Abstract
A method for indexing a structured document includes providing a multi-path index definition associated with a data model corresponding to a structured document. The multi-path index definition includes a sub-path definition that covers a root element's descendant elements and includes at least one index property. When a first path expression representing a first descendant element from a first structured document is received, the method includes determining that the first descendant element is covered by the sub-path definition based on the first path expression, indexing the first descendant element according to the index property to generate a path-value pair, and storing the path-value pair and a reference to the first structured document in an inverted multi-path index.
