RE: Replace text in XML file

I'm not sure if "crash" is the right word, but it dumped a half dozen spooled files, created a WRKPRB entry, the joblog contained errors in the LIC, and the joblog said to contact your compiler vendor. Our PTF's are current as-of August 1st.

I saved off my changes and rolled back to the last commit. I re-applied the changes one at a time (only about 15-20 lines). The mere presence of ON-EXIT triggered the crash. I reported this to IBM and they came back with a new PTF for this issue.

Thanks

Why not post your basic code and we'll see if we can spot anything.

Did you really crash the compile? If so then have you checked PTF levels? If it was a run time crash then you probably did something silly with a pointer and a look at your code should help deal with that.

I have an XML IFS file < 1 MB in size. I need to replace an empty tag. This is within an existing RPG pgm, so I figured it would be simple enough to use the IFS API's to read the file, manipulate the text and write it back out. Well I managed to crash the compiler (seriously.. dump spooled files, WRKPRB entry, the works). While I wait on IBM support, I decided to go looking for a better option. About all I've found is talk about XML-INTO & XML-SAX to deserialize XML. That isn't really practical here, since my input and output will both be IFS files.

Any suggestions?
