Hi Stuart
I've reviewed the sword spec you sent through. It seems that the spec
RECOMMENDS a deposit receipt is returned but doesn't REQUIRE it. Even
the status code is not mandatory (provided I'm reading the spec
correctly. The spec goes on to say " The server MAY, though, return any
response which it feels appropriate" so it seems DSpace is returning the
bare minimum of what is recommended (I.e. a 201 Created).
Based on this information, I've gone ahead and changed my code to return
the "raw" result if no response XML is returned, which will stop an
exception being thrown by SimpleXmlElement when the XML response is empty.
E.g.
try {
if ($sac_resp) {
// Get the deposit results
$sac_xml = @new SimpleXMLElement($sac_resp);
$sac_ns = $sac_xml->getNamespaces(true);
// Build the deposit response object
$sac_dresponse->buildhierarchy($sac_xml, $sac_ns);
}
} catch (Exception $e) {
throw new Exception("Error parsing response entry (" .
$e->getMessage() . ")");
}
I've also made some minor modifications to the Sword PHP client so that
it can be installed as a Joomla! library. Let me know if you would like
me to send this through to you.
Cheers
Hayden
