Can I use Xerces-C to perform XPath searches on an XML file by itself?

I don't have a corresponding schema, don't know how to make one and my
XML files are rather large and somewhat complex.

TIA,

This is my code:

  DOMDocument* doc = parser->parseURI(xmlFile);
  DOMElement* elem = doc->getDocumentElement();
  XMLCh* xpathStr = (XMLCh*) "//root/table/size";
  DOMNode* node = (DOMNode*) elem;
DOMXPathResult* result = doc->evaluate(xpathStr, node, NULL, DOMXPathResult::ANY_TYPE, NULL);
  cout << "result: " << result << endl;

...and this is the error message I am getting:

  Exception message is:
expression has incorrect syntax or contains XPath features not supported by the XML Schema XPath subset
