1.29.9.17.2. Query Execution

SQL

The use of "%" in the LIKE statement includes any string, therefore there is a second LIKE statement that excludes that the string contains "/". This way child nodes are included but descendant nodes are excluded.

// make SQL query

QueryManager queryManager = workspace.getQueryManager();

// create query

String sqlStatement = "SELECT * FROM nt:folder WHERE jcr:path LIKE '/folder1/folder2/%' AND NOT jcr:path LIKE '/folder1/folder2/%/%'";

Query query = queryManager.createQuery(sqlStatement, Query.SQL);

// execute query and fetch result

QueryResult result = query.execute();

XPath

// make XPath query

QueryManager queryManager = workspace.getQueryManager();

// create query

String xpathStatement = "/jcr:root/folder1[1]/folder2[1]/element(*,nt:folder)";

Query query = queryManager.createQuery(xpathStatement, Query.XPATH);

// execute query and fetch result

QueryResult result = query.execute();
