XML – Fatal Error generated during parsing

[Ronald Ortiz]

I’m testing the schema and a sample xml file from the vendor, and I’m running into the following error.  Any idea’s?

Also, I’m on Cloverleaf 5.8.4

Hi Ronald,

In your example there are a lot of entries that look like self-closing elements:

Code:

---

…

If these are really self-closing (ie empty) elements, then there should be a space between the name of the element and the closing /, like this:

Code:

---

…

Otherwise the element name is ‘Hgb/’ and this element needs to be closed.

I have never used self-closing elements myself in Cloverleaf, so I’m not sure they are accepted. But they should be, as they are valid XML.

Hi Robert,

Yeah, working with a vendor Nicom Cheetah and that’s apparently how they send out their XML.  I’ve been testing different idea’s to get this to work.  So far nothing.  

I even changed it to the following, and it’s still giving the same error:

Code:

Hi Ronald,

I got curious and tested the XML angainst the XSD in CL5.7 and it worked! I used the files you attached in your first mail and no problems:

Code:

Please Wait ……
Command Issued: hcixmltest -d 1 -f eof -p test CheetahData /hci/qdx5.7/integrator/test/formats/xml/test/Packet10.txt
Command output:

MESSAGE 1
CheetahData.PackageLocalID.#text:   >02011:01:13T10:14:502011:01:13T10:14:19TEST_TYPE_RESTPROTOCOL_TYPE_NONEjohnjr.smith0123456765.000181.000361.835GENDER_MALE<

So self-closing elements is no problem for CL.

I now see what’s going wrong: you need to use ‘EOF Terminated’ instead of ‘New Line Terminated’ when testing. You are only handling the first line, instead of the whole file/xml.
