You can do that as follows:
binary { string-join(xdmp:integer-to-hex(string-to-codepoints("Testing binary
Constructor")), "") }
But if you are really storing plain text, you could store that as a text node
just as well.. ;-)
Kind regards,
Geert
