XML problem

frankdynamic

Hello,

I want to import a XML file with a new XML-port. More then one of the element names has in the name the prefix : (example : <nl:Staffing>).


When I start the import with this code:

TESTFILE.OPEN('c:\TEST.XML');
TESTFILE.CREATEINSTREAM(TESTSTREAM);
XMLPORT.IMPORT(50002,TESTSTREAM);
TESTFILE.CLOSE

i got the error "The XML-parser returns the folowing fatal error:
Undeclared prefix.
Line number = 15 Cloumn number = 37.

if I delete the prefix : in the element names, the import is succesfull.

Does anyone know how to solve the problem with the prefix : in the element names

Thanks

Did anyone solve this? I am running into a bunch of stupid errors with this XMLport object this being one of them.

Is the XMLPort even vaiable as an option or should I just breakdown and learn how to use the DOM?

I'm having the same problem with an XML file containing a load of : (colons)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ENV:Envelopes>
<ENV:SenderID>PMK</ENV:SenderID>
<ENV:RecipientID>LXD</ENV:RecipientID>
<ENV:DocumentCount>1</ENV:DocumentCount>
</ENV:Envelopes>

The solution I've used is to remove the : before the import the XML using some File commands.
There is a good example here by jreynolds.

Works a treat.
