XML DOM wrapper (COM)

cartman380 · June 20, 2008

I'm sure you get this all the time but I just wanted to say these functions are amazing, and I love how easy it makes xml parsing. Thanks for your great work

Hi,

It's probably working find, but i don't understand everything...

But I'm very interesting for a project that must used custom XML file.

Can someone give use a little exemple for every Function of XMLDOMWrapper, with discriptions...

Thank you by advance,

Thomas.

This should get you started.

@eltorro - There are empty lines left over after calling _XMLDeleteNode, can you take a look at that?

Hi,

I'm currently experimenting with your great code.

I'm switching it to MustDecleareVars

Line 1400 must be --> $bSuccess = False

Line 1329 should be --> Local $nodepath, $ns, $objParent

Mega

Edit: An a question : how to create this _XMLCreateFile($xml_filename, "xs:schema", True)

with a : or a blank???

dgriffio · June 27, 2008

hello,

it works great with a basis xml file, but i cant get it to work with what i think is a complicated one.

the xml looks as follows:

<p2v uninstallAgentOnSuccess="0" version="3.2" xmlns=""
 xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="" xsi:type="P2VJob">

<jobState errorCode="0" id="23" startTime="2008-Jun-26 13:36:00" state="succeeded" stopTime="2008-Jun-26 13:57:48" totalPercentComplete="100" type="import">
</jobState>
</p2v>

i cant get the "state" out.

i tried that using:

#include <_XMLMdiDOM.au3>
#include <Array.au3>

Local $sFile = "test.xml"
If FileExists($sFile) Then
    $ret = _XMLFileOpen($sFile)
    If $ret = 0 Then Exit

    $state = _XMLGetValue("p2v/jobState/state")

    MsgBox(4096, "test", $state[1])
Else
    MsgBox(4096, "Error", _XMLError())
EndIf

but since its a strange structure i cant get the state out this way.

anyone have a hint for me?

dgriffio · June 27, 2008

I found out its the xsi:type="P2VJob" giving the trouble. without it it works... anyone knows what this does and why it gives the trouble?

i really need to read the state with xsi:type="P2VJob" present...

i also changed my code:

#include <_XMLMdiDOM.au3>
#include <Array.au3>

Local $sFile = "note.xml"
If FileExists($sFile) Then
    $ret = _XMLFileOpen($sFile)
    If $ret = 0 Then Exit

    $state = _XMLGetAttrib("p2v/jobState", "state")

    MsgBox(4096, "test", $state)
Else
    MsgBox(4096, "Error", _XMLError())
EndIf

weaponx · June 27, 2008

This works for me:

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

Local $sFile = "test.xml"
If FileExists($sFile) Then
    $ret = _XMLFileOpen($sFile)
    If $ret = 0 Then Exit

    $state = _XMLGetAttrib("//p2v/jobState", "state")

    MsgBox(4096, "test", $state)
Else
    MsgBox(4096, "Error", _XMLError())
EndIf

DrJeseuss · July 18, 2008

I'm trying to deal with an XML file that is used to store data for a flash gauge. The flash will read the XML to obtain the values needed to display a needle position. When the flash is running it opens the XML for values, updates the needle position, then checks the XML again and so on. In autoit, I'm writing the XML to file, then using _FileWriteToLine I am updating only the necessary line to update the needle position. The rest stays the same. The problem is speed. By the time the file is opened, read to array, updated and rewritten, and closed, the flash file has tried to open it and been denied. This causes a delay before it will retry.

So, I'm wondering if the XML wrapper would be potentially faster at getting the file updated to prevent these file in use issues. If so, (I'm not too good with the XML stuff yet) how would I use this wrapper to modify a few values in the file? Below is the XML. In particular, I'm needing to change the values Start='110' and Span='0'. There are several instances of the rotate line, each being for a different gauge in the cluster, but I'm not sure how to identify, then change them.

CODE

I assume there's a way to go to a line by some internal reference (i.e. line 17) and change certain values (attribs ?) on that line.

CODE

<gauge>

</rotate>

</rotate>

</rotate>

<text x='400' y='0' width='300' size='49' color='ffffff' alpha='15' align='left' rotation='90'>dashboard</text>

</gauge>

For a better understanding of the gauges, please see this link. The XML shown is for the example on the right.

Any help that can be offered would be a huge help. Thanks!

weaponx · July 21, 2008

XML doesn't work by using line numbers as a reference. It must be treated like a database. Here I show you two ways of identifying the "rotate" node, one by attribute and one by index.

Just be careful if you are using SetAttrib matching by attribute, because the first call to it will change the query for successive calls.

#include "..\_XMLDomWrapper.au3"

Local $sFile = "test.xml"
If FileExists($sFile) Then
    $ret = _XMLFileOpen($sFile)
    If $ret = 0 Then Exit
    
    Dim $aKeys[1], $aValues[1]

    ;Get node matching multiple attributes
    _XMLGetAllAttrib ("/gauge/rotate[@x='240' and @y='160']", $aKeys, $aValues)
    For $X = 0 to Ubound($aKeys)-1
        ConsoleWrite("["&$X&"]: " & $aKeys[$X] & " = " & $aValues[$X] & @CRLF)
    Next
    
    ConsoleWrite(@CRLF)
    
    ;Get node by index
    _XMLGetAllAttrib ("/gauge/rotate[1]", $aKeys, $aValues)
    For $X = 0 to Ubound($aKeys)-1
        ConsoleWrite("["&$X&"]: " & $aKeys[$X] & " = " & $aValues[$X] & @CRLF)
    Next
    
    _XMLSetAttrib("/gauge/rotate[1]","start","NEW VALUE")
    _XMLSetAttrib("/gauge/rotate[1]","span","NEW VALUE")
Else
    MsgBox(4096, "Error", _XMLError())
EndIf

WeaponX,

Let me see if I understand your second example to find a node by index. It searches the XML for any child called rotate, and assigns each an index number. So the first rotate found would be 1, the second rotate found would be 2 and so on. Then I can change attributes using the number (index) found for each occurance. So if I need to change the second rotate found, I'd use:

CODE

_XMLSetAttrib("/gauge/rotate[2]","span","NEW VALUE")

Do I understand this correctly? Thanks for the help on this!

Edited July 22, 2008 by DrJeseuss

weaponx · July 22, 2008

By nature, each element has an index. If you have mixed node types you have more options:

<xml>
 <text>1</text>
 <text>2</text>
 <text>3</text>
 <line>1</line>
 <line>2</line>
 <line>3</line>
 <rotate>1</rotate>
 <rotate>2</rotate>
 <rotate>3</rotate>
 </xml>

You can select an absolute node like this:

//*[4]

-or-

/xml/*[4]

Giving you <line>1</line>.

Or you can use:

//line[1]

-or-

/xml/line[1]

This is likely a simple question. After calling _XMLfileOpen it appears any calls after that (_XMLgetAttrib etc.) don't specify an XML, so must use the open XML from previous. Is there a way to have 2 XML's open or must one be used, then the other opened and used? (such as: $file1 = _XMLfileOpen($sFile1) $file2 = _XMLfileOpen($sFile2) then calling each seperately as _XMLgetAttrib($file1,"//*[4] and/or _XMLgetAttrib($file2,"//*[4]) If not, this would be a nice add.

Also, what's the proper way to stop using an XML? After using _XMLfileOpen is there a correct way to stop using a file? Nowhere do I see _XMLfileClose. Does the XML stay open until a new XML is opened or the script ends?

Lastly, I'm familiar with using _XMLgetAttrib("//Word[4]","Title") to get the value of attribute Title from the 4th Word child in the XML. I'm also familiar with using _XMLGetAttrib("//Word[@Type='Bin' and @Size=4]","Title") to get the value of attribute Title from the Word child matching Type and Size. Is there a way to get the best of both worlds? i.e. (My example doesn't work, I've tried) _XMLGetAttrib("//Word[@Type='Bin' and 4]","Title") I'm hoping to get the 4th child matching Type='Bin', not the 4th child in the XML, nor all matching Type='Bin'. Ideas?
