XML DOM wrapper (COM)

eltorro · February 8, 2006

Hi Steve,
Sorry for troubling u..but I am not able to create it:
<PortType><P partialPortBTN="1234561111"/></PortType>
Can u please post an example?

I messed with it for a while and there is a limitation to some of my function in that they aren't setup to take name space args.

Also, not knowing much about namespaces, I think that all the name spaces in the doc header need to be unique. I'll have to check on it to be sure.

see here and here.

The function to create a node with a namespace is obj.createNode(1,"Element","Namespace")

The function to create an attrib node with a namespace is obj.createAttribute("Name","Namespace")

The set the value of the attribute node just created and append it to the parent node.

In the case of the xml in your post all but one of your namespaces are something ="eee". You would use "eee" as your namespace arg. However, since there are several references to "eee" it may cause problems with MSXML. This I will have to check on. Also, I'll have to adjust the functs for namespaces. Namely the createRootNode(wAttrib), CreateChildNode(wAttrib) functions.

Right now I have to get ready to go. I won't be able to get to it until tommorrow sometime.

Steve

p.s.

I had updated a couple of other functions already, however, I am short on time at present.

I am looking at a newer version down the road as I see what other people are needing from the UDF.

Please post your xml, in order to provide u an example..

Hmmm....

I'm struggling to figure out a way to step through an xml file and pull values out of a number of sections that look somewhat like this. I'm trying to pull out the tests= values from each section, then my plan is to dump them into a textfile and add them up.

First, I'm just not sure how to step through the xml file and pull out just the "tests" value for each section.

Any help would be awesome!

<system-out />

<system-err />

</testsuite>

<system-out />

<system-err />

</testsuite>

Thanks!

Right on Steve, thanks for the reply.

Nice UI, but I'm not sure it's pulling out the right data for me.

What I'm trying to do is parse through the entire xml file and hit every <testsuite> section and just pull out the "tests=" value. If you see from the xml I posted, the first section has a "5", meaning 5 tests ran. The second <testsuite> has "3". There might be 20 or 50 more of these and I just want to extract that one value from each section.

any ideas?

thanks!

The function is there (at least in the version I have) but it is not mentioned in the header of the UDF. I think it was added later and the header was not updated.

So am I, the UDF header says: Dec 15, 2005

I have no idea where my version came from. But I have downloaded it from the forum, that I am sure about.

I am now searching the forum if I can find it again. If I have I will let you know where it is.

Dick

eltorro · February 15, 2006

I updated the first post with a link to the latest version. I put the two functions in it provided by Dickb. I removed most of the .documentElement references in the funcs. as it can cause some trouble if there is more than one root element. Also most of the functions that can use namespaces now have an optional parameter to do so. I'll update the func reference in the header shortly.

Any suggestions or additions are welcome and will be evaluated with an open mind.

Steve.

You guys are awesome!

I used the code above and used an _ArrayToString to pull out the piece of the array I was interested in. The piece of code allowed me to roll through the entire xml file and grab exactly what I needed. A simple math function on the end added up the column (separated by @CR) and I'm golden.

Thanks much for all the help!

I'm trying to get the following code imported from a file into an array so that it will store the following in a 2-D array:

state, servicerID, commission, allocation

I'm sorry. I've tried, and I just can't figure it out. Could someone with more intelligence than me please help?

Thanks in advance.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

Trying to create/read xml files the files create just fine, but won't read.

I was wondering if it has to do with the string going in is a multiline string, if so not sure how i'm going to deal with that.

Here's the Save and Load functions

Func SaveSnippet($s_Name, $code)
    Local $sFile = $snips_dir & '\' & $s_Name & '.xml'
    While @error = 0
        _XMLCreateFile ($sFile, "Snippet", True)
        _XMLFileOpen ($sFile)
        _XMLCreateRootChild ("Code", $code)
        Return
        ExitLoop
    WEnd
    
    MsgBox(4096, "Error", _XMLError ())
EndFunc ;==>SaveSnippet

Func LoadSnippet($s_Name)
    Local $sFile = $snips_dir & '\' & $s_Name & '.xml', $ret, $s_code
    ConsoleWrite($sFile & @LF)
    If FileExists($sFile) Then
        While @error = 0
            $ret = _XMLFileOpen ($sFile)
            $s_code = _XMLGetValue ("Code")
            Return $s_code
        WEnd
        MsgBox(4096, "Error", _XMLError ())
    EndIf
EndFunc ;==>LoadSnippet

and the error i get on the load

C:\Program Files\AutoIt3\SciTE\Snippets\Snips\Animate Display.xml
Error Retrieving: Code

No matching node(s)found!

Gary,

I haven't played with this UDF yet, but I believe you'll want to use a CDATA section for the snippet.

Yeah I was looking at that also, and tried _XMLCreateCDATA("Code", $code)

But it didn't write the cdata section, matter fact it messed up the file

file after CDATA create

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Snippet/>

GaryFrost · February 24, 2006

ok, real wierd I can get the example to work, so I figured I would create short test script to make sure nothing else was interfering with the save and load

same problem

test script

#include "Includes\_XMLDomWrapper.au3"

Global $snips_dir = @ScriptDir & "\Snips"
SaveSnippet("Animate_Display", "test")
LoadSnippet("Animate_Display")

Func SaveSnippet($s_Name, $code)
 Local $sFile = $snips_dir & '\' & $s_Name & '.xml', $ret
 While @error = 0
  _XMLCreateFile ($sFile, "Snippet", True)
  _XMLFileOpen ($sFile)
  _XMLCreateRootChild ("Code" , $code)
  Return
  ExitLoop
 WEnd
 
 MsgBox(4096, "Error", _XMLError ())
EndFunc  ;==>SaveSnippet

Func LoadSnippet($s_Name)
 Local $sFile = $snips_dir & '\' & $s_Name & '.xml', $ret, $s_code
 If FileExists($sFile) Then
  While @error = 0
   $ret = _XMLFileOpen ($sFile)
   If @error Then ExitLoop
   $s_code = _XMLGetValue ("Code")
   If @error Then ExitLoop
   Return $s_code
  WEnd
  MsgBox(4096, "Error", _XMLError ())
 EndIf
 Return ""
EndFunc  ;==>LoadSnippet

file

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Snippet><Code>test</Code></Snippet>

and the error i get on the load

Hi Gary,

This works for me.

global $snips_dir=@ScriptDir
$s_TName ="test.test"
$s_Tcode ="ldkfjlkdjfldjklkafjlakfjeoujocjva ojfoe 9ueruo "&@crlf&"adjkfhajklfhaiof haiueh ioauhlirufhaiouyh oliauh"
SaveSnippet($s_TName,$s_Tcode)
MsgBox(0,"Code",LoadSnippet($s_TName))
Exit

Func SaveSnippet($s_Name, $code)
    Local $sFile = $snips_dir & '\' & $s_Name & '.xml'
    While @error = 0
        _XMLCreateFile ($sFile, "Snippet", True)
        _XMLFileOpen ($sFile)
        _XMLCreateRootChild ("Code", $code)
        Return
        ExitLoop
    WEnd
    
    MsgBox(4096, "Error", _XMLError ())
EndFunc;==>SaveSnippet

Func LoadSnippet($s_Name)
    Local $sFile = $snips_dir & '\' & $s_Name & '.xml', $ret, $s_code
    ConsoleWrite($sFile & @LF)
    If FileExists($sFile) Then
        While @error = 0
            $ret = _XMLFileOpen ($sFile)
            $s_code = _XMLGetValue ("//Code")
            Return $s_code
        WEnd
        MsgBox(4096, "Error", _XMLError ())
    EndIf
EndFunc;==>LoadSnippet

This is the only change I made.

$s_code = _XMLGetValue ("//Code")

I think that It might be better to serialize or hex the string if it is really long as it would eliminate having to escape special characters & ' < >

#Include <String.au3>
global $snips_dir=@ScriptDir
$s_TName ="test.test"
$s_TSource = FileOpen("C:\Program Files\AutoIt3\include\Color.au3",0)
;$s_Tcode ="ldkfjlkdjfldjklkafjlakfjeoujocjva ojfoe 9ueruo "&@crlf&"adjkfhajklfhaiof haiueh ioauhlirufhaiouyh oliauh"
$s_TCode =_StringToHex(FileRead($s_TSource,512))

FileClose($s_TCode)

SaveSnippet($s_TName,$s_Tcode)

MsgBox(0,"Code",_HexToString(LoadSnippet($s_TName)))
Exit

Func SaveSnippet($s_Name, $code)
    Local $sFile = $snips_dir & '\' & $s_Name & '.xml'
    While @error = 0
        _XMLCreateFile ($sFile, "Snippet", True)
        _XMLFileOpen ($sFile)
        _XMLCreateRootChild ("hCode", $code)
        Return
        ExitLoop
    WEnd
    
    MsgBox(4096, "Error", _XMLError ())
EndFunc;==>SaveSnippet

Func LoadSnippet($s_Name)
    Local $sFile = $snips_dir & '\' & $s_Name & '.xml', $ret, $s_code
    ConsoleWrite($sFile & @LF)
    If FileExists($sFile) Then
        While @error = 0
            $ret = _XMLFileOpen ($sFile)
            $s_code = _XMLGetValue ("//hCode")
            Return $s_code
        WEnd
        MsgBox(4096, "Error", _XMLError ())
    EndIf
EndFunc;==>LoadSnippet

Steve,

Isn't that one of the main reasons for using CDATA so that you don't need to escape everything (since the CDATA is not parsed)?

Can you comment on the trouble using _XMLCreateCDATA? I reproduced the same outcome that Gary got trying to use it.

thanks,

Dale
