Determining file location in module import

In the Endeca XQuery implementation, modules are considered concrete files. Therefore, in addition to the required namespace, location hints must be provided to import library module files for that namespace. For example, the file typeahead.xq, downloadable from the Endeca Developer Network at http://eden.endeca.com/wiki/display/feature/XQuery, contains the following import lines. As you can see, a location hint consisting of the module name follows the namespace declarations.

import module namespace http = "http://www.endeca.com/XQuery/http/2008" at "http.xq";
import module namespace mdex = "http://www.endeca.com/XQuery/mdex/2008" at "mdex.xq";
import module namespace eutil = "http://www.endeca.com/XQuery/eutil/2008" at "eutil.xq";
import module namespace esoap = "http://www.endeca.com/XQuery/esoap/2008" at "esoap.xq";
import module namespace typeahead-wsdl = "http://www.endeca.com/XQuery/service/typeahead/wsdl/2008" at "typeahead-wsdl.xq";
