Expression Editor

[udo_martens]

Hi Experts,

the Expression Editor (for example ccBPM / switch / Condition Editor / Expression Editor)does not work like i expect: if i have an message like

<rootElement xmlns:p1="myNamespace">
<myElement>123</myElement>
</rootElement>

i can click at <i>myElement</i> and the in the field "X-Path Expression" will be filled:

/p1:rootElement/myElement

Nevertheless this is not working!? If i put the path manually like

//myElement

it works.

Does anybody know, why the clicked path does not work?

Hi,

Have you removed the multiline check. It's checked by default.

Hi Udo,

Take a look in you message type if the XML-Namespace ist the same than the Object Namespace.

Make sure that the namespace is declared correctly in the line beyond the xpath expression line.

Which Sp level do you use?

Hi Stefan,

the namespace is correct. It appears automaticly when you click on the field. We r using XI 7.0 SP 8. Did you ever had sucess with that editor by clicking? I knew that strange behavior for years but for me it was satiesfieing enough to use a manually entry (with a double slash). My current customer likes to force me onto defensive with that kind of questions

Udo
