Re: [Boost-users] [Property Tree] special character in XML tag

Hi,

'CudbAppServiceId=1' is not an attribute, this should be the tag itself. In fact, the XML would be correct if the tag would not contain the special equality sign.

Kind of my point: I might challenge whether CubdAppServiceId1 wasn't intended to be the tag. The '=' just confuses things, except possibly as an artifact of the INFO specification, which I am ignorant of.

'CudbAppServiceId=1' is a node in the property tree, which don't have value, but has 3 children. So a well formed XML would look like this, I suppose: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <userLabel/> <sqlAppSrvPlSchema>identities-pl.sql</sqlAppSrvPlSchema> <CudbAppServiceId>CudbAppServiceId=1</CudbAppServiceId>

The bug is reported here: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/8095

Will assume that he's filed a bug. Not sure what the intended goal is since I'm not familiar with INFO per se. Are we saying that CdbAppServiceId=1 is an attribute?

Or is intended as a tab with "1" value? What sort of general bug is this? Does it impact pure Xml usage with Xml paths, parents, children, elements, attributes, values, etc?

Thank you...

Hi,

I have the following property tree, dumped in INFO format:

CudbAppServiceId=1 { userLabel "" sqlAppSrvPlSchema identities-pl.sql CudbAppServiceId CudbAppServiceId=1 }

When I dump it in XML format, I got the following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <userLabel/> <sqlAppSrvPlSchema>identities-pl.sql</sqlAppSrvPlSchema> <CudbAppServiceId>CudbAppServiceId=1</CudbAppServiceId>

This is not a valid XML, because we have a tag "CudbAppServiceId=1". Of course, any other xml parser like xmllint will fail to parse it, because of the equality sign in the tag.

Is there any solution to this problem? Like somehow emitting = instead of the raw '=' inside the tag and in the text?

Please file a bug. It might still be a few weeks before I get to work on PropertyTree properly again, and this mail will get lost otherwise.

Sebastian
