[Vtd-xml-users] BUG: entity problem in toString()

[Mark S. <ma...@Sc...>]

Hello,

There is a bug in 1.8 and 1.9. When you call toString() on element text 
that has an entity it will fail. It works fine in 1.6. F.E.:

<root>
	<test>one &amp; two</test>
</root>

you can not get the index of test's TEXT and call toString().

Code snippet:
			vn.toElement(VTDNav.ROOT);
			if (vn == null)
				vn = vg.getNav();
			boolean result = vn.toElement(VTDNav.FC,"test");
			if (!result)
				return null;
			
			int index = vn.getText();
			if (index < 0)
				return null;
			return vn.toString(index); // fails.

com.ximpleware.NavException: Invalid entity char
         at com.ximpleware.VTDNav.getCharResolved(VTDNav.java:723)
         at com.ximpleware.VTDNav.toString(VTDNav.java:3499)
         at com.ximpleware.VTDNav.toString(VTDNav.java:3490)
	...

I just tried to upgrade to 1.8 and 1.9 today from 1.6 and ran into this. 
I'm starting to heavily rely on XPath and would like to use 1.9. The 
latest benchmarks look amazing.

Cheers.

Marc, that problem has now been fixed and checked into CVS...
and will be released in 2.0...
It is a bug in VTDNav's getCharResolved() method. (1.7 had
a rewrite of the method to make it modular, this bug was introduced
at that time frame).
Thanks for pointing that out...
Best,
Jimmy

Mark, all XPath changes since 1.6 are to make the implemenation faster
and more complete... 
Version 2.0 should come out around the beginning of the next monday...
VTD+XML is the big feature so we want to test everything and benchmark
it extensively...

Got it.
Btw, I haven't had a single problem with 1.6.

Cheers.
