> Receiving duplicate list entries for XPATH expression on XML document via
> org.apache.commons.configuration.HierarchicalConfiguration.configurationsAt
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CONFIGURATION-560
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-560
> Project: Commons Configuration
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.10
> Reporter: Martin Schlegel
>
> The XPATH expression used selects only one element, but getList and
> configurationsAT retrieves the same element twice ... or I am simply not
> getting the manual :-)
> Please see the simple example code attached below.
> Fedora Linux FC 17
> Java 1.7
> Apache Commons Components used:
> commons-collections-3.2.1.jar
> commons-configuration-1.10.jar
> commons-jxpath-1.3.jar
> commons-lang-2.6.jar
> commons-logging-1.1.3.jar
> XML document "sample.xml":
> ____________________________________________
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
> <config>
> <names>
> <firstname id="1"> Peter </firstname>
> <firstname id="2"> Michael </firstname>
> <firstname id="3"> Alex </firstname>
> </names>
> </config>
> ____________________________________________
> Java code:

> import java.util.List;
> import org.apache.commons.configuration.ConfigurationException;
> import org.apache.commons.configuration.HierarchicalConfiguration;
> import org.apache.commons.configuration.XMLConfiguration;

> try {
> XMLconfig = new XMLConfiguration("/tmp/sample.xml");
> XMLconfig.load();
> XMLconfig.setExpressionEngine(new
> XPathExpressionEngine());
>
> System.out.println("Retrieving firstname with id=2 via
> configurationsAt() ...");
> List<HierarchicalConfiguration> fields =
> XMLconfig.configurationsAt("names/firstname[@id='2']");
> for (HierarchicalConfiguration sub : fields) {
> System.out.println("=> names/firstname[@id='2']
> = " + sub.getString("."));
> }
> System.out.println("\nRetrieving firstname with id=2
