Bug in XPathAPI.selectSingleNode ???

[ollirei]

Hi, I use following example XML file and want to extract child nodes by given 'paths'.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Element>
<Title ElementID="SL17681">title</Title>
<Element>
<Title ElementID="SL17682">title 2</Title>

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.InputStream;


import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder;
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory;


import org.apache.xpath.XPathAPI;
import org.w3c.dom.Document;
import org.w3c.dom.Element;


import junit.framework.TestCase;


public class XPathTest extends TestCase
{
public void testXPath() throws Exception
{
File xmlContent = new File("PublicContent.xml");// my file see above


DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();


dbf.setCoalescing(true);
dbf.setExpandEntityReferences(true);
dbf.setValidating(false);


DocumentBuilder db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();
Document doc;


InputStream is = new FileInputStream(xmlContent);


doc = db.parse(is);
is.close();


String[] xpaths = new String[] {"//*/*[2]/*[2]", "//*/*[2]/*[3]", "//*/*[2]/*[2]", "//*/*[2]/*[3]"};
for (String sElementPath : xpaths)
{
Element element = (Element) XPathAPI.selectSingleNode(doc.getDocumentElement(), sElementPath);
System.out.println("Path: " + sElementPath + "\tElement Name: " + element.getNodeName() + "\tHit: " + element.getAttribute("id"));
}
}
}

The result shows the following:

Path: //*/*[2]/*[2] Element Name: Para                  Hit: target022
Path: //*/*[2]/*[3] Element Name: Comment   Hit: WRONG023
Path: //*/*[2]/*[2] Element Name: Para                  Hit: target022
Path: //*/*[2]/*[3] Element Name: Comment   Hit: WRONG023

but I expected (or want to get) the following:

Path: //*/*[2]/*[2] Element Name: Para  Hit: target022
Path: //*/*[2]/*[3] Element Name: Para  Hit: target023
Path: //*/*[2]/*[2] Element Name: Para  Hit: target022
Path: //*/*[2]/*[3] Element Name: Para  Hit: target023

My question is, does the method selectSingleNode works correct, and how can I get the requestes result from the given paths??
THX!!
