我将这个XML数据放在一个字符串中:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<class name="C" kind ="concrete">
<inheritance>
<from name="A" privacy="public" />
<from name="B" privacy="public" />
</inheritance>
<private>
<methods>
<method name="C" type="C" scope="instance">
<arguments></arguments>
</methods>
</private>
</class>
我想使用xpath找到一些元素。到目前为止,这是我的代码:
utf8_parser = etree.XMLParser(encoding='utf-8')
root = etree.fromstring(string.encode('utf-8'), parser=utf8_parser)
somelist = root.findall(xpathString)
我收到了这个错误:
root = etree.fromstring(stringOutput.string.encode('utf-8'), parser=utf8_parser)

我认为问题可能在于字符串中的双引号。可能吗?如何使用xpath查找元素的正确代码如何?
答案 0 :(得分:2)
分隔属性值的双引号完全没问题,但缺少结束标记的method
元素却没有。以下是您修复的XML格式良好:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<class name="C" kind ="concrete">
<inheritance>
<from name="A" privacy="public" />
<from name="B" privacy="public" />
</inheritance>
<private>
<methods>
<method name="C" type="C" scope="instance">
<arguments></arguments>
</method>
</methods>
</private>
</class>
