POReading from the nasa feed rss file throws SAXException
text
Body
copied!<p>I am trying to use the simple-framework in android to read a file which I take from the nasa feed. The nasa file is here: <a href="http://www.nasa.gov/rss/dyn/image_of_the_day.rss" rel="nofollow">http://www.nasa.gov/rss/dyn/image_of_the_day.rss</a></p> <p>The way I go around this is by using the following code:</p> <pre><code>Serializer serialezr = new Persister(); String file_path = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath() + "/nasa"; try{ File dir = new File(file_path); if(!dir.exists()) { dir.mkdirs(); } File nasa = new File(file_path,filename); if(nasa.exists()) { nasa.delete(); } nasa.createNewFile(); source = new File(file_path + "/" + filename); } catch(Exception e) { StringWriter sw = new StringWriter(); PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(sw); e.printStackTrace(pw); view.setText(sw.toString() + "here"); } </code></pre> <p>The above code creates the nasa.xml file in a directory which I will later use</p> <pre><code> DefaultHttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient(); HttpGet httpget = new HttpGet("http://www.nasa.gov/rss/dyn/image_of_the_day.rss"); HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httpget); HttpEntity ht = response.getEntity(); BufferedHttpEntity buf = new BufferedHttpEntity(ht); InputStream is = buf.getContent(); BufferedReader r = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is)); StringBuilder total = new StringBuilder(); String line; while ((line = r.readLine()) != null) { total.append(line + "\n"); } FileUtils.writeStringToFile(source,total.toString()); </code></pre> <p>The above code actually gets the file from their website using a DefaultHttpClient.</p> <p>"Googling" this I have discovered that the xml file might not be written properly? Looking at the xml file from nasa I cannot see any "<>" tags which appeared to be the most common error that throws this exception. </p> <p><strong>UPDATES</strong></p> <ul> <li>Instead of using BufferedReader and appending a line after a line I have used InputStreamReader to read each character. It runs out of memory</li> <li>Looks like if I take out the ImageView from the layout everything works even the xml parsing.</li> </ul>
