LuaXml works fine with Lua standalone programs/scripts; but something weird occurs when used from within Ctx (e.g. a .xml file can be read successfully from standalone Lua with LuaXml lib; but the same code doesn't give the desired result when used in combination with Ctx; a problem might be version mismatch - I'm still using both Lua 5.1 and 5.2 including 3rd party modules in my scripts - but my latest tests with Ctx & LuaXml should have avoid this; or namespace mismatch...?). Anyway, does native Ctx XML API (has it its own namespace, like 'context.xml'?) provide a function to load a .xml file and to return its XML tree as a table, with nodes (as a table with node attributes as table members) in a proper sequence... something like LuaXml's 'xml.load("file.xml")' does? Or how to achieve this in a best way under Ctx: XML file -> Lua table/tree? Best regards, Lukas -- Ing.

It all depends on what kin dof table you want (if the content is an indexed table and attributes keys then you have the problem that the element cannot be a key too as it can clash) .. anyway, it's no big deal to provide a stupid table, so I can provide something because after all the loaded xml file is a table already. local x = xml.load("file.xml") local t = xml.totable(x) where x is an index/hash mix plus _tag, _type and _namespace fields as well (after all I assume that you need to know that too). (btw, I bet that you can do what you want with the existing functionality as well, so there is not much benefit in such a table) Probably in the next upload, Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl ----------------------------------------------------------------- ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread
