I am trying to perform a normal query into an XML document where something has been declared about the default namespace. If the xmlns="..." part of the data is removed then this test succeeds. What needs to change in my XPath query //lastName or XML::LibXML parser object so that this query will succeed? use Test::More tests => 2;
use XML::LibXML ();
{
my $xml = <<'XML';
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
<sdnList>
<sdnEntry>
<lastName>Hello world!</lastName>
</sdnEntry>
</sdnList>
XML
my $parser = XML::LibXML->new;
my $doc = $parser->parse_string($xml);
my $result = $doc->findvalue('//lastName');
is( $result, "Hello world!", "No namespace" );
}
{
my $xml = <<'XML';
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
<sdnList xmlns="http://tempuri.org/sdnList.xsd">
<sdnEntry>
<lastName>Hello world!</lastName>
</sdnEntry>
</sdnList>
XML
my $parser = XML::LibXML->new;
my $doc = $parser->parse_string($xml);
my $result = $doc->findvalue('//lastName');
is( $result, "Hello world!", "Namespace" );
}
Results 1..2
ok 1 - No namespace
not ok 2 - Namespace
# Failed test 'Namespace'
# in sdl2.pl at line 30.
# got: ''
# expected: 'Hello world!'
# Looks like you failed 1 test of 2.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
