QXStreamreader' readnext function

Hello,

I am trying to parse an xml doc. Considering the following xml data:

Code:

---

<item>
<title>New champion..</title>
<link>
http://www.radikal.com.tr/Radikal.aspx?aType=RadikalHaberDetay&ArticleID=919267&CategoryID=103
</link>
<description>http://www.radikal.com.tr/2009/01/30/</description>
</item>

---

When i try to read the "link" parameter:

Code:

---

if (current == "link"){
    link = reader->text().toString();
    reader->readNext();
}

---

"link" returns "http://www.radikal.com.tr/Radikal.aspx?aType=RadikalHaberDetay"

when once more i read next:

Code:

---

reader->readNext();

---

"link" returns "&ArticleID=919267" and once more...:

Code:

---

reader->readNext();

---

"link" returns "&CategoryID=103".

QXmlStreamreader splits "link" into three pieces(on "&" sections). I want to get all "link" in one read step. How can i achieve that?

Thanks in advance..

are you sure you don't have to escape those &s to & in your xml?

Do you mean, i should parse it after replacing &s?

I replaced "&" s by "&"s ; but the result didn't change.It behaves same..

I entered you link as text in my Qt based report designer, and it saves and loads without problem with QXmlStreamReader. Below is the exported file fyi. Do you have a proper xml header in your file?

Code:

---

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE bpsreport>
<report name="New Report" paper="0" orientation="0" papersize="210,297" margins="10,10,10,10">
    <script></script>
    <section name="Section 1" height="20" position="0" autogrow="true">
        <simpletext name="Simple text 1" zvalue="0" pos="36,7" size="145,8" 
font="MS Shell Dlg 2,8.25,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0" color="#ff000000" margins="0,0,0,0" 
alignment="3" direction="0" roundness="0" pen="0,0,#ff000000" brush="0,100,#ff000000">
            <text>http://www.radikal.com.tr/Radikal.aspx?aType=RadikalHaberDetay&amp;ArticleID=919267&amp;CategoryID=103</text>
        </simpletext>
    </section>
</report>

Actually it is an rss file, it has no xml header; but it has an rss header:

Code:

---

<rss version="2.0">

---

Does it make any difference for QXmlstreamreader?

Actually also RSS should have a valid XML header. Here is a sample from the specifications:

Code:

---

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<rss version="2.0">
   <channel>
      <title>Liftoff News</title>
      <link>http://liftoff.msfc.nasa.gov/</link>
...

---

Oh my God..It already had all headers..I was opening the xml doc with firefox...So it does not show the headers..Sorry silly mistake :-)

Returning to the problem...The actual headers are:

Code:

---

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<rss version="2.0" xmlns:content="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/content/" xmlns:wfw="http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/" xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">

So they exist, why does QXmlStreamreader behave diferent for you and me :eek: :confused:

Hmm, since you are using namespace, would enabling them with setNamespaceProcessing (true) make a difference?

Other ideas:

• try to read my file above, to find if the file is to blame
• check for errors after every method call
• I am using 4.4.3, with older releases I had problems with formated xml files

.

No luck...QXmlStreamreader continues to split "link"...
Anyway i made my application work in another tricky way..Thanks for help..
