Re^4: Couldn't create file parser context for file "somename.xml"

Hello, After adding the code proposed I get the following:

$ perl parseXML.pl "D:\Perl-Implementaion\ParseXM
L\test"
cwd = /cygdrive/D/Perl-Implementaion/ParseXML
files:
$VAR1 = [
          "bb.xml",
          "bbCopy.xml"
        ];
bb.xml
className= org.argouml.uml.cognitive.critics.CrClassMustBeAbstract
methodName= predicate2(Object,Designer)
bbCopy.xml
Could not create file parser context for file "bbCopy.xml": No such fi
+le or dire
ctory at parseXML.pl line 37
[download]

You see both files are there. By the way I do not "ls". To get the files in a directory I have the following in the beginning of my script:

use XML::LibXML;

$ARGV[0] || die; 

$path=$ARGV[0];
 
# open the designated directory
opendir(DIR, $path);
@files = grep(/\.xml$/,readdir(DIR));

Thanks for helping me.

You're telling XML::Parser to open /cygdrive/D/Perl-Implementaion/ParseXML/bb.xml and /cygdrive/D/Perl-Implementaion/ParseXML/bbCopy.xml but the files you want to open are D:\Perl-Implementaion\ParseXML\test\bb.xml and D:\Perl-Implementaion\ParseXML\test\bbCopy.xml Notice the missing "test". Fix: `my @files = map "$path/$_", grep /\.xml\z/, readdir(DIR);` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

Hi, Thanks!!! I added the "map.." part and it worked. But what was wrong with my code? you are telling that I am telling XML::Parser to open `/cygdrive/D/Perl-Implementaion/ParseXML/bb.xml` [download] and `/cygdrive/D/Perl-Implementaion/ParseXML/bbCopy.xml` [download] But I pass the address of the directory in which the files are located as a parameter to my script: `perl parseXML.pl "D:\Perl-Implementaion\ParseXML\test"` [download] So what is wrong in this??

Yes but you don't pass the name of that directory to XML::LibXML.	[reply]
