Alexander Klimetschek reopened JCR-2797:
----------------------------------------
Ok, I tested an expression like /content// in an Xpath tool (on an XML doc, see
[1]), where it worked.
Looking at it again, /jcr:root/content//node() should then do what I want. It
is executed in Jackrabbit, but does not return the /content node, only all
nodes below.
[1] http://www.whitebeam.org/library/guide/TechNotes/xpathtestbed.rhtm using
the expression /parent/pet//

> A pure descendant-or-self axis "//" does not work, albeit it is defined in
> JCR 1.0, section 6.6.4.6. Running this query
> /jcr:root/content//
> returns an error:
> Encountered "$" at line 1, column 38. Was expecting one of: "or" ... "and"
> ... "div" ... "idiv" ... "mod" ... "*" ... "return" ... "to" ... "where" ...
> "intersect" ... "union" ... "except" ... ... ... "/" ... "//" ... "=" ...
> "is" ... "!=" ... "<=" ... "<<" ... ">=" ... ">>" ... "eq" ... "ne" ... "gt"
> ... "ge" ... "lt" ... "le" ... "<" ... ">" ... "-" ... "+" ... "|" ... "["
> ... ... ... ... ... "," ... ... ... for statement: for $v in
> /jcr:root/content// return $v
> It only works in combination with another location step, like
> /jcr:root/content//* or /jcr:root/content//test. Tested this on a 2.2
> snapshot, but I think it was actually never supported so far.
> The use case comes up when searching for a property in a subtree of a certain
> node, where you want to include a property on that node directly as well, eg.
> /jcr:root/content//[...@my:prop = 'value']
