range index on mixed content node in exist db

Question

My xml file is with the structure

<root>
    <compound>abc<parts>a b c</parts></compound>
    <compound>xyz<parts>x y z</parts></compound>
</root>

I have created a range index on

<range>
    <create qname="compound" type="xs:string"/>
</range>

I expected the index terms are abca b c and xyzx y z but I found abc and xyz under index link in monitoring and profiling window. And also the search string

//compound[.="abca b c"] giving 0 results.

Can any one help in creating index on the whole contents of compound like on abca b c, xyz x y z so on..

Thanks

In xquery, you have to use data() function in order to return all of the descendant or the sub-element values. So, to test if the values of the compound element can be returned you can use the following:

//compound/data()[.="abca b c"]

but does it use the index created on node – Sony Moparthi Apr 06 '16 at 15:50
you can have a try! The marklogic documentation for the fn:data() function: https://docs.marklogic.com/fn:data – Kindle Q Apr 11 '16 at 06:03

 nested="yes" attribute solved the problem.

I have changed the range index to

<range>
    <create qname="compound" type="xs:string" nested="yes" />
</range>
