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

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

That's it, I'am afraid. The '$' (at least, in folder names) are not =
supported by default.
I don't know if there's a work around for that, by configuring =
something, or they cannot be used. Hopefully, Rob or any other user will =
be able to help you better with it. Can't you live without those dollar =
signs?
Btw, won't it be easier for you to develop if the .class files are not =
in SJ? Its an annoyance to keep on checking them in & out, as what is =
important is the source code (you'll get the same .class if you compile =
the code).And if you want to keep release versioning, it's more usual to =
just keep the jar files. This is just a suggestion, although independent =
of the software you use as versioning tool.
Cheers,
Albert.

  No Sweat.

  The only unusual ones are '$' , multiple '.'s (even in dir names) and =
long names: examples:


  org.eclipse.jdt.launching.localJavaApplication.SHARED_INFO.launch in =
C:\1Eclipse\GtgDiff\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.debug.core\.launches

  org.eclipse.jdt.launching.prefs in =
C:\1Eclipse\GtgDiff\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.core.runtime\.settings=


  state.dat in =
C:\1Eclipse\GtgDiff\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.core.resources\.projec=
ts\GtgDiff01\org.eclipse.jdt.core

  DirectoryCompareDialog$1.class in =
C:\1Eclipse\GtgDiff\GtgDiff01\classes\diffgui (note not under .metadata, =
and "works" in the client)

  1077868989.index in =
C:\1Eclipse\GtgDiff\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.jdt.core


  A thought - is the problem not in the .xml files? Or does the "." in =
the .metadata dir cause a problem?

  Another thought - one possible way to trouble shoot this could be if =
you could position an archive (sourcejammer-server-2.1.0.0) on the =
internet and iI could add my files this evening (+10 hours) using my =
client (sourcejammer-client-2.1.2.0.beta.1)?

    Sorry, I should have specified that those characters can provoke =

not as binary.
    So, any file with some suspectful character in its name?
