[issue16425] minidom replaceChild(new_child, old_child) removes new_child even if in another document

[Stefan Behnel]

Stefan Behnel  added the comment:

Since "new_child" is inserted at least into a new place, it needs to be removed 
from its old place as well, so that part seems correct. The problem description 
does not make it clear whether or not "old_child" is handled correctly, but 
looking at the code (and lacking a complete example that shows an error), I 
cannot see anything wrong there.

I'll close this ticket since it has been idle for years and it is unclear to me 
from the description whether it is an actual misbehaviour or a misunderstanding 
of correct behaviour.

Who is best placed to look at this as nobody is listed on the experts index?

[issue16425] minidom replaceChild(new_child, old_child) removes new_child even if in another document

[Martin Kugler]

New submission from Martin Kugler:

Calling doc.replaceChild(new_child, old_child) with new_child and old_child 
being similar nodes in two different documents results in new_child to be 
removed from its document instead of old_child being removed from doc.

Example:
new_child = get_element_x(doc_a)
old_child = get_element_x(doc_b)
parent = get_element_y(doc_b)
parent.replaceChild(new_child, old_child)

= new_child will be removed from doc_a. Instead old_child should be removed 
from doc_b.
