For what it's worth: My impression from reading through much of the documentation is that JXPath focusses on general navigation in graphs, and makes it fairly easy to support other graph models. For me it is interesting as a means of using the XPath syntax for navigating in ER-like models. At the same time, this lack of XML focus makes me less confident that XPath 1.0 is supported, but I have no specific experience to say it does or does not support it. I can imaging using both, JXPath for navigating in ER-like models of JGraph graphs, which is interesting, and Jaxen for JDOM, DOM etc. It is useful to reuse the XPath syntax, but these two usages are quite different wrt. requirements for complete support for the XPath 1.0 standard, extensibility etc. Hallvard _______________________________________________________________ Have big pipes?
