Brian,
I tried asking this question before - you answered the question correctly
but I asked it incorrectly! Here's the updated question:
If I have a list of properties that I'm storing in xml like this:
<map-array name="properties">
<entries>
<string name="name" value="status-display-dispatched" />
<string name="value" value="Earmarked" />
</entries>
<entries>
<string name="name" value="status-display-contacted" />
<string name="value" value="Contacted" />
</entries>
<entries>
<string name="name" value="status-display-travelling" />
<string name="value" value="Travelling" />
</entries>
...
How can I individually update each <string name="value"> element? I might
want to change only two of the above properties, to look like this:
<map-array name="properties">
<entries>
<string name="name" value="status-display-dispatched" />
<string name="value" value="Assigned" />
</entries>
<entries>
<string name="name" value="status-display-contacted" />
<string name="value" value="Notified" />
</entries>
<entries>
<string name="name" value="status-display-travelling" />
<string name="value" value="Travelling" />
</entries>
...
Thanks,
TimM
The below tries to remove the path //entries/string for the given
attribute value You should be able to specify a similar predicate thus
(note: I haven't tried this)
<remove path="//entries[string/@value='properties']"/>
which should remove //entries where string/@value='properties'.
Please let me know if this works or not for you.
