similar to: Re: How can I parse encoded and serialized XML with REXML?

Not really a solution, but this has to be a classic example of PHP- programmer-bass-ackwardness. They''re already writing to an extensible serialization format (XML) but then just whack language-specific serialized data in instead. That''s right up there with the HTTP-over- SOAP-over-HTTP stuff I''ve seen floating around... --Matt Jones On Sep 24, 9:14 am, Andy

Why can it not find my object? What am i missing here? Here is my code: require ''rexml/document'' include REXML # classes to represent the objects and relationships in the xml file class Article attr_accessor :id, :post, :archive, :ntype, :head, :blurb, :body, :fblurb, :fimage, :att, :source, :copy, :brand end # the base parser class BaseXMLParser def initialize(filename)

I am using Ruby feedparser and when I try to parse this feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/Mobilecrunch I get an error: REXML::ParseException: Declarations can only occur in the doctype declaration. This feed does validate at feedvalidator.org. Any idea why it would raise an exception? Thanks, eduard -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

I am using Ruby Feedparser and keep running into situations when a feed is valid but feedparser throws an exception - REXML::ParseException: Declarations can only occur in the doctype declaration. The following feed does validate at feedvalidator.org (with a warning, but does validate): http://www.engadget.com/rss.xml However, when I run feedparser I get this error: <REXML::ParseException:

Has anyone seen the below error before? It appears to only occur when Puppet runs automatically (i.e. a "puppetd --test" doesn''t cause it). I have recently installed new Ruby rpms on the server and I''m guessing that I may have left out something when I built the RPMS (based on FC7 SRPM). > -----Original Message----- > From: report@melrhweb1.nmh-au

I see this on MacOS as well, so likely not platform dependent. A little more diddling to try to narrow it down: > unserialize(serialize(as.raw(1), NULL, version=2, ascii=TRUE)) [1] 30 > unserialize(serialize(list(as.raw(1)), NULL, version=2, ascii=TRUE)) [[1]] [1] 30 > unserialize(serialize(list(raw=as.raw(1)), NULL, version=2, ascii=TRUE)) Error in unserialize(serialize(list(raw =

This is an extension of my last post (problems with REXML) which has me looking to Nokogiri again. The reason I am not using Nokogiri is I can not seem to find a way to get CDATA out of a Nokogiri document. First, can you tell me if I am loading my document correctly, because when I call my_document.to_xml, I only get one line back: (rdb:1) test_file = Nokogiri::XML(mismo_xml_file)

Hi, I need to do some screen scraping and I''ve spent a couple hour getting htmltools and rexml do the right thing. Here''s the code: parser = HTMLTree::Parser.new(false, false) parser.feed(res.body) tree = parser.tree.html_node.as_rexml_document I works for one page, but for another I get "undefined method `add'' for #<HTMLTree::Element:0x37f9cc8>" in

I''ve been unserializing XML in PHP with the XML_Serializer class, and I''m wondering if anyone knows of such a class for Ruby. Nothing fancy, just perhaps a simple way of converting arbitrary XML to a Ruby object. Maybe this has been implemented somewhere already? Thanks, Raymond

I''m really new to Ruby on Rails, and I''m trying to read an XML file with REXML. No matter what I try, I am only getting the last result returned from my query. I should be getting 365 results. Here is the code: include REXML require ''rexml/document'' require ''rexml/xpath'' class MakeFootprintController < ApplicationController def index

Hi, Running: Ruby 1.8.7 p72, RSpec 1.1.12 and rcov 0.8.1.2.0, I get the following error message with $ rake spec:rcov -- /usr/local/ruby1.8.7//lib/ruby/1.8/rexml/formatters/pretty.rb:131:in `[]'': no implicit conversion from nil to integer (TypeError) from /usr/local/ruby1.8.7//lib/ruby/1.8/rexml/formatters/pretty.rb:131:in `wrap'' from

Hi all. I''m having trouble getting REXML to play nicely with an RSS feed that uses an encoding type called WINDOWS-1250. My application works when I comment out the references to the lines that utilize the REXML library. After visiting my app and being told that Rails could not start properly, my server.log file says: FastCGI: comm with server

I wrote a rexml script that parses rather big xml files (DOM parsing) and builds an object out of them. This is what it looks like after i parse the xml file and display the object: [#<Article:0xb79e7428 @brand="This is a story from ", @id=5337, @fblurb="burb", @ntype="news type here", @copy="Copyright \302\251 2006 ", @source="source",

Hi, I have an application that receives XML files, and then hands each one off to a backgroundrb worker to parse and store the info. Everything was working, until I needed to support a larger character set. So I added the following to the top of my XML files: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> Adding this worked fine when I tested it without using

We have some code that uses REXML, that when executed outside of Rails as a standalone rb file, runs fine. Once we run the code inside of Rails, it is dog slow. I know REXML is slow, buggy, sucks, etc., but my question is what cause the performance to degrade like that.

I have this field in my app where a logged in user can enter a comment, but when I click on the link bringing me to that page I get the following error message: undefined method `table_name'' for REXML::Comment:Class I am doing some encrypting that has an ''include REXML'' statement but when I comment that out I still get this error. Does anyone know where this is coming

Hi, While debugging a network server I'm developing I noticed something unusual - call to unserialize() resulted in an error about loading a namespace. I was a bit taken back by this - why should unserializing an object cause a namespace lookup? Are there any other side-effects of unserialize() that I should be cautious about? I've been digging through the R_Unserialize() call, I

I ran into an interesting error unserializing a file created with ascii=TRUE: R 3.5.1 (Windows or Linux): > unserialize(serialize(list(raw=as.raw(c(39,41))), NULL, version=2, ascii=TRUE)) Error in unserialize(serialize(list(raw = as.raw(c(39, 41))), NULL, version = 2, : ReadItem: unknown type 29, perhaps written by later version of R The same error happens when the

since http://nqxml.sourceforge.net/ also recommends that we switch to use rexml which is shipped with ruby? If there are plans for it but no developers, I might take it up as an exercise to learn the internals of wxruby-swig. Cheers, Phuah Yee Keat

Thanks for the report. Will look into it when I get a chance unless someone else gets there first. A simpler reprex: ## create and serialize a memmory-mapped file object filePath <- "x.dat" con <- file(filePath, "wrb") writeBin(rep(0.0,10),con) close(con) library(simplemmap) x <- mmap(filePath, "double") saveRDS(x, file = "x.Rds") ## in a
