Hello,
I'm confused about org.dom4j.Node's method selectSingleNode(String) - it's
supposed to return a Node. What happens when the XPath expression doesn't
find anything is not documented, but I'd assume that it would return null.
Instead, it throws an exception - the message in the exception suggests you
try another method such as selectObject() to evaluate the results of the
expression:
org.dom4j.XPathException: Exception occurred evaluting XPath: The result of
the XPath expression is not a Node. It was: true of type: java.lang.Boolean.
You might want to use a different method such as selectObject() to evaluate
this XPath expression
at org.dom4j.xpath.DefaultXPath.selectSingleNode(DefaultXPath.java:163)
at org.dom4j.tree.AbstractNode.selectSingleNode(AbstractNode.java:188)
at [... etc]
I can use selectObject() or some other method to try to get to the nodes I'm
interested in, but the behavior kind of bites. Is this a bug?
Cheers,
- R
