Rahul Akolkar updated SCXML-70:
-------------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: 0.8)
Remaining Estimate: (was: 48h)
Original Estimate: (was: 48h)
Unlikely to change in v0.8 and removing time estimates (we haven't started
doing that yet).
> Inconsistent behavior between Data(name, '.'), single-node XML tree and
> multiple-node XML tree within <send> namelist

> Key: SCXML-70
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SCXML-70
> Project: Commons SCXML
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 0.5, 0.6, 0.7
> Reporter: Javier Arauz
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.0
>
>
> When using JEXL, expression Data(name, '.') correctly returns the first node
> in the set of XML trees under data element 'name'. However, when executing a
> <send> action that includes 'name' in the namelist attribute, what is passed
> down to the execution environment is an XML tree rooted with a <data> element.
> That semantic of <send> is not usually what an application expects. For
> instance, say the application wants to send back an HTML page to a requesting
> client:
> <data name='ContentType' expr='text/html'/>
> <data name='EntityBody'><html><body>Hi there!</body></html></data>
> <send targettype='x-http' namelist='ContentType EnttityBody'/>
> The execution environment receives 'text/html' in the parameter
> 'ContentType', as expected. But in parameter 'EntityBody' it receives a
> <data> node wrapping the HTML content, which when sent to the client can't of
> course be properly handled. This forces the execution environment to perform
> specific processing for the latter case.
> To align the three behaviors, the first child of the <data> element (as
> opposed to the <data> element itself) should be passed down to the execution
> environment in all cases.
