public List selectNodes(String xpathExpression)selectNodes evaluates an XPath expression and returns the result as a List of Node instances or String instances depending on the XPath expression.
But this does not match the javadocs. So is the documentation incorrect - or is it how it operates?
David,
IMHO, the documentation is inaccurate, and the implementation is fine. The implementation is also more in line with XPath 2.0, where you have the concept of sequence, which can contain simple types (strings, doubles, etc) and complex types (e.g. elements). So calling selectList() does pretty much the same thing as calling selectObject, except it puts the result of a selectObject() in a list/sequence when it is not already a list/sequence.
