kxml2's Issues

I am unable to parse this data. It is a ActiveSync SendMail payload in http request.

byte[] arrOutput = { 0x03, 0x01, 0x6A, 0x00, 0x00, 0x15, 0x45, 0x51, 0x03, 0x36, 0x30, 0x44, 0x46, 0x33, 0x30, 0x46, 0x39, 0x2D, 0x44, 0x35, 0x34, 0x43, 0x2D, 0x34, 0x37, 0x32, 0x35, 0x2D, 0x41, 0x33, 0x44, 0x44, 0x2D, 0x31, 0x43, 0x41, 0x45, 0x32, 0x35, 0x45, 0x39, 0x38, 0x33, 0x42, 0x30, 0x00, 0x01, 0x08, 0x50, 0xC3, 0x82, 0x48, 0x43, 0x6F, 0x6E, 0x74, 0x65, 0x6E, 0x74, 0x2D, 0x54, 0x79, 0x70, 0x65, 0x3A, 0x20, 0x74, 0x65, 0x78, 0x74, 0x2F, 0x70, 0x6C, 0x61, 0x69, 0x6E, 0x3B, 0x0D, 0x0A, 0x09, 0x63, 0x68, 0x61, 0x72, 0x73, 0x65, 0x74, 0x3D, 0x75, 0x73, 0x2D, 0x61, 0x73, 0x63, 0x69, 0x69, 0x0D, 0x0A, 0x43, 0x6F, 0x6E, 0x74, 0x65, 0x6E, 0x74, 0x2D, 0x54, 0x72, 0x61, 0x6E, 0x73, 0x66, 0x65, 0x72, 0x2D, 0x45, 0x6E, 0x63, 0x6F, 0x64, 0x69, 0x6E, 0x67, 0x3A, 0x20, 0x37, 0x62, 0x69, 0x74, 0x0D, 0x0A, 0x46, 0x72, 0x6F, 0x6D, 0x3A, 0x20, 0x72, 0x61, 0x6D, 0x40, 0x71, 0x61, 0x6C, 0x6F, 0x63, 0x61, 0x6C, 0x2E, 0x6F, 0x6E, 0x6D, 0x69, 0x63, 0x72, 0x6F, 0x73, 0x6F, 0x66, 0x74, 0x2E, 0x63, 0x6F, 0x6D, 0x0D, 0x0A, 0x4D, 0x69, 0x6D, 0x65, 0x2D, 0x56, 0x65, 0x72, 0x73, 0x69, 0x6F, 0x6E, 0x3A, 0x20, 0x31, 0x2E, 0x30, 0x20, 0x28, 0x31, 0x2E, 0x30, 0x29, 0x0D, 0x0A, 0x44, 0x61, 0x74, 0x65, 0x3A, 0x20, 0x4D, 0x6F, 0x6E, 0x2C, 0x20, 0x31, 0x31, 0x20, 0x46, 0x65, 0x62, 0x20, 0x32, 0x30, 0x31, 0x39, 0x20, 0x31, 0x38, 0x3A, 0x30, 0x36, 0x3A, 0x33, 0x38, 0x20, 0x2B, 0x30, 0x35, 0x33, 0x30, 0x0D, 0x0A, 0x53, 0x75, 0x62, 0x6A, 0x65, 0x63, 0x74, 0x3A, 0x20, 0x4D, 0x79, 0x0D, 0x0A, 0x4D, 0x65, 0x73, 0x73, 0x61, 0x67, 0x65, 0x2D, 0x49, 0x64, 0x3A, 0x20, 0x3C, 0x36, 0x30, 0x44, 0x46, 0x33, 0x30, 0x46, 0x39, 0x2D, 0x44, 0x35, 0x34, 0x43, 0x2D, 0x34, 0x37, 0x32, 0x35, 0x2D, 0x41, 0x33, 0x44, 0x44, 0x2D, 0x31, 0x43, 0x41, 0x45, 0x32, 0x35, 0x45, 0x39, 0x38, 0x33, 0x42, 0x30, 0x40, 0x71, 0x61, 0x6C, 0x6F, 0x63, 0x61, 0x6C, 0x2E, 0x6F, 0x6E, 0x6D, 0x69, 0x63, 0x72, 0x6F, 0x73, 0x6F, 0x66, 0x74, 0x2E, 0x63, 0x6F, 0x6D, 0x3E, 0x0D, 0x0A, 0x54, 0x6F, 0x3A, 0x20, 0x78, 0x78, 0x78, 0x78, 0x78, 0x78, 0x78, 0x78, 0x78, 0x78, 0x40, 0x67, 0x6D, 0x61, 0x69, 0x6C, 0x2E, 0x63, 0x6F, 0x6D, 0x0D, 0x0A, 0x0D, 0x0A, 0x45, 0x6D, 0x70, 0x74, 0x69, 0x65, 0x64, 0x20, 0x0D, 0x0A, 0x0D, 0x0A, 0x53, 0x65, 0x6E, 0x74, 0x20, 0x66, 0x72, 0x6F, 0x6D, 0x20, 0x6D, 0x79, 0x20, 0x69, 0x50, 0x68, 0x6F, 0x6E, 0x65, 0x0D, 0x0A, 0x01, 0x01 };

Note: Used all ActiveSync Code pages.

InputStream inStream = new ByteArrayInputStream(arrOutput.getBytes()); WbxmlParser wbxmlParser = new WbxmlParser(); wbxmlParser.setTagTable(...) ----> all ActiveSync code pages wbxmlParser.setTagTable(...) wbxmlParser.setInput(inStream , "UTF-8"); Document doc = new Document(); doc.parse(wbxmlParser); ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream(); KXmlSerializer xmlSerializer = new KXmlSerializer(); xmlSerializer.setOutput(out, null); doc.write(xmlSerializer); xmlSerializer.flush(); System.out.println(new String(out));

Expected out put is XML Converted SendMail command with tag included. I used all ActiveSync Code pages.

But I get out put as only as shown below:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?><SendMail><Status>FB0602CB-84D1-4E1B-97ED-27AAB989C55A</Status><SaveInSentItems /><ClientId></ClientId></SendMail>

Please let me know if need more info.

Traversing the Parse Tree starting from a Node of TYPE != ELEMENT not possible.

Hello Stefan,

When using kxml2 to analyze "unknown" XML documents, I stumbled upon the fact that only nodes of the type ELEMENT are assigned their predecessors. So it is not possible to walk through the parse tree if the start point is not of type ELEMENT Wouldn't it be more sensible if elements of the type COMMENT and TEXT (possibly all) also get their predecessor. Should the memory requirement or the garbage collection be the reason for this decision perhaps using a weake reference for parrent could be the solution.

I hope I haven't overlook other side effects.

in Class:
org.kxml2.kdom.Node.java
at Method:

public void addChild(int index, int type, NodeInterface child) {
[...]
        if (type == ELEMENT) {
            if (!(child instanceof Element))
                throw new RuntimeException("TestElement obj expected)");

            ((Element) child).setParent(this);
        }
[...]
}

Thanks

Best wishes

Andreas

High Unicode values (>= 0x010000) not supported

Copied from Felix Meschberger's bug report at SourceForge.net: https://sourceforge.net/p/kxml/bugs/17/

Currently high Unicode values >= 0x01000 (outside the 16bit range) are not supported correctly. When parsing a character reference &#x; the high value should be stored as a surrogate pair. When serializing the surrogate pair should be stored as a single character reference &#x;.

A patch is attached to the original bug report, see link above

Quick question concerning version sources

Hey :)
Can the source downloads [.zip and .tar.gz] in https://github.com/stefanhaustein/kxml2/releases/tag/v2.4.2 be regarded as the stable sources for kxml2 version 2.4.2?
The reason I am asking is that for 2.4.2, I noticed some System.out.println usages in org.kxml2.io.KXmlParser.java (around line 760)
They made me wonder whether this is a stable version. The same println was not present in 2.3.0 .
Thanks :)

EDIT: Also, is there a javadoc jar for 2.4.2?

Did you check https://dl.bintray.com/unverbraucht/java9-fixed-jars ??????

Did you check https://dl.bintray.com/unverbraucht/java9-fixed-jars ??????

no access!!!

When you write programs, do you test them? or just to post?

Where you find org.xmlpull', name: 'xmlpull', version: '1.1.4.0????

Could not resolve org.xmlpull:xmlpull:1.1.4.0.

Possible solution:

• Declare repository providing the artifact, see the documentation at https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/declaring_repositories.html

implementation(group: 'org.xmlpull', name: 'xmlpull', version: '1.1.4.0')

Official vesion1.1.3.4d_b4_min!

Did you check you lib??? 1.1.4.0 is you dream?

KXmlParser throws top-level RuntimeException

The KXmlParser class uses RuntimeExceptions when XmlPullParser doesn't declare a checked exception. This design choice is expected.
However, the class throws the top level RuntimeException (lines: 169, 180, 1130) instead of a more specific exception, which 'forces' clients to catch a RuntimeException, hiding the ability to detect errors from other parts of the code in the process.
One simple solution could be to throw a more specific KXmlParserRuntimeException to allow clients to catch only the errors thrown by the parser class. This would be backwards compatible with any client already catching the RuntimeException.

Maven signatures

Please add PGP signatures for future releases, and if possible, existing releases. None of the artifacts are currently signed, which requires manually allowlisting the artifacts when using Gradle dependency verification.

maven-metadata.xml is out of date

This package is published on the Maven Central Repository but its maven-metadata.xml file is out of date. It only lists version 2.2.2, so tools that depend on this file to read versions won't get the right info.

Where are the new releases?

I came here from https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/net.sf.kxml/kxml2/2.3.0 via http://kxml.sourceforge.net/ redirecting to https://github.com/stefanhaustein/kxml2. I can see last commit is 2.5.0 version change, where is that released?
