latest patched binaries and SVN dump of 23rd Dec 20 -- combination not working

[Wasilios Goutas]

Hello Eckard,

I downloaded the latest Moritz snapshot from 23rd Dec 20 and the patched binaries

                        xml2abc Version 2.1.0
        generation of nassi shneiderman diagrams for source-codes
                Copyright (C) 2004-2020 by Eckard Klotz
               Build date: Dec 23 2020 , time: 13:05:37
               Build as : 64 bit application

but when using this combination all files been processed by abc2xml create ..._c_code.xml files are 32Byte long and contain the same content

<Content L="1" C="1"></Content>

Even when making use of the old binaries from June 20 I get the same:( It seems there is some missconfiguration in oneof the LangPack files.
I will try to diff them against the old version and give you feedback

Hello Wasili.

Actually XML files ending with _code.xml should only be created as a debugging output if the following configuration files contain a command for doing this.
[Moritz_Root]\LangPack\ansi_c\a2x\abc2xml_Process_ansi_c_only.xml
[Moritz_Root]\LangPack\ansi_c\a2x\abc2xml_Process_ansi_cpp.xml
* The one that is really important for you depends on the one you mention in the last line of the configuration file used to list the files and/or folders to parse.

Please search for the following lines

  <Source>
   <!-- create an additional xml-output for debuging purposes -->
   <SavePartResult            value="No" attachment="_code.xml"/>

The attribute value of the node SavePartResult should be "No" to suppress the output of this files.

• However actually this files should contain the XML representation of the pure c-code but without comments.
• In addition you should get the normal XML files ending with _c.xml in the xml destination folder.
• Are this files empty also?

I used the same binary you mention for the implementation of the User Extension of the C/Cpp Grammar for Inline-Assembler without problems.

• May be your problem is solved once you use the files I have attached there.

I will not be able to give you more tips without knowing the batch-file you use to call the binaries and the configuration file you use wile calling abc2xml. The XML files mentioned above may be helpful also.

I wish you a happy new year and please stay well and healthy,
Eckard.

PS.: Some seconds ago I have uploaded a new SVN archive that contains all changes I have implemented in the last days as result of our discussions.
You will find it here.
