http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39397 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: [email protected] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 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; import org.apache.commons.jxpath.JXPathContext; import org.apache.commons.jxpath.Pointer; public class JXPathTest { /** * @param args */ @SuppressWarnings({"unchecked","unchecked"}) public static void main(String[] args) { ArrayList arrayPointers = new ArrayList(); ArrayList listPointers = new ArrayList(); ArrayList listWrappedPointers = new ArrayList(); 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(); arrayPointers.add(ptr); } // get list pointers resultPointerIterator = context.iteratePointers("/booleans/listBool"); while (resultPointerIterator.hasNext()){ Pointer ptr = (Pointer)resultPointerIterator.next(); listPointers.add(ptr); } // get wrapped boolean pointers resultPointerIterator = context.iteratePointers ("/booleans/listWrappedBool/booleanValue"); while (resultPointerIterator.hasNext()){ Pointer ptr = (Pointer)resultPointerIterator.next(); listWrappedPointers.add(ptr); } // modify pointers: We just invert every values // modify array content via iterated pointer (case Boolean[]) Iterator it = arrayPointers.iterator(); while (it.hasNext()){ Pointer ptr = (Pointer)it.next(); ptr.setValue(Boolean.TRUE.equals(ptr.getValue())?
