Hi
I use Xindice 1.1b1 in combination with JAXB and Cocoon for a project at university. The xml files I store in the xindice collections are instances of (w3c-)schema documents with a target-namespace (which is "http://www.ngstore.at/ns";).
To retrieve documents from xindice collections, I use the XPathQueryService class. Because I specified schemas with target namespace I have to use a namespace in xpath queries. I originally wanted to use default namespaces with XPathQueryService using:
service.setDefaultNamespace("http://www.ngstore.at/ns";);But this method is no longer present in xindice 1.1b1 (it was in 1.0). Then I tried the same using
service.setNamespace("","http://www.ngstore.at/ns";);This should work according to the api-javadoc. The query is executed but I always get an empty ResourceSet.
Everything works fine if I specify a prefix using
service.setNamespace("ng","http://www.ngstore.at/ns";);But then I have to alter the xpath query (for instance "/[EMAIL PROTECTED]'1000']" to "/ng:[EMAIL PROTECTED]'1000']"). This is not a real problem but I am curious about default namespaces. I really want to know why it is not working. Is it a temporary problem of xindice 1.1b1 or is the namespace handling with xpath completely changed in version greater than 1.0 (most parts seem to be the same)?
nice greetings Michael
