[Xmltask-users] Replace text in an xml document containing namespace

[Abram A. <aa...@cf...>]

I am trying to do a simple replace in an xml document where the root node
has a namespace.  Here's my latest attempt:

<xmltask preservetype="true" report="true"
source="${DEPLOY_DIR}/installer/update.xml"
dest="${DEPLOY_DIR}/installer/update.xml">
       <replace path="//*[local-name()='update']/exe/version/text()"
withXML="1.0.${build.number}"/>
</xmltask>

The XML document looks like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<update xmlns="http://ns.riaspace.com/air/framework/update/description/1.1">
   <exe>
      <version>1.0.1</version>
   </exe>
</update>

For the life of me I cannot get it to replace the <version> text with the
text I supply.  I've tried all sorts of xPath, but it simply does not find
it.  Now, if I remove the namespace and use this as the path:

/update/exe/version/text()

It works fine.  Problem is the xml file needs to have the namespace.  Any
ideas?
