Boris Dushanov commented on AXIOM-483:
--------------------------------------
Axis2 code seems to be fine and according to the WS policy specification.It's
the existing users' WS policies out there that rely on the legacy behavior in
Axiom i.e. policies that have been working in 1.2.x won't work in 1.3.x because
of the changed Axiom behavior.
> OMElementImpl.getChildrenWithName() is too restrictive and not compatible
> with 1.2.x

> Key: AXIOM-483
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIOM-483
> Project: Axiom
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: LLOM
> Affects Versions: 1.3.0
> Reporter: Boris Dushanov
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 1.3.0
>
>
> In 1.2.x org.apache.axiom.om.impl.llom.OMElementImpl.getChildrenWithName()
> contains the following comment:
> // The getChidrenWithName method used to tolerate an empty namespace
> // and interpret that as getting any element that matched the local
> // name. There are custmers of axiom that have hard-coded
> dependencies
> // on this semantic.
> // The following code falls back to this legacy behavior only if
> // (a) elementQName has no namespace, (b) the new iterator finds no
> elements
> // and (c) there are children.
> This seems to be not the case in 1.3.0 and the method is now restrictive.The
> current behavior is correct but the problem is that it's not backward
> compatible and will lead to many issues.
