Hi Shane,
jsr 170 only supports values of single-valued properties in the result row. See
section 6.6.3.1. of the spec.
The JCR API does not have methods to retrieve multi-valued properties out of a
row. There is only:
- Row.getValue(String propertyName)
- Row.getValues()
Where the latter simply puts the value for each selected (sinlge-valued)
property into an array and returns it.
As you described, the workaround is to get the node and call
getProperty(propName).getValues()

Hi,
I am trying to perform the following query:
/jcr:root/some/path/(@lastName, @articles)
On the 1.1.1 RMI jackrabbit service running on
rmi:localhost:1099/jackrabbit.repository
The problem I am getting is that the 'articles' property is multi-valued
and
when I call the RowIterator method getValues("articles");
on the returned rows it always fails with a NullPointerException.
However if
I obtain the node via the 'jcr:path' value returned and then call
node.getProperty("articles").getValues(); This returns the correct values.
Is there an issue with querying properties with multiple values in the
XPath
query engine? I know that predicating properties with multivalues works
as I
am also doing the following:
/jcr:root/some/path/[EMAIL PROTECTED] 'aabb-aabbdd-a2203a'] which returns all
the
nodes which have the uuid as one of their articles.
Thanks for any help.
Shane Preater.
