Say I want to output XML like this: <myXML> <id>123</id> <fruit>apple</fruit> <fruit>banana</fruit> <fruit>pear</fruit> <fruit>lemon</fruit> </myXML>
Is there a way of doing that with to_xml? It seems like there's two problems: to_xml always creates a wrapping element <fruits> when it encounters an array, and... You can put plain strings into hash values and it works, but plain strings in arrays doesn't work. That's this guy's problem again http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/167577 . Maybe I should look at using Builder instead. Seems it gives me power over the XML output, but my code builds up a nested hash/array structure. Dont I end up embedding knowledge of that structure in two different places. Also from my hash I wanted to generate JSON too. Is there an approach converting from an XML doc object to JSON? or some other way I should be thinking about this? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
