Hello,
I have a problem getting a JDOM Element instance from a document that
specifies a namespace URI but no prefix. The data is similar to the
following (I have no control over the namespace):
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Root version="1.0" xmlns="Get - Data - Request.xsd">
<Data>
<Element>Some Value</Element>
</Data>
</Root>
Next, I have a String "xPathStr" whose value is the XPath to the Element
tag. A JDOM Element "root" refers to the Root tag document. The source
follows:
Namespace ns = root.getNamespace();
XPath xPath = new JDOMXPath( xPathStr );
xPath.addNamespace( ns.getPrefix(), ns.getURI() );
Object node = xPath.selectSingleNode( root );
System.out.println( "namespace -> " + ns.getPrefix() + ":" + ns.getURI() );
System.out.println( "node: " + node );
When run, the following is shown:
namespace -> :Get - Data - Request.xsd
node: null
By removing the "xmlns" attribute the following is shown:
namespace -> :
node: org.jdom.Element@HEXADDRESS
Displaying the node's text yielded "Some Value", as expected.
Anyone care to clarify what I'm doing wrong? Many thanks in advance!
Sincerely,
Dave Jarvis
