Apologies if I am hard to understand but I am new to the XML querying. I would like to query an XML with namespaces.
As I did learn, you can do it in BaseX by including an *: in your path, e.g.,
db:open("myrimatchSubset","20160312_17_B3_myrimatch_2_2_140.xml")/*:MzIdentML/*:SequenceCollection/*:Peptide
But I would like to be more specific than *. I did search the schema for the XML and all I found related to the search term namespace is not brief name, but: targetNamespace="http://psidev.info/psi/pi/mzIdentML/1.1"
I did also found the following entry on stack overflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5239685/xml-namespace-breaking-my-xpath
And If I interpret the answer there correctly somehow one can register his own acronym for a namespace? Is this correct? So I am wondering if I could do the same somehow in BaseX?
Alternatively, I am wondering if I could tell BaseX to disable namespace checking?
Thank you a lot
