Hi Michael (and other participants),
Thanks so much for your recommendation.
I downloaded and am experimenting with JAXP. It indeed seems to be a
perfect match for my needs. It even comes with a very specific example,
"XPath Demo" that I intend to use as reference.
http://jaxp.dev.java.net/
However, I am concerned because that code only displays attributes:
/root/creator/@projectpath
I wonder whether I need to modify it (how?) in order to produce other
items, such as the all-important atomic text values?
TIA,
-Ramon

Hi,
JAXP has an XPath API. It is supported by Xalan and Java 5+. Here's a
reference [1] to the Javadocs.
Thanks.

Hello,
My current application runs on C++ and has many lines like this:
Variable["user"] = xpath_of("//root/creator/user");
Variable["project"] = xpath_of("//root/creator/project");
Variable["projectpath"] = xpath_of("//root/creator/projectpath");
Variable["title"] = xpath_of("//root/creator/title");
Variable["notes"] = xpath_of("//root/creator/notes");
The LHS is a Map, and the RHS is an XQilla function.

Everything is working fine, but it seems that I will have to port the
application to Java. I don't expect to have any problem going from
Xerces-C to Xerces-J.
I need a simple retrieval function, though. Xerces programming is more
or less equivalent to assembly language.
Can you folks recommend some XPath -or equivalent- implementation that
runs on Java?
TIA,
-Ramon
