xdt transform locator that matches subnode content

Question

i have the following node in web.config:

...

 
  core
 <         


        

Answer 1

Add an extra test for text() into the locator. To match the <param> node:

xdt:Locator="XPath(./param[@desc='database' and text()='master'])">

EDIT: To match the <agent> node you need to move param into the predicate that XPath is matching:

xdt:Locator="Condition(param/@desc='database' and param/text()='master')">
