XPath API's does not recognize or find an element added in DOM object runtime.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: XALANJ-2296
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANJ-2296
Project: XalanJ2
Type: Bug
Components: XPath, DTM, XPath-API, parse-or-compile
Versions: 2.4
Environment: any [XP, Linux... never tried on Solaris, But I think it might be
true for solaris also]
Reporter: Ravindra Nandal
I apologize for if I am making any mistake creating this bug...
Here it goes...
In our program we read an XML document from file and parse(DOM Parser) against
the DTD. We get the DOM Document object using parser to modify the document, in
this case we are adding new element at particular place in the document, we are
using XPath to search through the position where new element to be inserted or
added to. In the same program in another place it tries to find the new element
using XPath expression against the same DOM document that has been modified
above by XPath Evaluator API's, it does not find but if you look in the
document object the new element is there. I can find the new element by normal
DOM API like getElementByTagName() method... More over I can traverse through
the new element by executing an XPath expression to an element that is around
the new element. Again if I convert the modified DOM document into text string
and parse again through parser to get the new DOM Document object... it works
fine with new DOM document object...
I am not sure if I am able to explain everything here... Please drop me an
e-mail if you have any questions. I also not sure if this is a bug or there is
way to around this problem.
Please respond in either case.
Thanks,
- Ravi
