Error parsing XML using TXMLDocument

[@nton]

I try to open an XML file generated by STARUML to find some information stored inside.
(the file is attached)

I followed the XML tutorial from the WIKI and came up with the following code (abbreviated):


uses laz2_XMLRead, laz2_DOM

var
   BCMDocument : TXMLDocument;
   
     try
         ReadXMLFile(BCMDocument, edtBCMBestand.Text);
         {Do Something}
     finally
        BCMDocument.Free;
     end;

the statement: ReadXMLFile(BCMDocument, edtBCMBestand.Text); gives the following error:

In 'file:///C:/ TestStarUMLProject.uml' (Line 39 Pos 65) Invalid character.

The file opens fine in Firefox, Explorer and in the lazarus IDE.
Other tools seem not to have any problems with this file.

I can't see any invalid characters

Am I missing something, is it a Bug?

Please Help!

Update your lazarus, it works in recent revision.

Currently I am using v0.9.30.4 with fpc 2.6.0. On Windows XP.
Isn't that the latest?

[Leledumbo]

I mean, daily snapshot/svn version.

Perhaps the latest released "stable" version. Unfortunately it's a long way behind with bug fixes etc.

While a new Lazarus release is being worked on, I'd suggest downloading and installing a Lazarus + fpc 2.6.1 win32 Daily Snapshot (see link to left)

Thanks Leledumbo and BigChimp!

It works!

Lazarus is also a lot faster (compliments!)
