Select nodes by name or wildcard.
A NameTest is either a name, or a generic name that you can
specify with a wildcard expression. It is used in a step expression to select a
node sequence in the current step.
Select all books:
input()//book
The book element is specified by its
QName.
Retrieve Unicode transliterations for the current database:
declare namespace ino="http://namespaces.softwareag.com/tamino/response2" input()//ino:transliteration/ino:*/@*
In this query there are three steps that involve a
NameTest: The first one checks for the QName
transliteration that is qualified by the ino
namespace. The second name test uses the wildcard expression ino:*
that is true for all element nodes that are in the ino namespace.
The third name test uses the wildcard expression @* that is true
for all attributes.
