New Post: Basic help

imagremlin — Wed, 13 Mar 2013 06:33:36 GMT

Hello

I need basic help using this library. I have been given a number of XSLT files with a vague commentary reading "The MVP.XML library to be used for its inclusion of EXSLT". That's all I got.

I have tried in different ways to use this library without success, Trying to find examples has not yielded usable results either.

I'm trying to write a piece of c# code to apply this transformation to an xml file I've been given. Using regular XslCompiledTransform does not work because its missing the extension object. So I thought maybe the extension object would be implemented by this library.

Using VS2010.

My first question would be, why does the Mvp namespace disappears? I add the reference to Mvp.dll, intellitype recognizes the namespace, but once I build, the namespace somehow vanishes and now there is no Mvp namespace to be found anywhere. Not in the object browser, not in intellitype. I had never seen a library behave like this. I even tried rebuilding the source and having a project reference. Same results.

Are the DocSite generated files available somewhere in a .zip file or other downloadable format? I've tried to rebuild from source and I don't get the HTML files - even after I change the project settings to generate them (<PublishCopyOption>AllFiles</PublishCopyOption>)

Anyone here except crickets?

New Post: Is MvpXslTransform.Transform thread safe

papadi — Thu, 22 Jul 2010 10:11:37 GMT

Hi,

I'm using one xslt file to transform many xml files. These transformations happen concurrently, and I was wondering if MvpXslTransform instances and MvpXslTransform.Transform method is thread safe, so that I can use the same instance for all my transformation.

I never tested it with .NET 4.0, but I think it's safe to ignore the warnings.

Anyway, this is not really a supported project anymore. All devs moved out. But it's open source, you are on your own.

I was using Firefox to make my original submission, I edited the original post in IE and now everything seems to be able to be read!

Sorry folks, on submission of my discussion, it seems CodePlex has stripped all of the paragraph formatting from my post which makes it virtually impossible to read!

Hi Folks,

I am a relative newcomer to the Xml field in my travels, I came across this project which seems promising.

I have some issues which are causing me confusion.

With a clean download of the source code for the project the unit test suites fail, I ended up setting the Ignore attribute in a number of tests to get them to pass. I noticed a question on the forum in relation to this matter but it was never answered. Should all the tests pass. I have listed all the Tests I set to ignore below.

Testing started:

RandomSequenceTest has ignored:
HasSameNodeTest has ignored:
DecodeUriTest has ignored:
EncodeUriTest has ignored:
DayAbbreviationTest has ignored:
DayNameTest has ignored:
MonthAbbreviationTest has ignored:
MonthNameTest has ignored:
CharMapTest has ignored:
CharMapTest2 has ignored:
CharMapTest3 has ignored:
CharMapTest4 has ignored:
CharMapTest6 has ignored:
SubtreeSpeed has ignored:
Passed : 376, Failed : 0, Ignored : 14
Duration : 22.3681114941239

I tried to debug but I could not work out why the tests fail and I am not able to offer a fix. Perhaps these tests are old and need to be excluded.

Another issue I came into concerns compatibility with .net 4.0. If I retarget the source projects to .net 4.0 I get the following errors

I also had to target the full .net Framework (not the client only) since there are references to System.Web which is not included in the client profile.

I noticed that the last update was in 2007 and this is perhaps one reason why I have experienced the problems I have. It would be great to think that these issues may have a chance of being solved in future.

I appreciate that all the Xml experts are busy and may not have time for such matters, nevertheless I felt it appropriate to bring to light the fact that I have experienced them and do not feel I know how to resolve them and offer a fix.

If anyone is able to offer a solution I for one would very much appreciate your efforts, and I am sure I would not be alone.

Best wishes

Austin

HI All,

I had a windows service project that basic purpose is to transform xml using xslt.

Earlier I am using xslt1.0, but now we need to support xslt2.0 is this xslt version is supported by MVP?

Or I have to switch to some other third party tool?

New Post: XIncludingReader with XmlSerializer

marco_craveiro — Wed, 19 May 2010 10:30:48 GMT

Hi MVPers.

I'm sure I'm doing something really silly, I just haven't quite figured out what.

Basically all I want to do is to deserialize some hand-crafted XML, hydrating some XSD.exe generated classes. The hand-crafted XML uses XInlcude so I'm using XIncludingReader to read it in; according to the release notes for v2.3, XIncludingReader with XMLSerializer is a supported scenario. In addition, I also want the hand-crafted XML validated, so I'm using a Schema Set for that.

Unfortunately, deserialization fails for me. The problem appears to be in the autogenerated XmlSerialization code, more specifically in Reader.MoveToElement() call of ReadXX_Templates; for some reason this does not result in moving back to the Templates element, as one would expect after all attributes have been read (the last attribute is xml:base, not sure if this is important or not).

My environment is Visual Studio 2008, .Net Framework 3.5.

I've got a small project that illustrates the issue, but haven't quite figured out how to use attachments in this forum. I'll attach it on a subsequent post. Once the project has been uploaded, you should be able to see the problem by ticking Debug | Exceptions | Common Language Runtime Exceptions | Thrown and F5'ing it. The Reader.MoveToElement is just above the place where the exception is thrown.

Many thanks for your time.

Marco

New Post: Transformation of BIG XML files

Soft_coder — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 20:00:33 GMT

Hello,

I have xml files that should be transfomated. I tried to use simple XSL Transformation and it works pretty well for small files.

With bigger files (more than 100 MB) I get OutOfMemory exception during transformation.

I investigated this problem and found that I should combine XmlTextReader with XPath to achive best performance.

Could Mvp.Xml help me with this?

I have such structure of input XML:

<Products>
	<Product>
		<Id>2</Id> 
		<Name>SomeName</Name>
		<CategoryID>2</CategoryID>
	</Products>
	...
	<Product>
		<Id>5</Id> 
		<Name>SomeName</Name>
		<CategoryID>1</CategoryID>
	</Product>
</Products>

<Categories>
	<Category>
		<Id>1</Id>
		<CategoryName>CategoryName</CategoryName>
	</Category>
	...
	<Category>
		<Id>1</Id>
		<CategoryName>CategoryName</CategoryName>
	</Category>
</Categories>

And I should get such output XML:

<Categories>
	 <Category Id="1" Name="CategoryName">
		<Products>
			 <Products Id="5" Name="SomeName" CategoryID="1" .../>
			...

		</Products>

	</Category>
	 <Category Id="2" Name="CategoryName">
		<Products>

			  <Products Id="2" Name="SomeName" CategoryID="2" .../>
			 ...
		 </Products>
	</Category>
</Categories>


XML should become nested.

Could you help me?

Thanks.

New Post: API Documentation

olegt — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 06:15:51 GMT

The problem is that DocSite generated documentation needs ASP.NET web hosting, which I don't have anymore. You can find somewhat older (version 2.0) API docs at http://mvp-xml.sourceforge.net/api/2.0/index.html.

Also the sources contain all documentation :)
