I'm writing in hopes to see what I'm doing wrong when trying to manipulate
an xml doc.
The problems comes with deleting, and I'm running in loads of problems.
an example of the xml doc :
<dropdowns>
<drop name="abba">
<drop_item>a</drop_item>
<drop_item>b</drop_item>
<drop_item>c</drop_item>
<drop_item>d</drop_item>
<drop_item>e</drop_item>
</drop>
<drop name="1221">
<drop_item>1</drop_item>
<drop_item>2</drop_item>
<drop_item>3</drop_item>
<drop_item>4</drop_item>
<drop_item>5</drop_item>
</drop>
<dropdowns>
<!--- reading page --->
<cffile action="read" file="C:\CFusionMX\wwwroot\Mathmotors\drop.xml"
variable="xmlmy">
<cfscript>
drop = xmlparse(xmlmy);//xml thats parsed.
dropx = drop.xmlroot;// The xml root.
c_dropx = dropx.xmlchildren;// Gets the array for all of the drop down
groups.
count_c_dropx = arraylen(c_dropx);// Gets the count of
arrays,(dropdowns.drop) Needed for a loop.
hmm ="abba";// fake variable
tt = xmlsearch(dropx,"/dropdowns/drop[@name='#hmm#']/drop_item/");
/* The Search (returns an array, which will give me the info for the
dropdown)*/
toto = arraylen(tt);
</cfscript>
<!--- One way I've tried --->
<cfoutput>
<!--- Loop through the "drop" elements--->
<cfloop from="1" to="#arraylen(c_dropx)#" index="i">
<!--- Set the dropchildren to a variable to be able to loop over--->
<cfscript>
yes = dropx.drop[i].xmlchildren;
</cfscript>
<!--- Where the drop name's attribute equals "abba" then I can edit down
the tree --->
<cfif dropx.drop[i].xmlattributes["name"] is "abba">
<!--- Loop over the yes value, which would be the same as looping over the
<drop_item> elements --->
<cfloop from="1" to="#arraylen(yes)#" index="j">
<!--- Set the dropchildren to a variable to be able to loop over--->
<cfscript>
yes = dropx.drop[i].xmlchildren;
</cfscript>
<!--- WHere the <dropelement>'s text equals "a" delete that element @ it's
index --->
<cfif yes[j].xmltext is "a">
<cfdump var="#j#">
<!--- Dumps ok, .. returns the postition of
audi--->
<cfdump var="#yes#">
<!--- Dumps ok, .. returns the array needed
--->
<cfscript>
arraydeleteat(yes,
j);/*when this is in, returns the
error, without it everything runs fine*/
</cfscript>
</cfif>
</cfloop>
</cfif>
</cfloop>
</cfoutput>
I've also tried ...: With using the xpath syntax (set in the upper
cfscript)
<cfoutput>
<cfloop from="1" to="#arraylen(tt)#" index="i">
<cfif #tt[i].xmltext# is "a">
<cfscript>
arraydeleteat(tt, i);/*when this is in, returns the
error, without it
everything runs fine*/
</cfscript>
</cfif>
</cfloop>
</cfoutput>
Both of which bail.. the first one bails without an actual error,
. just the araydeleteat() being the line it error'd at.
But when I looked in to the logs,
It says java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException and searching google only gave
two results,
. both of which have no bearing on the situation at hand.
The element at position 5 of dimension 1, of array variable "TT," cannot be
found is
the one on the second try, and with it, the array itself is cfdumped, and
there is 5 elements in the array ,I've read the docs
I've double checked what I know how. What the hell am I doing wrong?
Thanks for your help
Robby
ps I do have updater 2 installed if it has any bearing
