[groovy-user] Strange FIle Not Found error with XmlSlurper

[Roger Studner]

Okay, so I made a quick class:
class XmlSlurperTest extends GroovyTestCase {

public void testXmlSlurping() {
def SOME_XML = '''
<langs>
<language>Java</language>
<language>Groovy</language>
<language>JavaScript</language>
</langs>

'''
XmlSlurper parser = new XmlSlurper()
def langs = parser.parse(SOME_XML)
}
}

When I run this, I get:
java.io.FileNotFoundException: /Users/me/project/project_home/
<langs>
<language>Java</language>
<language>Groovy</language>
<language>JavaScript</language>
</langs>

You need to call parseText, not parse

parser.parse( f ) parses a file, parser.parseText( s ) parses xml in a String
