Re: [Simple-support] Error when all elements have the same name

I have fixed this in the SVN trunk, but have not released it. You can check it out, then it should work for you if you do 'ant build'.

Subject: [Simple-support] Error when all elements have the same name

I have some XML such as the following:

<rdr>
  <details>






    <detail>

        <name>version</name>
        <value>15.0</value>

    </detail>
    <detail>
        <name>resolution</name>

        <value>1080X1920</value>
    </detail>
    <detail>






        <name>browser</name>

        <value>Firefox</value>
    </detail>

  </details>
</rdr>

and I would like to map this to a bean so I have the following properties:

@Path("details/detail[1]")
@Element(name = "value")

private String version;

@Path("details/detail[2]")
@Element(name = "value")

private String resolution;

@Path("details/detail[4]")
@Element(name = "value")

private String browser;

This results in a null pointer exception because they all have the same element names.  InstantiatorBuilder.register(Label, Map) is putting a null as the value against any keys that are repeated.




What is the reasoning behind this?

I commented this out and my code runs fine, but UnionWithSameNamesAndDifferentPathsTest.testErrorInParametersExample failed because "Ambiguous parameter should cause a failure".  I can't understand what this test is trying to test!
