Parent task is always null when reading a Primavera XER file
Multi platform library to read and write schedule data
Brought to you by:

I'm using the ruby mpxj gem so that users can import their schedules from XER and MPP files to our rails based app. We don't have any problems with reading Microsoft Project(.mpp) files, but the Primavera(.XER) files are not being imported correctly.
It looks like the parent-child task relationship is broken, and for each task, the parent task is always null. I can send you a copy of the XER file if you need it. Thank you!
If you could send me the XER file that would be great. If it's not sensitive you can atach it to this ticket, otherwise mail it to me a jon.iles@bcs.org.uk.
I've sent you an email.
I believe I've fixed this issue. I will upload a new version of the MPXJ gem today which will conatin the fix.
