uchuugaka / aquapath Goto Github PK

From time to time, I need to use XPath variables (e.g. to refer to the same
fairly long path several times in my query, or some other variable-based
reason). It would be nice if it were possible to use them in aquapath when
testing out my query, rather than get unreadable ones taking about twice
the size of the text box.

I checked out AquaPath from the svn repository and compiled it.  Although the 
version that's 
available as a binary download and this distribution both say version 1.1, the 
binary version 
highlights nodes that match XPath expressions, while the open source version 
doesn't.  Looking in XSLTBasedDHTMLPrettyPrinter.m, I see that the code to 
process matched nodes is commented out.  
I tried uncommenting it, and fooling around with it, but I don't know XSLT from 
a whole in the wall, 
and in addition the referenced TOD_matchedNode style doesn't appear to be 
present in the xsl file 
included with the project.  I assume that you finished this feature and 
included it in the binary 
version, but just hasn't gotten around to checking it into svn.  If there's 
anyway you could do this, I'd 
really appreciate it.

It's a great program, thanks *very* much for open sourcing it.  You're a saint.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Paste this XML into AquaPath:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<Document>
    <Node>
        <Node>
            <Node>
                <Text>text1</Text>
                <Text>text2</Text>
            </Node>
        </Node>
    </Node>
    <Node2>
        <Node2>
            <Node2>
                <Text>text3</Text>
                <Text>text4</Text>
            </Node2>
        </Node2>
    </Node2>
</Document>

2. Set the context node to /Document/Node/Node/Node
3. Set the XPath to .//text()
4. Evaluate and view the displayed output

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The text nodes with the content 'text1' and 'text2' should be highlighted, and 
nothing else.
The actual output has all 4 text nodes highlighted.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

AquaPath 1.1 on Max OS X 10.6.6

I submitted this bug to Apple in August. http://openradar.appspot.com/8339557
I have added a workaround in my code but it would be difficult to make it work 
in the general case, especially if using more than one // operator in a path.
