Hi,

I'm attempting to build LXML for windows. Below are details on the linker errors I'm getting (the compile works fine). Anyone that can help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Here is my modified paths in the setup.py file:

STATIC_INCLUDE_DIRS = [
    "..\\libxml2\\include",
    "..\\libxslt\\include",
    "..\\zlib\\include",
    "..\\iconv\\include"
    ]

STATIC_LIBRARY_DIRS = [
    "..\\libxml2\\lib",
    "..\\libxslt\\lib",
    "..\\zlib\\lib",
    "..\\iconv\\lib",
    "C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\\VC\\lib"
    ]

STATIC_CFLAGS = []

I get the following output in the command line (note the first line is the line I typed in):

I'm somewhat more comfortable with fromstring() being do-what-I-mean (i.e., return a document only if a document is passed in), and document_fromstring() for what HTML() currently does (maybe with a little normalization), and fragment_fromstring() for something that *must* be a fragment (which I suppose should strip everything but body, if it is passed a full document, and I think I then even rename body to div in the current code). That is, most people are really comfortable working with HTML fragments, and this whole notion of a "valid HTML document" is less of an issue for most people. So when libxml2 turns their fragment into a valid HTML document it can be disconcerting. -- Ian Bicking : ianb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx : http://blog.ianbicking.org : Write code, do good : http://topp.openplans.org/careers

Sure, that works well, I think. What about the "fragments" function? I think "fragments_fromstring()" would fit nicely in there, and in the Python context, people would suspect it to return a list. > That is, most people are really comfortable working with HTML fragments, > and this whole notion of a "valid HTML document" is less of an issue for > most people. So when libxml2 turns their fragment into a valid HTML > document it can be disconcerting. That's why I'm not arguing your functions technically. I think they all make sense, I just want them to be less of a surprise for people who use them. Stefan

xpath on newly created elements

I can't make xpath work on elements that have been created using etree.Element when they have a namespace that doesn't use Clark notation. I have a test case: -- begins -- from lxml import etree print "lxml.etree: ", etree.LXML_VERSION print "libxml used: ", etree.LIBXML_VERSION print "libxml compiled: ", etree.LIBXML_COMPILED_VERSION print "libxslt used: ", etree.LIBXSLT_VERSION print "libxslt compiled: ", etree.LIBXSLT_COMPILED_VERSION nsmap=dict(test="http://test.com") e = [] e.append(etree.fromstring('<test:foo xmlns:test="http://test.com" />')) e.append(etree.Element("test:foo", nsmap=nsmap)) e.append(etree.Element("test:foo", {'xmlns:test': nsmap['test']})) e.append(etree.Element("{%(test)s}foo" % nsmap)) e.append(etree.Element("{%(test)s}foo" % nsmap, nsmap=nsmap)) for i, elem in enumerate(e): print i, elem.xpath("/test:foo", nsmap) -- ends -- I get this output if I run the above: lxml.etree: (1, 3, 2, 0) libxml used: (2, 6, 27) libxml compiled: (2, 6, 27) libxslt used: (1, 1, 20) libxslt compiled: (1, 1, 20) 0 [<Element {http://test.com}foo at b7a18374>] 1 [] 2 [] 3 [<Element {http://test.com}foo at b7a1848c>] 4 [<Element {http://test.com}foo at b7a184dc>] I would expect all 5 cases to match the root element, but cases 1 and 2 do not. It appears to be only for elements created using namespace prefixes - and yet these work perfectly well in all other respects. Is this a bug, or should elements not be created this way?
