RE: [RPG XML] misuse of DOMXPath_getElemCount() ?

Use the SAX parser instead that is also on my site.  It is quite faster
and less bulky.  I don't support the DOM parser wrappers I wrote anymore
because the SAX parser is the one to use.

BTW, if you know Java that is the way you should be processing your XML.
WDSc has some amazing wizards to get you up and running with XML in
minutes, literally.

Subject: [RPG XML] misuse of DOMXPath_getElemCount() ?

Hi there,
i'm trying to parse an XML file in RPG with Aaron Bartells DOM parser
wrapper functions (www.mowyourlawn.com).
But Aarons DOMXPath_getElemCount() seems to return the wrong
elementcounts.

The file i'm parsing is: http://www.myangel0ne.de/test.xml

When i parse it, the file lies in the ifs with CCSID 819.
I initialize my parser with:
eval
gDOMParser=DOMParser_init(IFS_FILE:gFileLocation:VALIDATE_NO:CCSID37:%PA
ddr(catchError))
gFileLocation is "/tmp/xmlfile.txt".

I want to work with these "WegPunkt" Elements.
As I see it, the file has 105 of them.

In my RPG Program
eval
gNodeCount=DOMXPath_getElemCount(gRoot:'MGSvrReturn/RouteListe/WegPunkte
/WegPunkt')
keeps telling me that there are just 84 of these elements.

The other time i had 134 elements and RPG meant there are just 116.

Everything else but these elementcounts works really fine.
Maybe anyone here has an idea whats wrong with my program.
