I'm learning that cts:search() is vastly faster then xpath expressions
...

So I'm trying to come up with a cts:search() for the following

 

doc("/NDFRT/NDFRT_Public_2009.05.12_TDE.xml")//conceptDef[empty(defining
Concepts/concept)]

 

 

This is searching for all conceptDef elements which have no
definingConcepts/concept children

 

This is taking about 10 seconds right now.

I cant find any cts:* query which queries for non-existance of child
nodes.



Last resort I was thinking of pre-batch-updating these nodes with an
attribute so I could search on an attribute value.

But was hoping for a query like cts:empty-element-query()

 

 

Any suggestions ?   Thanks !
