Great work! This has saved me alot of time and energy.

I have one suggestion though as your code not work correctly for the XML file that I am using. I have an XML file with the following data:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<WORKBENCH_PROJECT>
  <Projects>
    <Project
      UID="AJ95UX`/9_```#+&apos;=L0@!```?P```0" closed="false" active="true" approved="false"
      start="2006-01-09T08:00:00" openForTimeEntry="true" format="0" trackMode="0" finish="2006-01-09T17:00:00"
      priority="10" finishImposed="false" cpmType="0" name="Project1" startImposed="false"
      program="false">
      <Tasks>
        <Task
          UID="1_AJ5\([`/5_```#+&apos;=L0@!```?P```0" start="2006-01-09T08:00:00" proxy="false" critical="false"
          status="0" outlineLevel="1" finish="2006-01-09T17:00:00" summary="true" milestone="false"
          name="first" fixed="false" locked="false" key="false" percComp="0.0" unplanned="false"/>
        <Task
          UID="2_AJ?O93`?1_```#+&apos;=L0@!```?P```0" start="2006-01-09T08:00:00" proxy="false" critical="false"
          status="0" outlineLevel="2" finish="2006-01-09T17:00:00" summary="false" milestone="false"
          name="second" fixed="false" locked="false" key="false" percComp="0.0" unplanned="false"/>
      </Tasks>
    </Project>
  </Projects>
</WORKBENCH_PROJECT>

As there are two TASK nodes under the TASKS node, I could not find any way to access the TASK nodes with your code, so I modified one the UDFs in your code such that I can select which of the nodes I wish to access by index instead of name. I have posted the code below. If your code allows you to do this, then let me know the error of my ways.

Func _XMLGetAllAttrib($strXPath, ByRef $aName, ByRef $aValue, $strQry = "", $NodeIndex = 0)
    Local $objNodeList, $objQueryNodes, $objNode, $arrResponse[2][1], $i, $i1

    $objQueryNodes = $objDoc.documentElement.selectNodes ($strXPath & $strQry)
    While @error = 0 And $objQueryNodes.length > 0
        $objNodeList = $objQueryNodes.item ($NodeIndex).attributes

        _DebugWrite("Get all attrib " & $objNodeList.length)
        ReDim $arrResponse[2][$objNodeList.length + 1]
        ReDim $aName[$objNodeList.length]
        ReDim $aValue[$objNodeList.length]

        For $i = 0 To $objNodeList.length - 1
            $arrResponse[0][$i] = $objNodeList.item ($i).nodeName
            $arrResponse[1][$i] = $objNodeList.item ($i).Value
            $aName[$i] = $objNodeList.item ($i).nodeName
            $aValue[$i] = $objNodeList.item ($i).Value
        Next
        Return $arrResponse
    WEnd
;   _XMLError( "Error retrieving attributes for: " & $strXPath & @CRLF & $oMyError.windescription & @CRLF & $oMyError.scriptline)
    _XMLError( "Error retrieving attributes for: " & $strXPath & @CRLF)
    SetError(1)
    Return -1
;   EndIf
EndFunc  ;==>_XMLGetAllAttrib

Thank you again for you excellent work!

eltorro · January 10, 2006

Stumpii,

This will work with the code as is.

#include <_XMLDomWrapper.au3>
#include <Array.au3>

;_XMLFileOpen("C:\Program Files\AutoIt3\scripts\workbench_proj.xml")
$sXmlFile = FileOpenDialog("", @ProgramFilesDir & "\autoit", "XML (*.xml)", 1)
;ConsoleWrite($sXmlFile&@lf)
If @error Then
    MsgBox(4096, "File Open", "No file chosen")
    Exit
Else
    $oOXml = ""
    $oOXml = _XMLFileOpen ($sXmlFile)
    if @error then
            MsgBox(4096, "File Open Error", "Error Opening File.  Exiting program")
    Exit
    EndIf
EndIf

dim $aAttName[1],$aAttVal[1]

;get first node attribs  note: using optional query string
$ret = _XMLGetAllAttrib("/WORKBENCH_PROJECT/Projects/Project/Tasks/Task",$aAttName,$aAttVal,"[0]")
_ArrayDisplay($aAttName,"Task[0]"); show the names
_ArrayDisplay($aAttVal,"Task[0]"); show the values

dim $aAttName1[1],$aAttVa1l[1]
;get second node attribs note: XPath query string attached to path
;if one was to look at the code, the func just appends the optional query string to the path anyway.
$ret = _XMLGetAllAttrib("/WORKBENCH_PROJECT/Projects/Project/Tasks/Task[1]",$aAttName1,$aAttVal1)
_ArrayDisplay($aAttName1,"Task[1]")
_ArrayDisplay($aAttVal1,"Task[1]")

Edit: Does not work. Reuse of the same arrays allowed the value to show from the previous call.

;;get nodes based on a partial match. @ is for attribs.
;$ret = _XMLGetAllAttrib("/WORKBENCH_PROJECT/Projects/Project/Tasks/Task[@UID='2_AJ?*']",$aAttName,$aAttVal)
;_ArrayDisplay($aAttName,"Task[1]")
;_ArrayDisplay($aAttVal,"Task[1]")

give it a try.

You should also be able to use the following:

_XMLGetAllAttrib("/WORKBENCH_PROJECT/Projects/Project/Tasks/*[1]",$aAttName,$aAttVal)

Let me know. And thank you for posting.

I have added a couple of extra functs and I am going to re-work a couple of exisisting ones in the near future. The basic syntax and functionality should remain the same. I'll update the first post when I have completed it.

Stumpii · January 10, 2006

That's great. I will give it a try tonight.

Look forward to the new version!

eltorro · January 11, 2006

Update: working on a func that will return a node id or position based on the query.

supposedly

_XMLGetAllAttrib("/WORKBENCH_PROJECT/Projects/Project/Tasks/Task[starts-with(@UID,'2')]",$aAttName,$aAttVal)

should return true. But is doesn't.

Any Ideas?

eltorro · January 11, 2006

This works

_XMLGetAllAttrib("/WORKBENCH_PROJECT/Projects/Project/Tasks/Task[starts-with(@UID,2)]",$aAttName,$aAttVal)

Since is starts with a numeric value I guess the quotes around the 2 aren't necessary.

Stumpii · January 22, 2006

I didn't get around to checking the code you suggested as I am on a different program with a different problem :lmao:

I am writing a prog that creates RSS feeds and the root node needs to be <rss version="2.0">. I tried to make this with the _XMLSetAttrib function, but as it requires a path from the root, I cannot find a way to access the root itself. What I ended up hacking in the code is adding attribute variables in the _XMLCreateFile function. This then allows you to set the attributes while creating the file.

Could you add this feature, or show the correct way to do it? Thanks, Stumpii

Sorry for the late reply :">

As far as I can tell an attribute cannot contain a space.

Try this code:

#include <_XMLDomWrapper.au3>
_XMLCreateFile(@scriptdir&"\RootAttrib.xml","Root",True)
_XMLFileOpen(@scriptdir&"\RootAttrib.xml")
_XMLCreateRootAttrib("rss_version","2.0")
Exit

func _XMLCreateRootAttrib($aAttr,$aVal)
$objChild = $objDoc.documentElement.Attributes.setNamedItem($objDoc.createAttribute ($aAttr))
$objChild.Value = $aVal
$objDoc.Save(@scriptdir&"\RootAttrib.xml")
EndFunc

Sorry, didn't make myself clear. In <rss version="2.0">, rss is the root node name, version="2.0" is the attribute, so there is no problem with spaces. You code looks like it will do the trick in any case. Thanks!

Please let me know if you have any other troubles. I was hoping for more feedback so I could improve the functions.

Thanks. :lmao:

Try this.

I'm not real familiar with namespaces but the code below works with the xml in your post.

#Include <_XMLDomWrapper.au3>
_SetDebug(True);show debug messages via console write
$sXmlFile ="C:\Program Files\AutoIt3\scripts\voip.xml";******* put your path here.

    MsgBox(4096, "File Open", "No file chosen")

    $oOXml = _XMLFileOpen($sXmlFile)
EndIf


;See here: http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2004/02/25/qanda.html
;Seems that one must not use the name space URI or explicitly reference it
dim $aAttrName[1],$aAttrValue[1]
$ret=_XMLGetField('//vBase:ProvisionAndPort/vBase:VoIPInfo/vBase:Name/base:LastName')
_ArrayDisplay($ret,"/VoIPOrderRequest/VoIPOrderType/ProvisionAndPort/VoIPInfo/Name/LastName")
Redim $aAttrName[1],$aAttrValue[1]
$ret=_XMLGetField('//vBase:ProvisionAndPort/vBase:VoIPInfo/vBase:Address/base:StreetName')
_ArrayDisplay($ret,"/VoIPOrderRequest/VoIPOrderType/ProvisionAndPort/VoIPInfo/Address/StreetName")
Redim $aAttrName[1],$aAttrValue[1]
$ret  =_XMLGetAllAttrib("//vBase:ProvisionAndPort/vBase:VoIPInfo/vBase:Authorization/base:LOA[@successTimeStamp]",$aAttrName,$aAttrValue)
_ArrayDisplay($aAttrName,"/VoIPOrderRequest/VoIPOrderType/ProvisionAndPort/VoIPInfo/Authorization/LOA")
_ArrayDisplay($aAttrValue,"/VoIPOrderRequest/VoIPOrderType/ProvisionAndPort/VoIPInfo/Authorization/LOA")
Exit

Hope this helps.

Try googling for Xpath and namespaces for more info.

Yessssss....It works!!!!....I figured out how to do _XMLUPDATEFIELD()...Thanks once again for the quick reply.

DjDeep00 · February 7, 2006

I spoke to soon.... :lmao:

I am able to write to the fields perfectly where u see #####. Thanks to Steve. However how can I create the following if they dont exist in the xml?

1. <PortDirection><base:WirelineToWireline/></PortDirection> and <PortDirection><base:WirelineToWireless wirelessAcctNumber="" wirelessPIN="" wirelessSSN="111223333"/></PortDirection>

(Basically if its WirelineToWireline then leave it and if it is WirelineToWireless then add the items)

2. <PortType><F/></PortType> and <PortType><P partialPortBTN="1234561111"/></PortType>

(Basically if it is "F" then leave it and if it is "P" then add the field partialPortBTN)

Thanks in advance.

I am using the following XML:

Hi folks,

well i am kinda new and pretty much noob

And sometimes i think o:) :lmao: when i see some code,...

(i should really come to the point now.... sorry i am just a girl... i love eMotes :king: )

well... i have an XML-File and need a code which reads out some data of the XML-File and

put this data into variables (so i stupid one are able to work with it :"> )

Hi DjDeep,

The XML-File has the following content.... i am not sure if it's standard-xml,..

whatever... so it looks like:

------------------ START ------------------

</drinks>

------------------- END --------------------

only with more rows,...<drink id="4",...<drink id="5",..<drink id="6" and so on...

Thx,

Andrea

Try this code to get you started:

#include <Array.au3>
#Include <_XMLDomWrapper.au3>
_SetDebug(True);show debug messages via console write
$sXmlFile ="C:\Program Files\AutoIt3\scripts\drink.xml";******* put your path here.
If @error Then
    MsgBox(4096, "File Open", "No file chosen")
Else
    $oOXml = ""
    $oOXml = _XMLFileOpen($sXmlFile)
EndIf
If Not IsObj($oOXml) then
    MsgBox(0,"Error","No Xml file.")
    Exit
EndIf

Dim $aAttrName[1], $aAttrValue[1], $node
for $x= 1 to 3
$node = _XMLGetAllAttrib ("//drinks/*["&$x-1&"]",$aAttrName,$aAttrValue ); by index, show all attribs. xml indexes are 0 based.

_ArrayDisplay($aAttrName,"Attrib Names")
_ArrayDisplay($aAttrValue,"Attrib Value")

$node = _XMLGetAttrib("//drinks/*["&$x-1&"]","name",'[@id='&$x&']'); select node by index  and where id = x
MsgBox(0,"Name Where Id="&$x,$node)
if @error then ExitLoop
Next
Exit

Hope this helps.

I spoke to soon....

I am able to write to the fields perfectly where u see #####. Thanks to Steve. However how can I create the following if they dont exist in the xml?

1. <PortDirection><base:WirelineToWireline/></PortDirection> and <PortDirection><base:WirelineToWireless wirelessAcctNumber="" wirelessPIN="" wirelessSSN="111223333"/></PortDirection>
(Basically if its WirelineToWireline then leave it and if it is WirelineToWireless then add the items)

2. <PortType><F/></PortType> and <PortType><P partialPortBTN="1234561111"/></PortType>
(Basically if it is "F" then leave it and if it is "P" then add the field partialPortBTN)

Thanks in advance.

I am using the following XML:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<VoIPOrderRequest xmlns="eee" xmlns:xsi="eee" xmlns:base="eee" xmlns:voipBase="eee" xsi:schemaLocation="eee file:/home/bsmedley/src/engr/project/voipgw/src/voipgw/DefaultWebApp/dtd/VoIPOrderRequest_v4.xsd">

I think this is a limitation of the function. I hadn't anticipated namespaces as most of the stuff I work with doesn't use them. I changed the function below but haven't had a chance to test it.

;===============================================================================
; Function Name:    _XMLCreateChildNode
; Description:      Create a child node under the specified XPath Node.
; Parameters:       $path   Path from root
;                   $node   Node to add
; Syntax:           _XMLCreateChildNode($path,$node)
; Author(s):        Stephen Podhajecki <gehossafats@netmdc.com>
; Returns:          on error set error to 1 and returns -1
;===============================================================================
Func _XMLCreateChildNode($strXPath, $strNode, $strData = "",$strValue="")
    Local $objParent, $objChild, $objNodeList
    While @error = 0
        $objNodeList = $objDoc.documentElement.selectNodes ($strXPath)
        If IsObj($objNodeList) Then;.length <> 0 Then
           ;            For $objParent In $objNodeList.documentElement.selectNodes ($strXPath)
            For $objParent In $objNodeList
                $objChild = $objDoc.createNode (1, $strNode, $strValue)
                If $strData <> "" Then $objChild.text = $strData
                $objParent.appendChild ($objChild)
            Next
            $objDoc.Save ($strFile)
            $objParent = ""
            $objChild = ""
            Return
        Else
            ExitLoop
        EndIf
    WEnd
   ;    _XMLError( "Error creating child node: " & $strNode & @CRLF & $strXPath & " does not exist." & @CRLF & $oMyError.windescription)
    _XMLError( "Error creating child node: " & $strNode & @CRLF & $strXPath & " does not exist." & @CRLF)
    SetError(1)
    Return -1
EndFunc  ;==>_XMLCreateChildNode

I added an optional value where someone could enter the namespace.

Xmldoc.createNode("element","foo", "x-schema:fooSchema.xml")

so _XMLCreateChildNode(path,node,nodevalue,"x-schema:yourschema.xml")

Like I said I haven't had a chance to test it yet.

Pleae try it and see.
