Hi!
I am trying to traverse some nodes in a repository. I am facing the following
problem:
1/ a Value has the type PropertyType.REFERENCE (jcr:predecessors)
2/ according to the spec I should use the Property.getNode() to retrieve the
reference node
Unfortunately this results in the following exception:
javax.jcr.ValueFormatException: /features/mailform/thanks/jcr:predecessors is
multi-valued and can
therefore only be retrieved as an array of values

Am I doing something wrong?
yep, i'm afraid so;)
from javadoc of Property.getNode():
<quote>
... If this property is multi-valued, this method throws a
ValueFormatException. ...

this has been discussed in an earlier thread:
