Hello:
I've run into some problems with the __XPath function. I use it as the 'Value'
of a HTTP sampler parameter:
-----------------------------------------------------
${__XPath(prodcodes.xml, /root/code)}
-----------------------------------------------------
This obtains a product code from the prodcodes.xml file, whose content looks
like this:
-----------------------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<root>
<code>00000123</code>
<code>00001234</code>
<code>00012345</code>
...
</root>
-----------------------------------------------------
However, this __XPath function call always evaluates to value "null".
The jmeter.log simply notes the prodcodes.xml file being used, and then 'Stop
Thread' signal when the HTTP sampler fails due to "null" not being a product
code:
-----------------------------------------------------

-----------------------------------------------------
Any thoughts on what could be wrong? Our setup uses JMeter 2.3.1 - I didn't see
any bugzilla entries for __XPath
Regards,

PS: I use __XPath() because the HTTP sampler runs within a loop and it needs to
use a new product code in every iteration of the loop. CSV Data Set Config et
al allocate one config item per thread.
