Abstract:
A method and associated system for selectively constructing a search result for a data requested by a search request specifying path information of a data node comprising the data. A template tree represents a hierarchy of the search result with expandable nodes which initially do not have actual data. A node of the template tree is dynamically expanded by a callback function to have a respective data for the node when the node is traversed for the first time during traversing the template tree according to the path information. The search result is created by expanding all nodes of the template tree that are specified in the path information. The data node in the search result is communicated to an entity that had originated the search request.
