Hello everyone, I am probably not the only one having trouble with this package but here goes. I want to install XML on Ubuntu.

Hi, I hope someone has seen this problem before. I am trying to install the XML package from http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/XML_0.95-6.tar.gz.

Hi, I am having problems installing the XML package with R-devel on freebsd. If I simply do install.packages("XML"), it says that the parser.h file is not found. After reading the INSTALL file, I have set setenv XML_CONFIG /usr/local/bin/xml2-config setenv LIBXML_LIBDIR -L/usr/local/lib setenv LIBXML_INCDIR -I/usr/local/include/libxml2/libxml and install.packages("XML")

Hi list, It may be a FAQ, but I searched the web and Uni of Newcastle Maths and Stats and R mailing list archive on this issue but was unable to find a solution. I would appreciate any pointer to help me solving this. I am using R version 2.10.0 (2009-10-26) on linux mandriva 2010.0 I tried to install the XML_2.6-0.tar.gz package both with install.packages('XML', dep=T) from within R

[The package XML is labelled ORPHANED and a comment says the CRAN team maintains it. I am not sure what address to send this to.] In package XML version 3.98.1.11, RUtils.c registers the C function RS_XML_xmlNodeChildrenReferences twice. The registration information is identical but this could cause maintenance problems if the routine were changed. % grep -n RS_XML_xmlNodeChildrenReferences

Dear All, I have a question regarding best practise in setting up a XML parser within R. Because I have files with more than 100 MB and I'm only interested in some values I think a SAX-like parser using xmlEventParse() will be the best solution. Unfortunately the values I'm looking for, to construct some higher "mass spectrum", are distributed over different lines: as

Dear Prof. Lang - I am trying to install the XML library on a 64-bit SUSE linux system (version info below) running 2.4.1. I have gcc version 3.3.3, and libxml2 version 2.6.7. I know this is not current, but I'm on a machine used and administered by others, and updating libxml2 would require updating libc, and things get pretty complicated from there. Trying to install through R (1.9-0),

Dear list, Sorry for bothering you with a pure odfSweave question, but I just ran into a problem that I cannot find the cause of. Anyonse seen this before? This file "used to work", but not anymore.

Could someone provide a link or examples of parsing XML document in R? Few specific questions below: For instance I can retrieve specific nodes using this: node <- xpathApply(xml, "//" %+% xtag, xmlValue) 1) I want to be able to retrieve parent node for this node, how can I do this? getParentNode() does not seem to cut it. 2) How can I retrieve children nodes for a particular

Hello everyone, I'm trying to parse a very large XML file using SAX with the XML package (i.e., mainly the xmlEventParsing function). This function takes as an argument a list of other functions (handlers) that will be called to handle particular xml nodes. If when I use Rprof(), all the handler functions are lumped together under the <anonymous> label, and I get something like this:

Hi all, thanks to the people who replied to my question! I finally solved the issue by writing own handlers and using xmlEventParse - which leads to the following problem which is so odd that its probably a bug. I use several special charachter in my XML-File, e.g. umlauts or ? or ? - but no matter how I encode my XML (UTF or ISO) or I escape these characters xmlEventParse always stops

Hi, I was trying to install XML package in a linux (dabian) machine and got the following error message. I am not sure whether there is any error in my linux installion.

Dear all, for my diploma thesis I have to import huge XML-Files into R for statistical processing - huge means a size about 33 MB. I'm using the XML-Package version 1.9 As far as reading the complete file into R via xmlTreeParse doesn't work or is too slow, I'm trying to use xmlEventParse but I got completely stuck. I have many different type of nodes + <configuration>
