Okay. I think I've narrowed it down. I've found two bugs /
behavioral issues in the DescendantNode factory creation method.
1) Requires that the absolute path ends with a slash
In other words:
qomFactory.descendantNode("mySelector","/documents/myFolder" );
does not work, but the following does work:
qomFactory.descendantNode("mySelector","/documents/myFolder/" );
NOTE: session.getNode( ) works with both path forms. For the record,
the JCR specification doesn't show a trailing slash on absolute paths
( Sect. 3.4.4 Absolute and Relative Paths )
2) Even if I construct the path to end in a slash, if my folder name
includes spaces, this too seems to break the factory method. So, the
following will note work:
qomFactory.descendantNode("mySelector","/documents/My Folder/" );
Even though the following works just fine:
session.getNode("mySelector","/documents/My Folder/");
