I am trying to get the count of nodes in an XML field. but I always see 0 as the result. Here is how my query looks like.
我试图获取XML字段中的节点数。但我总是看到0结果。这是我的查询的样子。
DECLARE @XmlTable TABLE (XmlResult XML)
INSERT INTO @XmlTable EXECUTE [dbo].usp_GetBooks @EditionId=400
--select * from @XmlTable
SELECT
--Count number of nodes
COUNT(*) AS BooksCount
FROM
(
SELECT XmlResult FROM @XmlTable
) AS XmlTable(XmlColumn)
CROSS APPLY XmlColumn.nodes('./books/book') XmlTableFunction(XmlColumn2);
My XML Looks like :
我的XML看起来像:
<Version number ="1">
<books>
<book>
<name> </name>
<author></author>
</book>
<book>
<name> </name>
<author></author>
</book>
</books>
</Version>

I think your XPath expression is wrong - try this instead:
我认为你的XPath表达式是错误的 - 试试这个:
DECLARE @XmlTable TABLE (XmlResult XML)
INSERT INTO @XmlTable EXECUTE [dbo].usp_GetBooks @EditionId=400
SELECT
COUNT(*) AS BooksCount
FROM
(SELECT XmlResult FROM @XmlTable) AS XmlTable(XmlColumn)
CROSS APPLY
XmlColumn.nodes('/Version/books/book') XmlTableFunction(XmlColumn2)
Or even simpler:
甚至更简单:
DECLARE @XmlTable TABLE (XmlResult XML)
INSERT INTO @XmlTable EXECUTE [dbo].usp_GetBooks @EditionId=400
SELECT
XmlResult.value('count(/Version/books/book)', 'int')
FROM
@XmlTable

Works for me with the XML pattern you give
使用您提供的XML模式为我工作
DECLARE @XmlTable TABLE (XmlResult XML)
INSERT INTO @XmlTable VALUES ('<books><book><title>GWTW</title></book></books>')
INSERT INTO @XmlTable VALUES ('<foo />')
INSERT INTO @XmlTable VALUES ('<books />')
SELECT
COUNT(*) AS BooksCount
FROM
(
SELECT XmlResult FROM @XmlTable
) AS XmlTable(XmlColumn)
CROSS APPLY XmlColumn.nodes('./books/book') XmlTableFunction(XmlColumn2);
Exist method is quite useful too. I use NULLIF to change 0 to NULL (it is bit so would need CAST with SUM)
Exist方法也非常有用。我使用NULLIF将0更改为NULL(它有点因此需要使用SUM进行CAST)
SELECT COUNT(NULLIF(XmlResult.exist('./books/book'), 0)) FROM @XmlTable

The XML you posted is wrong too.
您发布的XML也是错误的。
You are not specifying the root note correctly:
您没有正确指定根音符:
DECLARE @XmlTable TABLE (XmlResult XML)
INSERT INTO @XmlTable VALUES ('
<Version number ="1">
<books>
<book>
<name> </name>
<author></author>
</book>
<book>
<name> </name>
<author></author>
</book>
</books>
</Version>')
SELECT
COUNT(*)
FROM
(
SELECT XmlResult FROM @XmlTable
) AS XmlTable(XmlColumn)
CROSS APPLY XmlColumn.nodes('/Version/books/book') XmlTableFunction(XmlColumn2);
SELECT
COUNT(*)
FROM
(
SELECT XmlResult FROM @XmlTable
) AS XmlTable(XmlColumn)
CROSS APPLY XmlColumn.nodes('*/books/book') XmlTableFunction(XmlColumn2);
