Hi all,

I am not too sure if this is the correct forum to post this problem. If it
ain't, then kindly redirect me to the correct one.  i am a newbie and  I am
trying to use the Xerces in my perl script using the Xml:Xerces interface.
When I execute my script to which works on the DOM object returned from
parser, I get file not found errors.

Can't locate auto/XML/Xerces/DOMNodeList/getNodeValu.al in
@INC (@INC contains: blah blah.......) at /root/jd/lib/Xml.pm line 142

Can't locate auto/XML/Xerces/DOMNodeList/hasChildNod.al in
@INC (@INC contains: blah blah.......) at /root//lib/Xml.pm line 27

I got these errors by using "$node->hasChildNodes()" in my script.


You aren't showing enough of your perl code to figure out how $node is set.

The error tells you that $node is an instance of the class DOMNodeList
- which has no hasChildNodes() method - it is a list of nodes not a
node, you will have to iterate through the list. Methods that return a
DOMNodeList object can be forced to return a simple Perl array if you
prefer:

  $dom_list_obj = $node->getChildeNodes() # return DOMNodeList object

 @node_list = $node->getChildeNodes() # return Perl array of DOMNodes

calling it in a scalar context gives you the Xerces List object,
calling it in an array context gives you a Perl list.

HTH, jas.
