Hello,
after the third day of trying to get libxml-ruby to work I'm a little bit frustrated. I don't even get the examples to run so I think I'm missing something important. Maybe one of You can help?
As I am expecting big XML-responses I chose XML::reader for my first steps. So I tried the code from http://libxml.rubyforge.org:
#! /usr/bin/ruby
# Testskript
require 'rubygems'
require "xml/libxml"
parser = XML::Reader.string("<foo><bar>1</bar><bar>2</bar><bar>3</bar></foo>")
reader.read
assert_equal('foo', reader.name)
assert_equal(nil, reader.value)
3.times do |i|
reader.read
assert_equal(XML::Reader::TYPE_ELEMENT, reader.node_type)
assert_equal('bar', reader.name)
reader.read
assert_equal(XML::Reader::TYPE_TEXT, reader.node_type)
assert_equal((i + 1).to_s, reader.value)
reader.read
assert_equal(XML::Reader::TYPE_END_ELEMENT, reader.node_type)
end
Sure enough I get the error message: "undefined local variable or method `reader'" so I tried to change
parser = XML::Reader...
to reader = XML::Reader...
"undefined method `assert_equal" is the next error message.
As I could not find a working tutorial on the net I wanted to know I someone could please explane this example to me?
Many thanks in advance,
sven
