Per the JIRA triage meeting on Oct 16, 2005, Brian M. agreed to look at this one. > Descendant axis sometimes includes the context node > --------------------------------------------------- > > Key: XALANJ-2319 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANJ-2319 > Project: XalanJ2 > Issue Type: Bug > Components: parse-or-compile > Affects Versions: 2.7 > Reporter: Igor Peshansky > Assigned To: Brian Minchau > > The following code: > import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory; > import javax.xml.xpath.XPath; > import javax.xml.xpath.XPathConstants; > import javax.xml.xpath.XPathFactory; > import org.w3c.dom.DOMImplementation; > import org.w3c.dom.Document; > import org.w3c.dom.Element; > public class Y { > public static void main(String[] stringArr) throws Exception { > DOMImplementation domImpl = > DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance().newDocumentBuilder().getDOMImplementation(); > Document document = domImpl.createDocument(null, "foo", null); > Element element = document.getDocumentElement(); > element.appendChild(document.createElement("bar")); > XPath xpath = XPathFactory.newInstance().newXPath(); > String result = (String) > xpath.evaluate("name(./descendant::*)", element, XPathConstants.STRING); > System.out.println(result); > } > } > prints "foo", whereas it should have printed "bar". Changing the XPath > expression from "name(./descendant::*)" to > "name(self::node()/./descendant::*)" makes Xalan produce the correct result, > but "name(self::node()/descendant::*)" still exhibits the incorrect behavior. > A bit of debugging shows that when DescendantIterator is created, the > constructor sets the axis to DESCENDANTORSELF, because the first step is a > FROM_SELF (even though the subsequent steps are not supposed to return the > self node). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
