The short answer is "no".
You cant pass sequences, elements, documents or anything but atomic
single value to XCC as external variables.
I consider this a major "bug" but it is what it is.
The long answer.
1) Wrap the sequence into a document, store the document in a temporary
directory on the ML server,
then do an ad-hoc query to parse the document, generate the sequence and
call your module.
Pseudo-code
Client:
create doc <doc><elem>a</elem><elem>b</elem> ....
store doc in /temp/values.xml --- MAKE
SURE THIS IS UNIQUELY NAMED (not always easy)
call Ad-hoc query
let $seq := doc("/temp/values.xml")
return myprefix:myfun( for $e in
$seq//elem return $e/string() )
2) Dynamically create an ad-hoc query in xquery with the sequence as
part of the code
Client C# (ish)
String query = "declare variable $args :-= (" ;
for( value in values ...)
query = query + "\"" + value + "\"," ;
query = query + "())"; // hack to avoid figuring out
what the last item was ... I'm lazy
query = query + "myprefix:myfunc( $args) ";
Call Ad-hoc query $query
Feature Request to MarkLogic
PLEASE add support for sequences and nodes to XCC variables !!!!

Subject: [MarkLogic Dev General] How to pass String Array to Marklogic
usingXCC.Net API?
Hi,
How to pass String Array to Marklogic using XCC.Net API.
Marklogic is expecting data in the form of string Array in a query, I
want to pass the data in
A string array as {"a","b","c","d"} .
I am not able to find the way to pass it to ML using C#.
Is there any way to do it?
Thanks,
