XPath queries using the "child" and "descendant" axes return the same results -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: XMLBEANS-333 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLBEANS-333 Project: XMLBeans Issue Type: Bug Components: XPath Affects Versions: Version 2.1 Environment: WIndows XP, Java Reporter: Joseph Conti The following 2 queries Strings return the same set of elements when used in XmlObject's and XmlCursor's selectPath(String path) method. "declare namespace ns1='http://www.gamingstandards.com/s2s/schemas/v1.2.6/' .//s2s:s2sBody/child::*" "declare namespace ns1='http://www.gamingstandards.com/s2s/schemas/v1.2.6/' .//s2s:s2sBody/descendant::*" The document the being queried has the form: <s2s:s2sMessage xmlns:s2s="http://www.gamingstandards.com/s2s/schemas/v1.2.6/"> <s2s:s2sHeader s2s:messageId="1181262999443" s2s:fromSystem="FromSystem" s2s:toSystem="ToSystem" s2s:dateTimeSent="2007-06-07T18:36:39.474-06:00"/> <s2s:s2sBody> <s2s:communications s2s:commandId="1181262999568" s2s:dateTime="2007-06-07T18:36:39.568-06:00" s2s:propertyId="1"> <s2s:commsOnLine s2s:s2sLocation="Here" s2s:s2sVersion="v1.0"/> </s2s:communications> </s2s:s2sBody> </s2s:s2sMessage> Both queries return: <xml-fragment v1:commandId="1181263236694" v1:dateTime="2007-06-07T18:40:36.694-06:00" v1:propertyId="1" xmlns:v1="http://www.gamingstandards.com/s2s/schemas/v1.2.6/"> <v1:commsOnLine v1:s2sLocation="Here" v1:s2sVersion="v1.0"/> </xml-fragment> <xml-fragment v1:s2sLocation="Here" v1:s2sVersion="v1.0" xmlns:v1="http://www.gamingstandards.com/s2s/schemas/v1.2.6/"/> Which I believe is the correct result for the query that uses "descendants" that is all descendants (children, grandchildren, etc.) of the Body element are returned. But my understanding is that the query using "child" should only return the immediate child of Body that is: <xml-fragment v1:commandId="1181263236694" v1:dateTime="2007-06-07T18:40:36.694-06:00" v1:propertyId="1" xmlns:v1="http://www.gamingstandards.com/s2s/schemas/v1.2.6/"> <v1:commsOnLine v1:s2sLocation="Here" v1:s2sVersion="v1.0"/> </xml-fragment> -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
