XOM API for Processing XML with Java

Elliotte Harold scripsit:

> count(//*) | //*

Thus spake XPath section 3.4:

# An _or_ expression is evaluated by evaluating each operand and
# converting its value to a boolean as if by a call to the _boolean_
# function. The result is true if either value is true and false
# otherwise. The right operand is not evaluated if the left operand
# evaluates to true.

So the value of this should be Boolean.TRUE.

In might the Feanorians / that swore the unforgotten oath
brought war into Arvernien / with burning and with broken troth.
and Elwing from her fastness dim / then cast her in the waters wide,
but like a mew was swiftly borne, / uplifted o'er the roaring tide.
