Re: [SourceJammer-users] Error INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: An invalid or illegal XML character is specified

[Albert M. <amo...@ev...>]

Yes, SJ can manage binary files.
Sorry, I should have specified that those characters can provoke =
problems if they are in the file/folder name. Inside a file, binary =
chars may generate errors only if the file has been uploaded as text, =
not as binary.
So, any file with some suspectful character in its name?

Albert.

  Some depth into .metadata (ie =
.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.core.resources\.projects\GtgDiff01) there =
is a file .markers which is binary, and thus contains numerous strange =
characters. Is SourceJammer unable to manage such files?

      Hi

      I am a first time user. I have quickly scanned the manuals, FAQ =
and mail lists.

      The symptom of the problem I have is

      Error INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: An invalid or illegal XML character =
is specified


      I have downloaded and installed (on Windows PCs running XP pro):

        a.. sourcejammer-client-2.1.2.0.beta.1.gpl.zip (client PC, =
incidently with JDK 1.5)

        b.. sourcejammer-server-2.1.0.0.gpl.zip (server on a server PC)

        c.. j2sdk-1_4_2_04-windows-i586-p.exe=20
        d.. jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28.exe

      I used the client to "Add File(s)" to the archive. In this case I =
used a complete eclipse project for testing purposes (Note - I am not =
using the eclipse sourcejammer plugin). All the files seem to be added =
successfully (ie I got "# Added project: .metadata" "# Added file: =
.lock" (which is in the .metadata dir), etc). Then, on the client,  when =
I click for example on ".metadata" in the Projects dir tree, I get the =
above error. No archived files are displayed for ".metadata" in the =
Files table display. However, under "src" there are the ".java" files =
archived correctly.
