I'm getting the following message when I run my Perl script that uses
the XML::Writer module:
"Processing instruction target begins with 'xml' at
.../makeconf/LW/LWTest.pm line 75"
The pi() statement is almost identical to the example for the module
at cpan.org. In fact, I tried replacing my use with the example and
got the same result. Can anyone tell me why I'm getting this warning,
even though I'm getting the correct output?
Here is the code snippet where I'm using XML::Writer:
###BEGIN SNIP
my $output = new IO::File(">$out _file_path");
my $writer = new XML::Writer( OUTPUT => $output, DATA_MODE => 1,
DATA_INDENT => 4 );
$writer->xmlDecl( 'ISO-8859-1', 'yes' );
$writer->pi('xml-stylesheet', 'type="text/xsl" href="LW_Test.x sl"');
#line 75
$writer->startTag( 'testcase' );
$writer->dataElement( "name", $test_case_name );
$writer->dataElement( "timestamp" , $test_case_time stamp);
$writer->dataElement( "overview", $test_case_over view);
foreach(@condit ions) {
my $cond_id = LW::TestConditi on->getConditionID ($_);
my $cond_comp = LW::TestConditi on->getConditionCo mp($_);
my $cond_pass_fail = LW::TestConditi on->getConditionPa ssFail($_);
my $cond_pass_desc = LW::TestConditi on->getConditionDe sc($_);
my $cond_err_msg = LW::TestConditi on->getConditionEr rMsg($_);
$writer->startTag( 'condition', 'id' => $cond_id,
'completed' => $cond_comp,
'pass_fail' => $cond_pass_fail );
$writer->dataElement( "descriptio n", $cond_pass_desc );
$writer->dataElement( "err_msg", $cond_err_msg);
$writer->endTag( 'condition' );
}
$writer->endTag( 'testcase' );
###END SNIP
The output file looks like this (which is what I wanted):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" standalone="yes "?>
<?xml-stylesheet href="style.css " type="text/css"?>
<testcase>
<name>my test case</name>
<timestamp>Tu e Sep 30 11:19:55 2003</timestamp>
<overview>tex t containing many wise and wonderful
things</overview>
<condition id="1" completed="yes" pass_fail="pass ">
<description>th is is the description for condition
1</description>
<err_msg>none </err_msg>
</condition>
<condition id="2" completed="no" pass_fail="fail ">
<description>th is is the description for condition

Because the XML-Writer module is getting a little old, and I haven't
been maintaining it actively. This recommendation http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-stylesheet/
did not exist (or at least, wasn't a REC) when I wrote the module, and
the XML spec reserves PI's starting with "xml". I seem to remember
that there was a way to disable this kind of strict checking, but I
haven't look at the code for a few years.
All the best,
David

David,
Thanks for responding.
According to the documentation, strict checking can be turned off by
using "UNSAFE" as follows:
my $writer = new XML::Writer( OUTPUT => $output, DATA_MODE => 1,
DATA_INDENT => 4, UNSAFE => 1);
I didn't quite understand your statement, though:
... This recommendation
http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-stylesheet/
did not exist (or at least, wasn't a REC) when I wrote the module, and the XML spec reserves PI's starting with "xml".
This seems odd to me because one of the examples in the documentation
for XML::Writer at cpan.org actually uses xml-stylesheet to
demonstrate the use of pi(). Maybe I'm just naive, but it seems like
this example would not have been used if xml-stylesheet was
incompatible with XML::Writer->pi();
One final thought: assuming that the module is a little out of date,
have you given any thought to another revision? It's such a useful
tool, I think that it would be a great service to keep it up to date.
Thanks again for your response.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
