Update: just noticed that a new method has sprung,
ifXMLElement.GetChildNodes() - and it seems designed to address the issue from this thread.
Other changes have been made to
roXMLElement too: parsing might have been improved so that additional texts don't get lost; getText() now seems to concatenate any such texts. An example is worth a thousand words:
BrightScript Debugger> x = CreateObject("roXMLElement")
BrightScript Debugger> x.parse("<xml> foo <tag> bar </tag> qux </xml>")
BrightScript Debugger> ? x.genXML(false) 'before, the output of this was not right
<xml> foo <tag> bar </tag> qux </xml>
BrightScript Debugger> ? x.getText()
foo qux
BrightScript Debugger> ? x.getChildElements()
<Component: roXMLElement>
BrightScript Debugger> ? x.getChildNodes()
foo
<Component: roXMLElement>
qux
It's good news. My hopes that somebody in RokuCo is listening are rekindled!
Unfortunately nobody thought of dropping a note here for us to know about the change nor did mention it in Release Notes.
Which firmware does the new method work in, shouldn't this be documented?
