parsing XPaths for node elements gives same element value

[johnhunsley]

Hi,

I have a problem which I think is something to do with my schema or how I get the Element value of a set of nodes.

My schema generates the wsdl and allows me to make a request for a set of values which are 1 or more:

<Addresses>
<Contact>
<Details>
<ContactName>fred</ContactName>
..............
</Details>
</Contact>
<Contact>
<Details>
<ContactName>john</ContactName>
..............
</Details>
</Contact>
</Addresses>

Everything works fine, my end point gets invoked as it should and I can create a Contact object with the values populated as expected. However all the contacts have the values of the first <Contact>.

I am calling selectNodes and iterating over the elements, then calling valueOf using the XPath object of those Element objects.

List contacts = this.contact.selectNodes(addressRequest);

 for(Object contactObj : contacts) {
            Element contactElement = (Element)contactObj;
            Contact contact = new Contact(); 
            contact.setName(this.contactName.valueOf(contactElement));
}

If I make the request with more than one <Contact> the loop iterates over all those objects but each Contact object has the values from the first <Contact>

contactName is the XPath declaration in the end point constructor which has the schema name space added, like this:

contactName = XPath.newInstance("//myTNS:ContactName");
contactName.addNamespace(namespace)

Can anyone see why each time I call contactName.valueOf on each <Contact> Element I only get the first values in the set?

Many thanks,

John

Hi,

I have returned to this problem but still can't solve it.

Has anyone else encountered the same thing?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Many thanks

John.
