Check out the org.apache.jackrabbit.util.ISO9075 class in the jackrabbit-jcr-commons library. It contains static encode() and decode() methods that implement the _x_ escaping mechanism used in JCR.

Encountered: "2" (50), after : "%" Is there a way to get around this? XPath goes against the "document view" of the repository, thus you have escape names using the rules in JSR 170, Section 6.4.3. For instance, a space character would become "_x0020_". Best regards, Julian
Escaping node names in xpath queries
We're having problems running an xpath query where a node name in the xpath contains blank spaces. For example, the following query won't work because of the blank space in the name "Node A": /jcr:root//mypath/Node A//element(*, myType) order by @cx:created ascending We tried uri encoding the name, which replaces the space with %20, but that gives us this error: javax.jcr.query.InvalidQueryException: Lexical error at line 1, column 110. Encountered: "2" (50), after : "%": Lexical error at line 1, column 110. Encountered: "2" (50), after : "%": Lexical error at line 1, column 110. Encountered: "2" (50), after : "%" Is there a way to get around this? -- James -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Escaping-node-names-in-xpath-queries-tf3336904.html#a9280479 Sent from the Jackrabbit - Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
