Re: XPath query with path constraint and same name siblings

[Gadbury]

Hi Justin,

Thanks for your reply.  I wish to perform a query at a given ('provider')
node, to find all nodes of a certain type that are children of the provider. 
I had been using the provider node's path to provide the path constraint in
the query.  The problem was that the first provider node's path returns
../provider, rather than ../provider[1].

How do you mean by node graph?  Please would you be able to provide an
example...?  Do you mean call getNodes() on the providerNode?  If so, how
would I supply property or type constraints?

This is what I am currently doing:

        Node providerNode = jcrSession.getNodeByUUID(providerRepositoryUUID);
        
        String providerNodePath = providerNode.getPath();
        
        //Nasty same name siblings!  The first same name sibling i.e. provider
doesn't have the array index notation.  
        //Therefore, the path of the first provider is ../provider and not
../provider[1].  Without the array index notation, we get all providers!
        if (providerNode.getIndex() == 1)
                providerNodePath += "[1]";
                                
        QueryManager queryManager = jcrSession.getWorkspace().getQueryManager();
        String queryString = "/jcr:root" + providerNodePath + "//element(*,
atl:account)";
        Query query = queryManager.createQuery(queryString, Query.XPATH);
        QueryResult queryResult = query.execute();

Thanks and kind regards,

James
