Julian Reschke commented on JCR-1288:
-------------------------------------
I wasn't trying with Jackrabbit at all; I'm using the query parser of
Jackrabbit in a custom component.
Thanks for the feedback, will have to investigate further.
> query parser doesn't handle relative XPath expressions

> Key: JCR-1288
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-1288
> Project: Jackrabbit
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: jackrabbit-core
> Reporter: Julian Reschke
> Priority: Minor
>
> JSR-170 says that relative query (XPATH) expression are evaluated against
> "/jcr:root", thus
> (1) a/b
> and
> (2) /jcr:root/a/b
> would be equivalent, while
> (3) /a/b
> means something else (will never match anything). Unfortunately, the query
> parser seems to treat (1) and (3) the same way, which makes it hard to
> disnguish the two cases.
> (this probably means that Jackrabbit accepts a class of broken queries (3)
> that it shouldn't accept)
