[J2EE Developer for Etq Inc]

Dear sir,

I have a problem in DbUnit ,i'd like to help me to fix this problem as soon as possible.

I don't know if this problem take it in consider in DbUnit when you developed it .

When i use the DbUnit at the first time,The problem if the column attribute name in Flat XML file for any table contain "$" like the example below (which is the dataSet flat xml file exported from group_memebrs table using dbUnit) the compare or exporte all will be field becuase the "$" will make the XML File parser corrupted.

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<dataset>
<GROUP_MEMBERS USER_ID="58" MEMBER_USER_ID="11" ETQ$RECORD_ORDER="2"/>
<GROUP_MEMBERS USER_ID="58" MEMBER_USER_ID="556" ETQ$RECORD_ORDER="0"/>
<GROUP_MEMBERS USER_ID="58" MEMBER_USER_ID="557" ETQ$RECORD_ORDER="1"/>
<GROUP_MEMBERS USER_ID="50" MEMBER_USER_ID="11" ETQ$RECORD_ORDER="0"/>
<GROUP_MEMBERS USER_ID="58" MEMBER_USER_ID="11" ETQ$RECORD_ORDER="2"/>
<GROUP_MEMBERS USER_ID="58" MEMBER_USER_ID="556" ETQ$RECORD_ORDER="0"/>
<GROUP_MEMBERS USER_ID="58" MEMBER_USER_ID="557" ETQ$RECORD_ORDER="1"/>
<GROUP_MEMBERS USER_ID="70" MEMBER_USER_ID="70" ETQ$RECORD_ORDER="2"/>
<GROUP_MEMBERS USER_ID="70" MEMBER_USER_ID="71" ETQ$RECORD_ORDER="0"/>
<GROUP_MEMBERS USER_ID="70" MEMBER_USER_ID="545" ETQ$RECORD_ORDER="1"/>
<GROUP_MEMBERS USER_ID="501" MEMBER_USER_ID="153" ETQ$RECORD_ORDER="2"/>
<GROUP_MEMBERS USER_ID="501" MEMBER_USER_ID="500" ETQ$RECORD_ORDER="0"/>
<GROUP_MEMBERS USER_ID="501" MEMBER_USER_ID="502" ETQ$RECORD_ORDER="1"/>
<GROUP_MEMBERS USER_ID="501" MEMBER_USER_ID="548" ETQ$RECORD_ORDER="3"/>
</dataset>

Please if you can test and make the same senario and see what happend.

i'd like to help me how can i fix this problem .. how can deal with this kind of character , theres any solution in DbUnit can replace this character in flat xml file when it exported, or make DbUnit ignore this character in any operation such as export or insert or comparing, or other solutions.

Your Cooperation in this matter will be highly appreciated.

Kind Regards

Flat XML File Contain $ for attaribute name

I suggest to use some other form of dataset instead of FlatXml... like CSV which should not be affected by the naming problem

A solution would be the one discussed in bug #2089394 (see http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2089394&group_id=47439&atid=449491\). It discusses special character handling in XML attributes where the column name (= XML attrib name) contains at least one special character.

I will set this issue to pending for now.

Please let me know if this is okay for you.

Regards,
mat
