Re: [flexcoders] Parsing Unterminated xml elements in Flex 2.0 Beta

Thanks for the response Matt.
I tried the legacy XMLDocument class, but it was a no go and got the same errors.  Oh well, I will just have to catch these errors and parse the unterminated nodes manually.

I don't think we allow invalid XML in the e4x stuff at least.  You can try using the flash.xml.XMLDocument class which is the legacy XML object, I suppose it may do what you want.

Subject: [flexcoders] Parsing Unterminated xml elements in Flex 2.0 Beta

 

Hi all,

 

I was wondering if you can parse unterminated XML elements in flex 2.0 beta.  For example I want to parse the following string "<flash:stream><root>" into a XMLNode.  I keep getting this error "XML parser failure: Unterminated element".  In flash 8, I can successfully parse unterminated XML, A flash 8 example below:

 

var myData:String = "<flash:stream><root>";
var xmlData:XML = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = this.ignoreWhite;
xmlData.parseXML (myData);
var firstNode:XMLNode = xmlData.firstChild ;
var nodeName:String = firstNode.nodeName.toLowerCase();
trace(nodeName); //outputs flash:stream

 

I can't seem to get this working with Action Script 3.0 in flex or get a rewrite with the new XML classes in AS3?

 

Anyone have any thoughts or solutions to this problem of mine?

 

-Dan
