xpath-2.0

I have the following simple xml: <root> <item> <d>2002-05-30T09:00:00</d> </item> <item> <d>2005-05-30T09:00:00</d> </item> <item> <d>2003-05-30T09:00:00</d> </item> </root> Now I want to find the minimum or maximum dateTime node using XPath. My solution at the moment is: /root/item[not(number(translate(./d, 'TZ:-', '.')) <= number(translate(following-sibling::item, 'TZ:-', '.')))][not(number(translate(./d, 'TZ:-', '.')) <= number(translate(preceding-sibling::item, 'TZ:-', '.')))][1]/d It works but is is ugly as hell and not very efficient. Basically it converts the dateTime to a number and

I am using ServiceMix 4.5.3 which includes Camel 2.10.7 and I am able to make XSLT 2.0 transformations with the Saxon library using the option endpoint like this: ... to("xslt:stylesheet.xsl?transformerFactoryClass=net.sf.saxon.TransformerFactoryImpl") ... However when I try to use the xpath function like this: private Namespaces ourNS = new Namespaces("myns", "urn:com:company:domain:namespace:myns/1"); // ... some code ... // Make a predicate to filter according a header : // The code attribute looks like: urn:phone:apple:iphone:4s Predicate isNotSamePhoneBrand = PredicateBuilder.isNotEqualTo

Given this piece of XML <dc:date>info:eu-repo/date/embargoEnd/2013-06-12</dc:date> <dc:date>2012-07-04</dc:date> I should need with XSL to output only the year of the string not starting with info:eu-repo . I'm trying this way, but it doesn't work. I'm wrong with the for-each ? <xsl:if test="not(starts-with('dc:date', 'info:eu-repo'))"> <xsl:for-each select="dc:date"> <publicationYear> <xsl:variable name="date" select="."/> <xsl:value-of select="substring($date, 0, 5)"/> </publicationYear> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:if> I guess you don't need ' in your start-with query, and you may want to iterate

I have a string which contains numbers. Is it feasible only with XPath that I get only numbers from it? For example: myString="abcd12ef34gh567", result: 1234567 Use : translate(., translate(.,'0123456789',''), '') This is the so called "double-translate" method , first proposed by @Michael Kay and can be used both in XPath 1.0 and in XPath 2.0. Of course, in XPath 2.0 using RegeX will generally be more efficient : replace('abc123def590xyz', '[^\d]', '') If you can guarantee that the non-digit characters will be only lower-case letters (like in your example), you could do the following in XPath

Using XPath, I would like to "Match whole word" (option for user, just like in VS search). It seems as though the functions contains and matches work similarly though matches allows for flags like i for case insensitivity. In other words, I am getting the same results with these two XPath queries: <pets> <dog name="Rupert" color="grey"/> <dog name="Ralph" color="brown"/> <cat name="Marvin the Cat" color="white"/> <cat name="Garfield the Cat" color="orange"/> <cat name="Cat" color="grey"/> <cat name="Fluffy" color="black"/> </pets> Matches XPath: //cat[descendant-or-self::*[@*[matches(.,'Cat')]

My problem is to quote the values obtained from get-property('cf') in <property expression="fn:concat(get-property('whereConcat'),' AND PA_INATO=', get-property('cf'))" name="whereConcat" scope="default" type="STRING"/> I have tried in different ways(character encoding: &apos; , character escape: \' ) but without success. the cleanest way is to define a constant: <property name="apos" scope="default" type="STRING" value="'"/> and then use it as follow: <property expression="fn:concat(get-property('whereConcat'),' AND PA_INATO=',get-property('apos'), get-property('cf'),get-property('apos'))"

I have enabled XPath 2.0 configuration synapse.xpath.dom.failover.enabled=true in synapse.properties but still unable to get string padding done. Is there any expression to achieve it? Edit : The length of a particular string needs to be 10 chars, if it is lesser than it, we have to pad it with the special character '%'. Eg., Input = ' WSO2 ', after padding it should be ' WSO2%%%%%% ' Thanks in advance har07 This can be achieved using XPath 1.0 like so, assuming that "WSO2" will be replaced by dynamic input string in the actual implementation : substring(concat('WSO2', '%%%%%%%%%%'), 1, 10)
