  Description copied from interface: `XPathQueryServiceImpl`
  Declare an external XPath variable and assign a value to it. A variable can be referenced inside an XPath expression as $variable. For example, if you declare a variable with

  you may use the variable in an XPath expression as follows:

       	//SPEECH[SPEAKER=$name]

  Any Java object may be passed as initial value. The query engine will try to map this into a corresponding XPath value. You may also pass an XMLResource as obtained from another XPath expression. This will be converted into a node.

  Specified by:
    `declareVariable` in interface `XPathQueryServiceImpl`
  Parameters:
    `qname` - a valid QName by which the variable is identified. Any prefix should have been mapped to a namespace, i.e. if a variable is called x:name, there should be a prefix/namespace mapping for the prefix x
    `initialValue` - the initial value, which is assigned to the variable
  Throws:
    `XMLDBException`

  Parameters:
    `backwardsCompatible` -
