Hello!
I just need a simple source code example which it uses API & Java. It is about join and XQUERY language. I know that in Tamino Interactive Interface, I can execute query in XQUERY notation like the following one:
--------
for
$b in input()/bib/book,
$a in input()/reviews/entry
where $b/title = $a/title
return
{ $b/author}
{ $b/title }
{ $a/review }
--------
How can I use in APIs?
Simple sample code will be very appreciated.
In advance, Thanks a lot!
best regards,
Dariusz Baumann
Hello Dariusz,
the Tamino API for Java now has a new method:
public TResponse xquery(TXQuery xquery) throws TXQueryException
(The construction of a TXQuery instance is done in the same way as a TQuery.)
I hope that helps,
Trevor.
First of all, thanks for a quick reply Trevor! 
I have just found new method “xquery”, I now have been trying to use it in properly way. Unfortunately, I could not achieve any success. 
My source code is (named ProcessPersonsDOM4JX.java):

After I executed this code I got:
-------------
Connecting to Tamino database http://localhost/tamino/mydb, … server is alive
Here is some systeminformation
------------------------------
The Tamino server hosting http://localhost/tamino/mydb is version 4.1.1.1
(Server API version: 4.1, Tamino API for Java version: 4.1.1.1)
The query “for $b in input()/person return $b” returns no documents!
-------------
However in Tamino Interactive Interface, when execute the following xquery
-------------
for $b in input()/person
return $b
-------------
I got records from mydb database Tamino. So in TII, xquery works!
How should I fix my source code to make it works?
Any help will be appreciated.
In advance, thanks a lot!

Hello!
I also have been trying to use “QUERY” and “JOIN” in java source code. Unfortunately, I couldn’t achieve any success. I attached my sample code for XQUERY.
-----------------------
SampleXQuery.java
bib-schema.TSD
bib.XML
reviews-schema.TSD
reviews.XML
-----------------------
It still doesn’t work.
Please help me, in advance thanks a lot!
best regards,

Hello Dariusz,
I think that your code is correct, but there might be some issues with the schema/query.
Unfortunately, the zip file that you posted did not post correctly - when I try to download it I only get “broken.gif”!
However, I changed a couple of lines of code to access a schema that I already have in my system and I get the following results:
Connecting to Tamino database http://localhost/tamino/test, ... server is alive
Here is some systeminformation
------------------------------
The Tamino server hosting http://localhost/tamino/test is version 4.1.1.3
(Server API version: 4.1, Tamino API for Java version: 4.1.1.1)
The query "for $b in input()/A return $b" returns <xq:value/>
documents, which are:
<A>
<B b="1"/>
<C>a</C>
<D>alternative</D>
</A><A xmlns:ino="http://namespaces.softwareag.com/tamino/response2">
<B b="3"/>
<C>c</C>
<D>drek</D>
</A>
Things to note are:
- I didn’t change the code much - just the URL, the query and the print statement.
- We have different Tamino versions (I have 4.1.1.3)
- The result of [printing] the count is not quite what I would expect!
Perhaps you could try posting the zip file again, or just pasting the schema into a posting?
Thanks,
Trevor.
P.S. I don’t know if it is terribly important, but I used Java 1.3.1 (1.3.1_06-b01) and DOM4J 1.3 for the test.
