           Summary: Property "name" of a bean-array can't be reached due to
                    special handling with Maps
           Product: Commons
           Version: 1.2 Final
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: JXPath
        AssignedTo: commons-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: mirko.richter@compago.de


Pointing to the sample at
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/jxpath/users-guide.html#Map%20Element%20Access:
<code>
public class Employee {
    private Map addressMap = new HashMap();
    {
        addressMap.put("home", new Address(...));
        addressMap.put("office", new Address(...));
    }

    public Map getAddresses(){
       return addressMap;
    }
    ...
 }
[...]
String homeZipCode = (String)context.
        getValue("addresses[@name='home']/zipCode");
</code>

i realised that if "addresses" was an array of beans which contain the property
"name", the getter isn't called properly if evaluating
"addresses[@name='home']/zipCode".

------- Additional Comments From dmitri@plotnix.com  2006-05-05 00:52 -------
This question has been raised before. This is not really a bug, but a documented
feature of JXPath. See
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/jxpath/users-guide.html#Map%20Element%20Access

The specific paragraph discussing the issue: 'The attribute "name" can be used
not only with Maps, but with JavaBeans as well. The value of this attribute
represents the name of a property.'

Thus, it is a good idea to treat bean properties as entities rather than
attributes:  "foo/@name" will not work as expected, but "foo/name" will.

This feature has been out there for years, and I would be hesitant to change its
behavior.
