[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JXPATH-61?page=comments#action_12429481 ] Chris Twiner commented on JXPATH-61: ------------------------------------
Is a further official release, incorporating revision 329964 of DOMNodePointer, planned? This revision includes a fix for empty xmlns="" attributes (equalStrings) which fixes the following bug in 1.2: Given the following document: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"; xmlns:uri="uriName" > <soapenv:Body> <getMediaInfo xmlns="uriName"> <sessionId xmlns="">sessionId-12345678</sessionId> <mediaId xmlns="">mediaId-fromClient-12345</mediaId> </getMediaInfo> </soapenv:Body> </soapenv:Envelope> the xpath /soapenv:Envelope/soapenv:Body/uri:getMediaInfo/sessionId = "sessionId-12345678" will return false. Which the specs seem to say should be true as xmlns="" is treated as no default namespace. cheers, chris PS(We've been very happily using 1.2 for 10 months or so in our projects, this is the first time I've seen any "problem" with it that I can't explain via the standards - brilliant effort). > [jxpath] Default Namespace not handled correctly > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: JXPATH-61 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JXPATH-61 > Project: Commons JXPath > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 1.2 Final > Environment: Operating System: All > Platform: All > Reporter: Richard Unger > Priority: Minor > > JXPath 1.2 does not handle the default namespace correctly.
