  Re: Optimizations
Hi again,

In the same spirit, this is not at all optimized.
Maybe I need Saxon SA ?


declare variable $level as xs:integer := 3 ;

declare function local:debug($l as xs:integer,$what){
  if($l >=4) then
    <debug>{$what}</debug>
  else ()
};

let $dosmthg := <oki>test trace</oki>

return
(local:debug($level,$dosmthg),$dosmthg)
