-------------------------------------
Summary: Improve JXPath documentation
Key: JXPATH-174
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JXPATH-174
Project: Commons JXPath
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Michele Vivoda
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 1.4
I think a cause of issues with JXPath is in that the expected behavior in some
cases is not easy to specify if not undefined, this happens because XPath was
designed for XML and there is no specification for doing XPath on beans, maps
or even collections as JXPath is able to perform.
For example what is {{/}} ? what is {{/\*}} ? What is 'document order' ? What
is {{text()}} ? Some questions are answered
http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-jxpath/users-guide.html#Document_Order
but documentation is sparse.
I think a table that summarizes what JXPath does at the moment would be handy
and a way to improve user experience.
