Insert using JXpath?
Hi,
Im using jxpath with jdom and im wondering if it is possible
to insert an element between two other elements. I thought
context.setValue("document/paragraph[3],new Element("paragraph")); for
examlple
would do it but this replaces the existing paragraph[3] with the new one..
I need to insert...how can i do this...with jxpath?
Or should I just do it the jdom way?
Thanks,
-Dave

RE: Insert using JXpath?
Posted by David Rogers <da...@excira.com>.
Hi,
Thanks for the reply but I am still unclear on this.
I am concerned with the case were the path and leaf node
already exist when using a context.createPathAndSetValue(path, value) on a
JDOM.
Now if value is a string, i expect that the text of the existing leaf node
will be replaced with the string in value. -fine.
However, if value is a JDOM Element, then should the Element
be inserted at the specified index (rather than replace the existing
Element)?
Is this correct? Or how do i do an insert. (not a replace)
Is this behavior meant to be implemented in the createObject method of the
AbstractFactory?
If so maybe that is my problem, as i wrote my own JDOMFactory extending
AbstactFactory.
Is there a "standard" implementation of AbstractFactory for JDOM or DOM? I
looked but
could not find one.
Thanks,
Dave
