Toshiro Takase commented on WSCOMMONS-41:
-----------------------------------------
In my understanding, it seems that the XPath works fine in the XPathTest2.
In testAbsolutePath(), "/elem1" does not select any nodes. That is correct, I
think.
In XPath, starting from "/" means the document root.
So, in this case, the root element is soap envelope, that is not "elem1".
If you would like to select "elem1" element, the following XPaths would work.
String XPathString = "/*/*/elem1";
String XPathString = ".";
String XPathString = "../elem1";
The following XPath selects "elem2".
String XPathString = "elem2";
-----
By the way, both "//elem1" and "/elem1" seem absolute location path in the
XPath terms. :)
