Reading - Code To Parse A XML File
Apr 15, 2011
I am using the following code to parse a XML file of mine:
Code:
Dim xml As String = "<?xml version=""1.0"" encoding=""Windows-1252""?>" & _
"<theref:theref-msg xmlns:csr=""http://www.xxxxx.com/Schema/csr"" xmlns:theref=""http://www.xxxxx.com/Schema/theref"">" & _
[CODE]...
I get a value of "0" from xmlb when i should get a "1" if it found something. I can get the first half (<theref:header> to </theref:header>) using this command:
Code:
Dim xmlb = (From getXMLData In document.<theref:theref-msg>.<theref:header>).ToList()

I'm currently working on a little software for my GPS and i havent touched VB in about 10 years so I'm trying to figure this out from scratch again pretty much. Anyway, I have this code to get the information from the GPS and parse it, the only problem is that It isn't getting all the code at once and then parsing, it is getting bits and pieces and only getting the RIGHT code from time to time..
Private Sub timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _

I'm trying to parse some XML (html) I downloaded using WebRequest.Create() and then read it. However after loading the XML file using LoadXml(string), anything else I execute doesn't work. Setting a breakpoint on anything afterwards doesn't work and it doesn't break.I tried catching exception but none are occurring, so I'm not sure what the problem is.
Here is my code:
Dim reader As StreamReader = New StreamReader(HTTPResponse.GetResponseStream())
Dim xDoc As XmlDocument = New XmlDocument()

I am creating a kind of 'lightweight' visual studio IDE, basically a text editor for VB or C# code files, or in other words: a visual studio IDE without all the fancy stuff like actually running projects, debugging, form designer, etc. The idea is that you can view and edit code source files quickly and easily without having to start visual studio itself. I often find myself opening source files in notepad when I just want to take a look at something quickly, or to type some code that is intended to be posted on this forum. I find it too much 'work' to fire up visual studio on those occasions, but it would be nice if I had some basic syntax highlighting (already have that), Intellisense and such.
What I'm trying to do now is parse a VB or C# source file to extract information such as the types/classes in a file, and the members (as well as their parameters and return type) in those classes.I was going to do this manually but I doubt I could pull it off efficiently (if at all), so I started thinking about it and thought maybe .NET has some built in functionality already. I don't know much about this stuff, but I do know that you can compile source code by feeding it a string that represents the code. So if it can 'compile a string', then surely it should be able to parse it as well? With the difference between compiling and parsing (I'm not sure if I have this terminology correct) I mean:
- compiling: reading the source and converting it to the CIL so it can be run
- parsing: reading the source and extracting classes/members info, so that the IDE can do some basic error checking (undeclared variable warnings etc) and display the members in a class (in those comboboxes at the top of the code editor for example).
I don't need to compile the source (I'm not going to run the application), I only need to parse it.I would assume that I could call some function that would return a collection of types (Type), and from that I could figure out the members (MethodInfo, PropertyInfo, etc) and their parameters, return types, etc. And all I should give it is the source code as a string.

I have tried a few things like converting HTML to XML and then using an XML navigator to get input elements but I get lost whenever I start this process.What I am trying to do is to navigate to a website which will be loaded using textbox1.text.Then download the html and parse out the input elements like . username, password, etc and place the element by type (id or name) into the richtextbox with the attribute beside the name.[code]Any clues or how to properly execute an HTML to XML conveter, reader, parser?

I just want to parse simple expressions like IIF(FVAL(PFC) = TRUE, (IIF((ORGVAL(BAS, "2012/12/31") + ORGVAL(DA)) < 6500, (FVAL(BAS) + FVAL(DA)) * 12%, 780)), 0)`After parsing this I should be able to know what functions contains what parameters.
[Code]...
I'm stuck with .Net Framework 2.0, so no Linq or lambda expression goodies for me. Also I want to include the code in my custom library and not just reference it. Can anyone point me to some good library or code.
I just need to parse and not evaluate the expression and find what tokens are in use. After finding the tokens I need to change the expression string before parsing, like if the function ORGVAL is used then the parameter passed has has to be prefixed by an underscore. Like ORGVAL(BAS) will transform to ORGVAL(_BAS). Some functions can have tow parameters like ORGVAL(BAS, "2012/12/31") and this will transform to ORGVAL(_BAS, "2012/12/31")
NOTE: IF THERE ARE OTHER WAYS OF DOING IT PLEASE LET ME KNOW. I WOULD LOVE TO AVOID A PARSER AND LEXER.

I have an app that the user selects information and it writes to an XML file. The user can increase and decrease the information in the XML file so it is dynamic. The other app reads the xml file and uses it to complete tasks. Since the XML is dynamic my code needs to account for that. Right now I have only allowed the XML to have up to four values in a certain node, I would like to allow more but I will need to increase the Select Case function.[code]

How can I parse XML that I don't have a file for?
I get the (dynamic) XML from an HTTP request, but all the XML classes I looked don't seem to be able to accept a string variable rather than a file.
I tried using XPath like this, but it just hangs.
Code:
Dim document as XPathDocument = new XPathDocument("http://www.myurl.com")

I occasionally have to search a very large text file as a troubleshooting step. The file is continuous text (with spaces between much of the text) but almost everything is date/time stamped. The text is actually messages between two machines so I'd like to insert a line break after every message so that I can follow the protocol exchange. Thre are also a few key words that I'd like to again, separate with a line break.

I'm working on a project and am kind of new to parsing files as well as listviews. I am trying to parse a file. Here is an example of what I need to parse.
a:b:c:d:e:f:g
a:b:c:d:e:f:g
a:b:c:d:e:f:g
Each entity needs to be stored in it's respective column in the listview. So therefore I need to read the file in line by line.

So, I'm writing an application to extract data from an excel sheet and output it nicely in a text boss, sounds simple to me at least. But for some reason ( and it was working fine earlier, don't recall changing anything.) The file is not being parsed before being stored into the array. And since it's not parsed, it's not seeing it in the array as I don't have it set up to look for a substring.[code]...

I am using VB.NET 2005 (if that matters).I need to parse a text (log) file in which to process lines like:
Program Up at: Tue Jun 24 11:32:53.656 2008 - TerrificProgram.exe
<some lines here which I ignore>
0.00:24:16 - Emergency Stop!
<more lines to ignore>
Program Down at: Thu May 29 22:22:56.000 2008
where the 0.0:24:16 is the offset in TimeSpan format (d.hh:mm:ss) relative to the 'Program Up at" datetime.The 'Program Up at: <date/time>' line I successfully detect (in another function which works) and as a result a set a Boolean flag that I am in a valid <Up> - <Down> sequence and I also set a Start-up DateTime var to which to add the offsets later.
The task is to convert the TimeSpan at the beginning of the 'Emergency stop' line to a regular DateTime expression and to write the converted line to another log-file.Simple, isn't it?The function I use for the above purpose is:
Private Function IsTimeSpan(ByRef InputLine As String, ByVal ProgStart As Boolean, ByVal DTofProgStart As DateTime, ByRef NewDateTime As DateTime)
Dim iLine As String = InputLine
Dim Index As Integer = iLine.IndexOf(" ")
[code]....
What I am doing is I pass each line ('InputLine' parameter) from the original log-file to the function together with the 'in <up>-<down>' flag ('ProgStart' parameter'), the start ot program DateTime (in the 'DTofProgStart') and I want the NewDate to hold the real datetime of Emergency event occurence (not its offset).
What happens is that I successfully detect the lines of interest but the NewDateTime is not updated (though 'ts' is in the correct format and the assignment 'NewDateTime = DTofProgStart' correctly assigns the passed value).Another curious thing is that the line
InputLine.Replace(testStr, NewDateTime.ToString("MMM dd HH':'mm':'ss yyyy"))
does not change the original TimeSpan beginning of 'InputLine' with the regular DateTime (though not updated) in 'NewDateTime'.Why?
