[Configuration] XML Processing Problem
Hi all,
After removing the ConfigurationXMLDocument I am down to two bugs. Right
now the testSave method of TestXmlConfiguration fails on the array check
when testing XmlConfiguration. The reason is that this line:
CharacterData data = document.createTextNode((String) value); seems to be
adding array elements into one string versus multiple elements. The XML
should look like:
<test>
<array>value1</array>
<array>value2</array>
<array>value3</array>
<array>value4</array>
</test>
However, it looks like:
<test>
<array>value1value2value3value4</array>
</test>
The same basic problem occurs with this loop:
// add an array of strings in an attribute
for (int i = 1; i < 5; i++)
{
conf.addProperty("test.attribute[@array]", "value" + i);
}
However, in this case, instead of add value1, value2, etc:
<test>
<attribute array="value1"/>
<attribute array="value2"/>
<attribute array="value3"/>
<attribute array="value4"/>
</test>
we get just:
<test>
<attribute array="value4"/>
</test>
Any suggestions on how to fix this? I am somewhere deep down in private
void setXmlProperty(String name, Object value) and quite lost!

This is true for CSV values in PropertiesConfiguration as well, there is
an RFE to allow alternate delimiters, this would apply to
XMLConfiguration too.

Hi,
I believe this has already been fixed. The solution I used was:
<test>
<array attribute="value1"/>
<array attribute="value2"/>
<array attribute="value3"/>
<array attribute="value4"/>
</test>
Using one comma seperated string would mean that attributes cannot
otherwise contain comma characters.
Kind regards...

Hehe welcome to the setXmlProperty hell ;) I think we'd better use comma
separated values for list properties in attributes:
<test>
<attribute array="value1, value2, value3, value4">
</test>
