[JXPATH] - misunderstood XPath response

Hi,

I request a XML document which could be something like that :
<ROOT>
  <FOO>
    <NAME>my_name</NAME>
    <ID>my_id</ID>
  </FOO>
  <FOO>
    <NAME>your_name</NAME>
    <ID>your_id</ID>
  </FOO>
</ROOT>


As I would like to get a particular FOO, I use the following XPath query
:
document/ROOT/FOO[NAME='my_name']
The XML I expect is
<FOO>
  <NAME>my_name</NAME>
  <ID>my_id</ID>
</FOO>

But I get :
  <FOO>
    <NAME>my_name</NAME>
    <ID>my_id</ID>
  </FOO>
  <FOO>
    <NAME>your_name</NAME>
    <ID>your_id</ID>
  </FOO>

If I use the query document/ROOT/FOO[NAME='my_name']/*, I get the nodes
I expect but without the FOO one, ie :
  <NAME>my_name</NAME>
  <ID>my_id</ID>


Where is the problem/bug ?

Thanks for your help.

Franck.

RE : [JXPATH] - misunderstood XPath response

Posted by LANTRES Franck <fr...@fr.renault-sport-f1.com>.

Here is another problem I get from this morning :
I still use the same example.

If I use the "document/ROOT/FOO/ID" XPath query, I get two matches :
- the first contains <ID>my_id</ID><ID>your_id</ID>
- the second contains <ID>your_id</ID>

Note that I use pointers and the method context.iteratePointers.
I really don't understand how JXPath is working ......

Help !!!!

Franck.
