Variable evaluation problem ?

           Summary: Variable evaluation problem ?
           Product: Commons
           Version: 1.0 Beta 1
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Critical
          Priority: Other
         Component: JXPath
        AssignedTo: commons-dev@jakarta.apache.org

We get a strange result with variable and/or pointer using.

Work well :
	context.getVariables().declareVariable("v1", "Dmitri");
	Pointer pointer1 = context.getPointer("/employees
[firstName=$v1]/lastName");
	Pointer pointer2 = context.getPointer("/employees[firstName=$v1]");

Doesn't seem to work :
	context.getVariables().declareVariable("v1", "Dmitri");
	Pointer pointer1 = context.getPointer("/employees[firstName=$v1]");
	Pointer pointer2 = context.getPointer("/employees[firstName=$v1]");

Reference pointer1 is a "BeanPointer".
Reference pointer2 is a "NullPointer", so its "getValue" method return 
always "null".

We can obtain only one pointer corresponding to a given expression. This 
problem appears only with path containing variables.
