[jira] Commented: (JCR-61) Docview import fails, if attribute and childelem have same name

Stefan Guggisberg commented on JCR-61:
--------------------------------------

i was wrong, this is not a specification issue.

=======================================
quote from the specification:

7.3.2 Import from Document View

...

10. An XML element can have a child element and an attribute with the same name while a JCR node cannot have a child node and property with the same name. For example, <a b="x"><b/></a> would imply a JCR node with one property called b and one child node also called b, which is not allowed. Therefore if such a fragment of XML is encountered on import it is an implementation issue as to how to deal with it. 

=======================================

so the current behaviour (ItemExistsException) is accordance with the spec 
("is an implementation issue as to how to deal with it").

but i guess we will have to come up with a way to import such xml fragments
(e.g. with a child node construct that represents a 'colliding' property,
similar to jcr:xmltext for character data)
