My XML stream (snippet):
<ObDirectMemberOfGroups><ObGroup></ObGroup><ObGroup></ObGroup></ObDirectMemb
erOfGroups>
My code snippet:
XMLCh* xDirGroupMemberTag =
XMLString::transcode("ObDirectMemberOfGroups");
DOMNodeList* DirMemberTagList =
doc->getElementsByTagName(xDirGroupMemberTag);
DOMNode* DirGroupNode = DirMemberTagList->item(0);
DOMElement* DirGroupElem = dynamic_cast<DOMElement* >
(DirGroupNode);
DOMNodeList* DirGroupsList = DirGroupElem->getChildNodes();
const XMLSize_t GroupsCount = DirGroupsList->getLength();
fprintf(stderr,"Number of Groups: %d\n",GroupsCount);
//This prints 2, as expected - the number of children of the
"ObDirectMemberOfGroups" tag is 2.
However, things change when the same XML is received as a response from
another application. There the XML comes as:
<ObDirectMemberOfGroups>
<ObGroup>
</ObGroup>
<ObGroup>
</ObGroup>
</ObDirectMemberOfGroups>
That is, the tags on separate lines. Now, the code prints the number of
children as "5". Upon investigation, I found that the 3 extra tags are
coming as "Text" tags with values as "#text", and they are inter-leaved with
the 2 expected Element tags "ObGroup".
How can I tell the parser to treat the same as a stream, and not to consider
the newlines or the white-spaces as text tags?
Any pointers/help will be gratefully received.
Regards.
