Actually, it's more of a surrender than a fix :-) I finally removed the E4X code and used the old XMLDocument object to process the XML and the verify errors went away.
I guess that E4X is not quite mature enough to be dependable in all cases, though it's a bit surprising that the compiler chokes on fairly simple E4X expressions. --- In [email protected], "Paul Whitelock" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Verify errors generally mean that you fooled the compiler somehow. > > Sometimes, name collisions can fool the compiler. > > Hmmm, odd.
