Christoph Kiehl updated JCR-740:
--------------------------------

    Attachment: patch.txt

This patch is a prototype for supporting jcr:contains calls that use 
descendent-or-self-axis as their root:

/foo/bar/*[jcr:contains(//*, term)]

It does not support queries which use descendent-or-self-axis on childnodes:

NOT SUPPORTED: /foo/bar/*[jcr:contains(test//*, term)]

Right now it uses a keyword to recognize descendent-or-self-axis queries:

/foo/bar/*[jcr:contains(DESCENDENT_OR_SELF, term)]

We used to have queries like this:

/foo/bar/*[jcr:contains(., term) or jcr:contains(*, term) or jcr:contains(*/*, 
term)]

In this construct the term query is executed three times which leads to long 
execution times whereas the query above is much faster because the term query 
is only executed once.

This is just a prototype and I would like to know what you think about it. The 
patch needs better integration with the query builder so that we don't need to 
use a keyword but can use "//*" instead.

> For example,
> I want to find the root of a node tree that contains a node with a specified 
> id. The child node may be n layers deep in the node tree. In my specific 
> case, I know how deep it is so
> //element(*, my:foo)[bar/*/*/*/*/@jcr:uuid = 'abc']
> finds the node of type my:foo that contains the child node with id 'abc'.
> Now, I would like to generalize this so I thought i could simply do the 
> following.
> //element(*, my:foo)[bar//*/@jcr:uuid = 'abc']
> but this does not work.
