DbCorpusReader::contents() not working

[pebbe]

DbCorpusReader::contents() returns an empty string.

Simple file to test:

#include <AlpinoCorpus/CorpusReader.hh>
#include <AlpinoCorpus/CorpusReaderFactory.hh>
#include <iostream>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    if (argc != 2) {
        std::cerr << "Usage: " << argv[0] << " corpusfile.dact" << std::endl;
        return 1;
    }

    alpinocorpus::CorpusReader *r = alpinocorpus::CorpusReaderFactory::open(argv[1]);

    for (alpinocorpus::CorpusReader::EntryIterator i =
             r->query(alpinocorpus::CorpusReader::XPATH, "//node[@root=\"fiets\"]");
         i != r->end(); i++)
        std::cout << *i << "\t" << i.contents(*r) << std::endl;

    return 0;
}

This is not a bug. A node does not have a string value. Use e.g. //node[@root=\"fiets\"]/@word .
