Hi,
i have a problem with xmltask 1.14 and xpath.
i want a nodelist as property.
the relevant xml section looks like that =
<module>
<modul.0>
<name>modul_A</name>
<label>020407_134553535</label>
<buildpossible>N</buildpossible>
</modul.0>
<modul.1>
<name>modul_B</name>
<label>to_be_build</label>
<buildpossible>J</buildpossible>
</modul.1>
</module>
with the xpath expression =
//module/*/name/text()
i expect to get the nodelist containing both modulnames
modul_A
modul_B
but with =
<xmltask source="props.xml">
<copy path="count(//module/*/name/text())" property="name.count"/>
<copy path="//module/*/name/text()" property="moduls.text"/>
</xmltask>
<echo>
$${name.count} = ${name.count}
$${moduls.text} = ${moduls.text}
</echo>
i get only =
[echo] ${name.count} = 2
[echo] ${moduls.text} = modul_A
Is that a bug or works as designed ?
i expected to get the nodelist with all matches
i believe it's because the property ${moduls.text} is set
at first match - which is modul_A - and the second match
get's not appended to that, because once set a (normal) property
is immutable in ant.
so i tried a buffer =
<target name="init">
<xmltask source="props.xml">
<copy path="count(//module/*/name/text())" property="name.count"/>
<copy path="//module/*/name/text()" buffer="moduls.text"
append="true"/>
<print buffer="moduls.text"/>
</xmltask>
that gives me =
[xmltask] { buffer 'moduls.text' output
[xmltask] modul_A
[xmltask] } buffer 'moduls.text' output
[xmltask] { buffer 'moduls.text' output
[xmltask] modul_B
[xmltask] } buffer 'moduls.text' output
so both modulnames are contained now, but how to get
that buffer in a property ?
Any ideas ?
Regards, Gilbert
