Help with xpath

Hi guys,

I need some help with xPath. I need the path (1a36b8dc5faa7a4d86b8830b4eacd6ab) text when component = "\TREE\Acme\Sistema\IDM\DriverSet01\IDM2AD"


    <instance class-name="User" qualified-src-dn="O=Acme\OU=Usuarios\OU=Funcionarios\CN=XXXXX" src-dn="\TREE\Acme\Usuarios\Funcionarios\XXXXX" src-entry-id="219290">
      <attr attr-name="DirXML-Associations">
        <value timestamp="1302221030#221" type="structured">
          <component name="nameSpace">1</component>
          <component name="volume">\TREE\Acme\Sistema\IDM\DriverSet01\SomeDriver</component>
          <component name="path">01093037</component>
        </value>
        <value timestamp="1302260346#93" type="structured">
          <component name="nameSpace">1</component>
          <component name="volume">\TREE\Acme\Sistema\IDM\DriverSet01\Entitlement01</component>
          <component name="path">{BEFB30D6-A4A1-435A-D492-D630FBBEA1A4}</component>
        </value>
        <value timestamp="1559849566#65" type="structured">
          <component name="nameSpace">1</component>
          <component name="volume">\TREE\Acme\Sistema\IDM\DriverSet01\AnotherDriver</component>
          <component name="path">\TREE\Acme\Usuarios\Funcionarios\XXXXX</component>
        </value>
        <value timestamp="1559849566#60" type="structured">
          <component name="nameSpace">1</component>
          <component name="volume">\TREE\Acme\Sistema\IDM\DriverSet01\IDM2AD</component>
          <component name="path">1a36b8dc5faa7a4d86b8830b4eacd6ab</component>
        </value>
      </attr>
    </instance>


This instance is inside a variable. I tried $variable/value[component[@name='volume']/text()='\TREE\Acme\Sistema\IDM\DriverSet01\IDM2AD']/component[@name='path'] and others different forms, but I can't either get the value node. Someone can help me?

It matters if you used Source/Dest Attr to get the value into the
variable, or did you use a Query token?

Hi Geoffrey,

I'm using source attribute, but will follow the link you posted.

Thank you

I often find it helpful to trace nodeset variables in their serialized form while developing with something like this:

 

<do-set-local-variable name="trace" scope="policy">
    <arg-string>
        <token-xml-serialize>
            <token-local-variable name="associations"/>
        </token-xml-serialize>
    </arg-string>
</do-set-local-variable>

 

This will result in the following trace:

 

Driver :      Action: do-set-local-variable("associations",scope="policy",arg-node-set(token-src-attr("DirXML-Associations"))).
Driver :        arg-node-set(token-src-attr("DirXML-Associations"))
Driver :          token-src-attr("DirXML-Associations")

...and reveal that your variable has a set of value nodes as it's contents, it's not an instance node as you would probably expect. Therefore you'd need to treat the variable as the value node:

 

Driver :      Action: do-set-local-variable("path",scope="policy",token-xpath("$associations[component[@name='volume' and text()='\TREE\Acme\Sistema\IDM\DriverSet01\IDM2AD']]/component[@name='path']")).
Driver :        arg-string(token-xpath("$associations[component[@name='volume' and text()='\TREE\Acme\Sistema\IDM\DriverSet01\IDM2AD']]/component[@name='path']"))
Driver :          token-xpath("$associations[component[@name='volume' and text()='\TREE\Acme\Sistema\IDM\DriverSet01\IDM2AD']]/component[@name='path']")
Driver :            Token Value: "1a36b8dc5faa7a4d86b8830b4eacd6ab".
Driver :          Arg Value: "1a36b8dc5faa7a4d86b8830b4eacd6ab".

 

If you use token query, though, the variable contains one ore more instance nodes, in which case you'd have to use something like $var//value[component[...
