//text() does not work for CData sections
-----------------------------------------
Key: XALANJ-2452
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANJ-2452
Project: XalanJ2
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: No security risk; visible to anyone (Ordinary problems in
Xalan projects. Anybody can view the issue.)
Components: XPath
Affects Versions: 2.7.1
Environment: Win xp
Reporter: Michele Vivoda
Given the document
<root><![CDATA[a]]></root>
I found out that //text() returns an empty string.
Since when the document is <root>a</root> the same xpath returns correctly "a",
it should be a problem somehow related to CData.
The problem appears also if the cdata is more nested
The problem does not appear when there is at least one parent specified in the
xpath for/before text() so like in:
/*/text()
//*/text()
/*//text()
Also these other xpaths work as expected
//self::text()
ancestor-or-self::text()
descendant-or-self::node()/self::text()
if I am right in thinking that these last expression are equivalent to //text()
maybe it could be a problem of the xpath expression parser ? just trying..
The quick fix is to use a dom document obtained from a DocumentBuilderFactory
configured with coalescing = true.
