backslash seach not working in chinese character in marklogic

Question

I am using following cts query for the search in MarkLogic

cts:element-word-query(xs:QName('c:l10n'),'\*\漢\*',('wildcarded','case-insensitive','whitespace-sensitive'))

It is not giving any result although there exists some data in the database with "\漢" words.

already tried: It is working fine with English characters like \r,\n or /r,/n. also, it gives me perfect result if I use only \ or 漢. but always show 0 results whenever I use \ with any Chinese character.

Answer 1

It is possible that there is a tokenization bug here, but it is hard to tell.

What you (should) have here is a phrase query for "\" (wildcard-word) "\" "漢" "\" and (wildcard-word) in that order. It is punctuation sensitive. Do you have an example of some content you think should match?

What does the query plan show you? What are your index settings?
