[jdom-interest] Error in parsing wsdl file using jdom

As Paul alludes, XPath is not like XML in so far as it doesn't support a default namespace (other than "no namespace"). You must set a namespace prefix in the XPath and map that prefix to the namespace you want.

	Aren't you missing namespace prefixes in your XPath expression ?
