Xml parsing failing with error in DSDerivation

Hi,

I am trying to parse a xml but it is failing with error
"is not a valid property list: Error parsing list for property "DSDescription"
Error parsing list for property "DSDisplayWidth"
Error parsing list for property "DSSQLType"
Error parsing list for property "DSSQLPrecision"
Error parsing list for property "DSDerivation"

The Tag Names in my xml are like Abc.Id, Abc.Desc, Abc.Phase and i am suspecting this is causing issue because when i change the tag names to Abc_Id, Abc_Desc, Abc_Phase it parses correctly.

Is there any limitation on DS 8.0.1 where it can not parse xmls having "." in its tag names ?

Thanks in advance...!

That's a question you'd need to ask your official support provider. Perhaps that's something that has been patched.

Thanks craig,

We are also checking with IBM support but was making sure if anyone else has faced the same issue earlier so that i can directly to the point.

Thanks for your help...!

Let us know what you find out... and maybe someone will show up who knows the answer in the meantime.
