>>Here's XML2AS as an AS2 static class for her pleasure.
Steve,
I've used a lot of XML parsers, and have never found one I've been fully
satisfied with. I've seen you post this a few times before, but I couldn
never get yours working right, so I thought I would try again. I like
the simplicity and figure that will translate to speed if I can get it
working.
So, this worked fine initially, then stopped working:
trace(xmlObj.config[0].test[0].attributes.foo);
So I suspected maybe your parser had not finished. I even tried putting
the rest of the code further down the timeline to be sure at frame 20,
but no luck. How would you grab "Other text" from the XML? I tried it
this way, as I would have expected it to work:
trace(xmlObj.config[0].items[0].item[2])
Also tried:
trace(xmlObj.config[0].items[0].item[2].nodeValue)
Either way is how I would expect it to work, but they just trace
"undefined". Here is my code with comments where it breaks - Again, I
even tried putting the rest of the code further down the timeline, to be
sure your method had finished parsing, but it made no difference:
import com.stevensacks.data.XML2AS; //imports fine
var myXML = new XML();
myXML.load("myXML.xml");
myXML.onLoad = xmlLoadHandler
function xmlLoadHandler (success){
var xmlObj:Object = {};
XML2AS.parse(myXML.firstChild, xmlObj);
trace(myXML.firstChild) //traces fine
trace(XML2AS) //traces fine
trace(xmlObj.config[0].test[0].attributes.foo); //undefined
trace(xmlObj.config[0].items[0].item[2].nodeValue) //undefined
var nodes:Array = xmlObj.config[0].items[0].item;
trace(nodes) // undefined
var i:Number = nodes.length; while (i--) {
trace(nodes[i]);
}
}
/* myXML.xml file:
<config>
<test foo="bar"/>
<items>
<item><![CDATA[Some text]]></item>
<item><![CDATA[More text]]></item>
<item><![CDATA[Other text]]></item>
</items>
</config>
your class file:
class com.stevensacks.data.XML2AS
{
public static function parse(n, r)
{
var a, d, k;
if (r[k=n.nodeName] == null) r = ((a=r[k]=[{}]))[d=0];
else r = (a=r[k])[d=r[k].push({})-1];
if (n.hasChildNodes()) {
if ((k=n.firstChild.nodeType) == 1) {
r.attributes = n.attributes;
for (var i in k=n.childNodes)
XML2AS.parse(k[i], r);
} else if (k == 3) {
a[d] = new
String(n.firstChild.nodeValue);
a[d].attributes = n.attributes;
}
} else r.attributes = n.attributes;
}
}

Any ideas?
