missing elements in XML when loading into dataset with schema

E

Etai Margolin

Hi,

The following works with NETCF 1.1 & SP1, but not in SP2:

I'm creating a dataset with a schema and then loading an
XML document (which matches the schema) into it. With
NETCF 1.1 SP2, the dataset is always missing certain
elements. I've narrowed it down to a minimal schema and
XML but always the same element is missing.

here are the relevant pieces of code:

DataSet dsTaskData = new DataSet();
dsTaskData.ReadXmlSchema(@"\Schema.xml");
StringReader sr = new StringReader(txtInput.Text);
XmlReader rdr = new XmlTextReader(sr);
dsTaskData.ReadXml(rdr);

-----------
The Schema:
-----------
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:msdata="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-msdata">
<xsd:complexType name="TTask">
<xsd:all>
<xsd:element name="taskId"
type="xsd:string" minOccurs="0"/>
<xsd:element name="taskStatus"
type="xsd:int" minOccurs="0"/>
</xsd:all>
</xsd:complexType>
<xsd:element name="NewDataSet"
msdata:IsDataSet="true">
<xsd:complexType>
<xsd:choice maxOccurs="unbounded">
<xsd:element name="TTask"
type="TTask" />
</xsd:choice>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>
</xsd:schema>


--------------
The input XML:
--------------
<TTask>
<taskId>1</taskId>
<taskStatus>1</taskStatus>
</TTask>

---------------------
The Dataset.GetXml():
---------------------
<NewDataSet>
<TTask>
<taskId>1</taskId>
</TTask>
</NewDataSet>


As you can see, the missing element is of type int. I've
also tried changing it to string but get the same result.

Any ideas, anyone?

Just a small addition to Mark's replay...

The workaround would be to add DataSet element as follows:

<DataSet>
<TTask>
<taskId>1</taskId>
<taskStatus>1</taskStatus>
</TTask>
</DataSet>

The XML saved from DataSet would have it automatically.

Thanks Ilya, this solved it. Unfortunately it only got me as far as the next
bug :-(

What happens now is (using the same schema):

XML:
-------
<NewDataSet>
<TTask>
<taskId>1</taskId>
<taskStatus>1</taskStatus>
<completion>
<invoice/>
<payment/>
<completionDetails/>
</completion>
</TTask>
</NewDataSet>

Dataset.GetXml() returns:
-------------------------------
<NewDataSet>
<TTask>
<taskId>1</taskId>
<taskStatus>1</taskStatus>
</TTask>
</NewDataSet>

This was also tested with SP3Beta and returns a valid XML:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
<NewDataSet>
<TTask>
<taskId>1</taskId>
<taskStatus>1</taskStatus>
<completion>
<invoice />
<payment />
<completionDetails />
</completion>
</TTask>
</NewDataSet>


Do you know of a workaround to get this to work with SP2 as well?

Thanks,

Etai.

Are you sure you're using the same schema and not using inference?

If you do, SP2 result is correct and matching desktop and SP3.

You see, nothing besides table TTask with columns taskID and taskStatus are
in the schema and whatever's is not on it is ignored.



If you going to change the schema, few tips:



1. Use related tables, not nested tables.

2. Use unique not null primary/foreign keys in _every_ table.

3. Map all columns as attribute except for primary/foreign key column.



Also, avoid handcrafting the XML. Use VS desktop tools to enter test data or
write a program to do that.



Best regards,



Ilya

I see... That's another known bug.

Workaround is simple - add some data to your tables.
It makes little sense to have rows with all columns set to NULL.

Since you have relations, it's simply prohibited as all NULL rows are
indistinguishable and it would be impossible to find related rows.
You have to have a not null primary key or your database will not work. As
soon as you change that, it would load just fine.

Best regards.

1. Use related tables, not nested tables.

2. Use unique not null primary/foreign keys in _every_ table.

3. Map all columns as attribute except for primary/foreign key column.



Also, avoid handcrafting the XML. Use VS desktop tools to enter test

data
or
write a program to do that.

Thanks Ilya, this solved it. Unfortunately it only got me as far as the
next
bug :-(

What happens now is (using the same schema):

XML:
-------
<NewDataSet>
<TTask>
<taskId>1</taskId>
<taskStatus>1</taskStatus>
<completion>
<invoice/>
<payment/>
<completionDetails/>
</completion>
</TTask>
</NewDataSet>

Dataset.GetXml() returns:
-------------------------------
<NewDataSet>
<TTask>
<taskId>1</taskId>
<taskStatus>1</taskStatus>
</TTask>
</NewDataSet>

This was also tested with SP3Beta and returns a valid XML:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
<NewDataSet>
<TTask>
<taskId>1</taskId>
<taskStatus>1</taskStatus>
<completion>
<invoice />
<payment />
<completionDetails />
</completion>
</TTask>
</NewDataSet>


Do you know of a workaround to get this to work with SP2 as well?

Thanks,

Etai.






Just a small addition to Mark's replay...

The workaround would be to add DataSet element as follows:

<DataSet>
<TTask>
<taskId>1</taskId>
<taskStatus>1</taskStatus>
</TTask>
</DataSet>

The XML saved from DataSet would have it automatically.

Ilya
