writing xml files with proXML
Mar 12th, 2009, 10:17am  
hi,
I downloaded proXML, but ran into some problems writing files to the disk. I was getting this error with some of my sketches:
You cannot write to this destination. Make sure destionation is a valid path. Working inside the processing environment (MacOSX) I got rid of this by deleting the data folder and letting the sketch create a new data folder. from within the eclipse environment this did not work and I keep getting the same error. "saveStrings" otoh works allright. Not sure what to do. Could I use saveStrings instead of saveElement?
Thanks for your help,
marius.

hmm, I looked into the source code of XMLInOut.java. It seems that the "if (!pApplet.online)" statement returns false and therefor XMLInOut does not try to create a new file and thus throws an error.
If the file exists, then I also can write to it, so I guess I can live with that...
marius.
