Jon, since you were using xmlbeans 2.1 before, presumably you have xbean.jar and jsr173_1.0_api.jar in your classpath, together with xbean_xpath.jar and saxon8.jar; now you need saxon8-dom.jar as well. If you have all the jars in your classpath and are experiencing your problem, then I don't know what else to tell you. It may be a problem with saxon rather than xmlbeans, but I know rather little about xpath and saxon and I can't say. - Wing Yew

I just upgraded to XmlBeans 2.2.0 from XmlBeans 2.1.0. My code that used the XmlObject.selectPath(String path) method no longer works. Is there an additional step I need to take to use selectPath in XmeBeans 2.2.0 with saxonb8.6.1? In the past I have simply built a jar of XmlBeans classes for our schema using the scomp utility and then included this in my projects. Our schema is quite large so I have not attached it. I will gladly do so if you are interested. here is the bit of code that is causing the trouble: -------------begin code-------------------- String xpath = "./[EMAIL PROTECTED]'" + id + "\']"; XmlObject[] objs = doc.getOvalDefinitions().getDefinitions().selectPath(xpath); -------------end code-------------------- Here is error I get: java.lang.RuntimeException: net.sf.saxon.trans.DynamicError: The context item for axis step descendant::element() is undefined at org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.xpath.saxon.XBeansXPath.selectNodes(XBeansXPat h.java:102) at org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.xpath.saxon.XBeansXPath.selectPath(XBeansXPath .java:108) at org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.store.Path$SaxonPathImpl$SaxonPathEngine.next( Path.java:496) at org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.store.Cursor._toSelection(Cursor.java:931) at org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.store.Cursor._toNextSelection(Cursor.java:920) at org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.store.Cursor._hasNextSelection(Cursor.java:912 ) at org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.store.Cursor.hasNextSelection(Cursor.java:2652 ) at org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.values.XmlObjectBase.selectPath(XmlObjectBase. java:433) at org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.values.XmlObjectBase.selectPath(XmlObjectBase. java:415) at org.mitre.oval.xmlapi.DefinitionApi.updateXml(DefinitionApi.java:565) Thanks for any help, Jon ============================================ Jon Baker INFOSEC Eng/Scientist, Sr. The MITRE Corporation [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________________________________ Notice: This email message, together with any attachments, may contain information of BEA Systems, Inc., its subsidiaries and affiliated entities, that may be confidential, proprietary, copyrighted and/or legally privileged, and is intended solely for the use of the individual or entity named in this message.
