Hi, I think I ran into a bug in the XML SAX parser.
part of my program consist of reading a rather large XML file (about 10Mb) containing a few thousand elements. I have the following problem. Sometimes that SAX parses misreads a line. Let me explain: the XML file contains a few thousand lines like this: " <TargetRef>WINOSSPI:Storage@@n91c90a.cmc.com</TargetRef> " where 'n91c90a.cmc.com' is the name of a system and thus changes per system. I a few cases, the SAX parser misreads the line. The parser sometimes plits characters the line in: "WINOSSPI:Storage@@n" and "91c90a.cmc.com". I put a 'print characters' line in the 'characters' method of the parser that is how I found out. It only happens for a few of the thousand lines but you can imagine that is very annoying. I checked for errors in the XML file but the file seems ok. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? I am new to Python. I am using Python 2.4.1, pyWin32 extension 2.4 and PyXML 0.8.4 Any help very much appreciated. Kris -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
