Hi all, I''ve been looking at the performance of my fb app and one glaring issue seems to be with the parsing speed of rexml in processing the results. Has anyone looked into porting the facebooker parser from rexml to libxml? If not, any reason I shouldn''t try? Thanks!

Hey everyone, I''ve been refactoring Mechanize for an 0.7.0 release. Basically I''m trying to clean the code up and there are a few features that I think are unnecessary, but I would like to ask people first. 1) REXML as a parser. I want to remove support for REXML. I don''t use it. Hpricot seems to do everything I need. 2) 1.8.2 thru 1.8.4 support

Was trying to understand more about the internals of wxruby-swig, where does the big chunk of XML comes from? I saw something similiar in Python, is that massaged out of there? The codes produced by extractxml.rb and wxclasses-2.4.2.xml is quite different from the original header files. Just for example the WxDialog class. OnXXX are non-virtual in WxWidgets, but virtual in wxruby-swig

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

Got a question hopefully someone can answer - I am working on functionality to match on certain nodes of a largish (65mb) xml file. I implemented this with REXML and was 2 minutes and counting before I killed the process. After this, I just opened the console and loaded the file into a string and did a regex search for my data -- the result was almost instantaneous. The question is, if I can get

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
