Hi, I am now using minidom for my current development. I use cloneNode method in Element object, but it just does not work. The test code is very simple as follows:
=========CODE============== from xml.dom.minidom import * a=Element('see') print a.toprettyxml() b=a.cloneNode(True) print b.toprettyxml() ---------------END CODE------------------- <see i="sullivan"/> Traceback (most recent call last): File "D:\__Apply\test8XML.py", line 10, in -toplevel- b=a.cloneNode(True) File "C:\Python24\lib\xml\dom\minidom.py", line 211, in cloneNode return _clone_node(self, deep, self.ownerDocument or self) File "C:\Python24\lib\xml\dom\minidom.py", line 1814, in _clone_node if node.ownerDocument.isSameNode(newOwnerDocument): AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'isSameNode' --------------result end------------------ Since the prototype of cloneNode is cloneNode(deep), which does not indicate the type of deep, I also tied other non-None value like cloneNode(1), cloneNode('a') etc.None of them work. Referencing the document, I have seen in python 2.0, this function was very broken. But my Python version is quite up-to-date: version 2.4.1. Is it a bug still not fixed?? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
