           Summary: [JXPATH] Pointer invalid after iterating over Pointers
                    referencing atomic values
           Product: Commons
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: JXPath
        AssignedTo: commons-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: andreas.leitel@iclip.ch


We encountered a problem with Pointers when iterating over an array or a 
collection that holds atomic values such as Boolean. 

Actions:
- Create a bean exposing an array of Boolean objects
  getBoolArray()
- Obtain a Pointer iterator by calling:
  context.iteratePointers("somepath/boolArray");
- Iterate over all Pointers and store them in a new Collection
- Iterate over the new Collection
- For each Pointer, try to update the Boolean value.
--> The result is that only the last Boolean value of the original 
    array is updated.
    Apparently the Pointers do not keep the index of the referenced
    element withing the array. 
    The problem does also exist for Collections.
    
    We are using java5.

    We consider this to be an error since nowhere is stated that updating
    Pointer values is not possible after iterating over a list pointers.

    The only work around is to wrap the values (see Example)

Kind regards
Andreas

Example Code:

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Iterator;

    AModel model = new AModel();
    System.out.println("start with:");
    model.printIt();
    // get pointers
    JXPathContext context = JXPathContext.newContext(model);    
    // get the array pointers
    Iterator resultPointerIterator = context.iteratePointers
("/booleans/arrBool");
    while (resultPointerIterator.hasNext()){
      Pointer ptr = (Pointer)resultPointerIterator.next();

    }        
    // get list pointers
    resultPointerIterator = context.iteratePointers("/booleans/listBool");
