searching with xpath

[Fidel García Quesada <fi...@gmail.com>]

Hi, this is a simple question but i am newbie with jackrabbit and xpath

I have this in my repository:

..../aaa[1]/bbb[1]/tag = "1"
..../aaa[1]/bbb[1]/ccc/text = "text_demo1"
..../aaa[1]/bbb[2]/tag = "2"
..../aaa[1]/bbb[2]/ccc/text = "text_demo2"
..../aaa[2]/bbb[1]/tag = "1"
..../aaa[2]/bbb[1]/ccc/text = "text_demo3"
..../aaa[2]/bbb[2]/tag = "2"
..../aaa[2]/bbb[2]/ccc/text = "text_demo1"


i want select aaa who contains ((bbb with tag=1) AND (bbb(the same) who
contains ccc with text_demo1)), that's aaa[1]

I tried :
/jcr:root//element(*, aaa) [@bbb/tag='1' and jcr:contains(@bbb/ccc/text,
'text_demo1')]

but I have aaa[1] AND aaa[2] and I only want aaa[1]


I thought :
/jcr:root//element(*, bbb) [@tag='1' and jcr:contains(@ccc/text,
'text_demo1')]

and then go to bbb's parent. But I readed that parent axis is not supported
by jackrabbit.


Can someone help me?

Thanks

it will be supported in the 2.0 release.

for now you'll have to do that step manually when you iterate over the
result set.
