RE: selectPath and executeQuery: the result is different, why?

My environment:

xmlbeans-2.0.0-beta1, saxonb8-1-1, JDK 1.5.0.

The following code is changed according to your instruction:

String nsText = "declare namespace po = 'http://openuri.org/easypo';";

String pathText = ".//po:[EMAIL PROTECTED]'ss']";

String queryText = nsText + pathText;

XmlObject[] customers = (XmlObject[])poDoc.execQuery( queryText ) ;

for ( int i = 0 ; i < customers.length ; i++ )

{

Customer typedObj = (Customer) customers[0].changeType ( Customer.type );

System.out.println( "Customer address: " + typedObj.getAddress() ) ;

}

The address returned is null.

I find that for saxonb8-2, if I use selectPath() in the above code, the code throws “Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: net.sf.saxon.xpath.XPathEvaluator.setStaticContext(Lnet/sf/saxon/expr/StaticContext;)V” but for saxonb8-1-1, it works well.

If I use saxon saxonb8-4, the code throws “java.lang.RuntimeException: No query engine found”.

Thanks for your help.

What version of the code are you working with – we have a test /xmlbeans/trunk/test/src/xmlcursor/xpath/complex/checkin/ContainerCommentTest.java that uses the $that variable and passes fine – I seem to remember there was a bug that was fixed a while ago regarding $that.

We currently do not type the result of XQuery – I think that will be hard to do but need to look into it further …If you need the result typed please open a bug and we’ll look into it more deeply. For now you can use .changeType to manually type the results:

XmlObject[] results = o.execQuery(“…”);

MyType typedObj = (MyType) results[0].changeType ( MyType.type );

Subject: selectPath and executeQuery: the result is different, why?

I use easypo sample to study how to use XPath to select XML according to the instruction in conSelectingXMLwithXQueryPathXPath.html

For the following query express,

String pathText =xqNamesapce + "$this//po:[EMAIL PROTECTED]'ss']";

Customer[] customers = (Customer[])poDoc.selectPath( queryText ) ;

I got the following exception:

java.lang.RuntimeException: net.sf.saxon.xpath.StaticError: XPath syntax error at char 5 in {$this//po:customer}:

Variable $this has not been declared

If I change the express to (replace “$this” with “.”):

String pathText =xqNamesapce + ".//po:[EMAIL PROTECTED]'ss']";

The code works well.

If I use executeQuery() instead of selectPaht(), I find that I have to use “$$this” or “.” to replace “$this” in the above pathText string, or no result is found. I also find that the return type of the executeQuery() is XmlAnyTypeImpl, instead of CustomerImpl.

I do not know if I configure my runtime environment incorrectly or I misunderstand the content in conSelectingXMLwithXQueryPathXPath.html?

Thanks for your help very much.
