[Xmlunit-general] XPath/Namespace API changed

[Stefan B. <bo...@ap...>]

Hi all,

after looking through James' patch for XML Schema validation I
realized that he was doing a few things differently from my namespace
patch for XPath.  Namely he was adding a property to the XMLUnit class
while I overloaded tons of assertion methods in both XMLAssert and
XMLTestCase.  James' approach is far more in line with the XMLUnit 1.0
codebase than mine.

I can't say that I like all the statics in XMLUnit too much but I
figured that a consistent API (or "conceptual integrity" if you want
to call it that) is more important than my personal preferences here.

Accordingly I've removed all the overloads and introduced a static
xpathNamespaceContext property (with getters and setters) to XMLUnit.

Stefan
