Is there any way to preserve sort order in xquery? My problem is that the data
has to get passed to the MVC framework's get-response() function on the return,
so I think it's automatically reverting to document order. I thought that doing
the sort right in the first paramter of the subsequence() function would
capture the first 'n' items after they are sorted, but it does not. I also
tried having the $search-results parameter sorted before the call to
subsequence(), but that did not work either. See the following code:
let $data :=
<figures count="{$count}"
mediatypes="{$mtypes}"
start="{$start}"
end="{$start+$myns:image-paging-default}"
page="{$page}"
increment="{$myns:image-paging-default}"
total-pages="{
if ($count lt $myns:image-paging-default) then
1
else
ceiling(($count + 1) div $myns:image-paging-default)
}"
{
subsequence(
( for $item in ($search-results)
order by $item//figure/@ftype descending
return $item),
$start,
$myns:image-paging-default)
}
</figures>
let $sidebar := xdmp:get-server-field('imagefacets')
return utils:get-response($req, ($data,$sidebar) )
