Hi, I use the xmllint --shell print.xml (attached file) and the following is the result. The incorrect behavior happens after I do a cd .. to go back to the root directory and try to cd into ADDRESSBOOK[2] which was the result I got by doing pwd. As you can see below that it tells me that the node does not exist but according to pwd it does exist. Is this the correct behavior? I traced it to function xmlGetNodePath which is used by the pwd command. Is it possible that this function might be producing wrong results?
Yes it's a bug, xmlGetNodePath() when computing the index forget to check that a node is an element before checking for the name, and in this case there is a preceeding sibling PI with the same name, hence the error. I knew about it but never went to fix it, thanks for raising it again :-) paphio:~/XML -> xmllint --shell print.xml / > ls ?an 1 ADDRESSBOOK --- 17 ADDRESSBOOK / > / > / > pwd Unknown command / / > cd / / > cd /ADDRESSBOOK ADDRESSBOOK > exit paphio:~/XML -> patch enclosed, Daniel -- Daniel Veillard | Red Hat Network https://rhn.redhat.com/ veillard redhat com | libxml GNOME XML XSLT toolkit http://xmlsoft.org/ http://veillard.com/ | Rpmfind RPM search engine http://rpmfind.net/
