Subject: rss->parsefile
On two different platforms (Debian-woody and Solaris 5.8) the rss->parsefile cannot read a file generated by rss->save The error on the Debian machine is similiar, but here is the one from the Solaris machine: undefined entity at line 18, column 57, byte 662 at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/sun4-solaris/XML/Parser.pm line 168 The version is RSS.pm,v 1.22 2003/02/20 19:19:07 kellan Exp and I can reproduce the error with this much code: #!/usr/bin/perl -w use XML::RSS; my $rss = new XML::RSS; $rss->parsefile( 'foo.rdf' ); Attached is the file produced by XML::RSS which can be read by newstickers, but not XML::RSS itself. -Lars

Well most XML parsers would choke on the attached file. It has an entity reference (&slash;) that is invalid in XML. This is related to bug #2472 (http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bug.html?id=2472) that XML::RSS encoding is fundamentally broken. (it was quick hack, added after several years of not having any) In the meantime... I'm not sure I have a great suggestion. I'll try to get you an update soon.

Has there been any update to this? I ran into a similar problem, where I add an item using add_item but fixed up with HTML::Entities::encode_entities. The output to disk has all the entities encoded properly. I then read it back in with parse_file, no problem. If I save it again, most of the entities are unencoded such that I can no longer read it back in with parse_file. Thanks, Sean

Hi Sean, I might have fixed this (by fixing something else) a few releases ago. If not, can you provide a test case we can include in the test suite? - ask

This bug has been inactive for quite a while, and cannot be reproduced with a modern version of XML::RSS. (at least not with ->{encoding} enabled.). Resolving. Regards, Shlomi Fish
