Re^7: Error with .xml file processing in XML::Simple

Ah, just realised a silly mistake :P It wasn't called .enc :P

Anyway, renamed it - and now get this error:

<pre>./iso-8859-15.enc isn't an encmap file at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_p
+erl/5.8.4/x86_64-linux/XML/Parser.pm line 187
</pre>
<p>
For help, please send mail to this site's webmaster, giving this error
+ message
and the time and date of the error.

</p>

Any more suggestions?

TIA!

This is what the README has to say about the `.enc` files: These maps were generated by a perl script that comes with the module XML::Encoding, compile_encoding, from XML formatted encoding maps that are distributed with that module. These XML encoding maps were generat +ed in turn with a different script, domap, from mapping information conta +ined on the Unicode version 2.0 CD-ROM. This CD-ROM comes with the Unicode Standard reference manual and can be ordered from the Unicode Consorti +um at http://www.unicode.org. The identical information is available on t +he internet at ftp://ftp.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS. [download] so, my guess would be that you have to run your `8859-15.TXT` file through these two scripts... Or, take the easy way out, and redeclare your XML input to be in ISO-8859-1 :) ISO-8859-1 is pretty close to ISO-8859-15, but you wouldn't have the Euro sign, for example. See ISO-8859-15 for an exact list of differences. Depending on what the end output is of your processing chain (i.e., if it's still in ISO-Latin* single-byte encoding, and not something like UTF-8), it might work if you simply redeclare it back to ISO-8859-15 when done. ___ Side note: please don't use `<pre>...</pre>` tags - at least not for long lines (use `<c>...</c>` instead). Most browsers don't auto-wrap those lines, but add horizontal scrollbars instead — in short, the page gets messed up... (Your "`<pre>This function looks... </pre>`" in Re^3: Error with .xml file processing in XML::Simple is definitely too long for `<pre>`, and some people would even say that 20 chars is 'long').

Hi, Thanks for the helps guys/gals. Managed to get it working via this command :) `perl -pi.bak -e 's\|ISO-8859-15\|iso-8859-1\|' $file`; Cheers Andy	[reply]

Ok, that SSH line I gave didn't do quite what I wanted. I ended up finding the .enc file here as a download :) http://www.nabble.com/Bug-380426:-missing-encoding-for-iso-8859-15-td5561114.html (just in case anyone else comes across the same issue =)) Cheers Andy	[reply]
