[Axis2]XPath support for OM
Hi all,
A simple XPath support addon for OM based on Jaxen is checked in at
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/webservices/axis/trunk/archive/java/scratch/Ajith/XPath
All are welcome to have a look :)
Note - You will need the jaxen-core.jar in the classpath to run this.
Jaxen can be found at
http://www.jaxen.org/

this is just practical experience from doing: the real difficulty is
tracking and enforcing declared dependencies (especially during build).
it is also nice to have web page with list of addons (modules) with
short description and example how to use it - i have developed something
like that for xmlpull (http://www.xmlpull.org/v1/doc/addons.html)

The example in
http://cafeconleche.org/books/xmljava/chapters/ch16s07.html
looked straightforward; HTH.

Yeah we need something like the module stuff for other parts too ..
anyone have any bright ideas?

Hi,
Yep, the withNS test case is commented purposely. I couldn't make it
work (considering the fact that this piece of code was written in 2
hours last night :)). Will look at it soon.
Yes I checked out JXpath also. From the surface it seems that JXpath
is slightly more complicated to extend than Jaxen. But I will surely
look at JXPath as a possibility too.
I also feel that it is nice to have a "add on code base" where users
can browse and find any interesting piece of addon for their need, Say
XPath interpreter for OM etc. +1 if we are going to do that :)

Very nice :). Was the withNS test commented out on purpose?
BTW did you look at JXPath from Apache? Is one better than the other? If
they're comparable then keep it in the family and use the Apache one?
We need to find way to leep this kind of optional stuff somewhere that
users can pick up if they want without enlarging our base distribution.
Any thoughts on that?
