[MarkLogic Dev General] Marklogic query help

[Geert Josten]

Hi Abdul,

Short answer: no.

You could retrieve values from one doc, optionally using lexicons, and
check them against a different doc, using lexicons or search. But you
would have to make a list which values you would like to include in the
compare, retrieve them all, pass them to a combined search query on the
other doc.

Comparisons, often applied to detect doc changes, are usually done on hash
keys, which are pre-calculated and stored as doc property or attribute on
the doc itself. Perhaps that could apply to your case too?

Kind regards,
Geert
