android read xml error: not well-formed (invalid token)

when used android to read local XML file, it show show up error:

 

org.apache.harmony.xml.ExpatParser$ParseException: At line 1, column 0: not well-formed (invalid token)

 

 

while, the xml file is located at res/xml/myfile.xml

 

then the solution is that, change the file path, put the xml file under res/raw

so the xml file now is located at res/raw/myfile.xml

 

now the program read the file run smoothly.

 

here is my code:

private InputStream is; is = this.getResources().openRawResource(R.raw.myfile); try { Log.e("xxx","read file stream"+is.available()); Log.e("xxx","prepar to read xml"); /* Get a SAXParser from the SAXPArserFactory. */ SAXParserFactory spf = SAXParserFactory.newInstance(); SAXParser sp = spf.newSAXParser(); /* Get the XMLReader of the SAXParser we created. */ XMLReader xr = sp.getXMLReader(); /* Create a new ContentHandler and apply it to the XML-Reader*/ ExampleHandler myExampleHandler = new ExampleHandler(); xr.setContentHandler(myExampleHandler); /* Parse the xml-data from our URL. */ xr.parse(new InputSource(is)); /* Parsing has finished. */ /* Our ExampleHandler now provides the parsed data to us. */ ParsedExampleDataSet parsedExampleDataSet = myExampleHandler.getParsedData(); /* Set the result to be displayed in our GUI. */ tv.setText(parsedExampleDataSet.toString()); } catch (Exception e) { /* Display any Error to the GUI. */ tv.setText("Error: " + e.getMessage()); Log.e(MY_DEBUG_TAG, "WeatherQueryError", e); }
