Sequence contains no elements - PayPal SOAP Response - xml-parsing

I am trying to read the value from an XML element but I always get "Sequence contains to elements" error.
I already done my research but nothing works for my problem.
I want to read the Ack and Timestamp element values in this XML
<DoDirectPaymentResponse xmlns="urn:ebay:api:PayPalAPI">
<Timestamp xmlns="urn:ebay:apis:eBLBaseComponents">2014-09-16T04:41:56Z</Timestamp>
<Ack xmlns="urn:ebay:apis:eBLBaseComponents">Success</Ack>
</DoDirectPaymentResponse>
Here's my code for reading the Ack and Timestamp values
String xmlString = #xml;
using (XmlReader reader = XmlReader.Create(new StringReader(xmlString)))
{
XDocument xdoc = XDocument.Load(reader);
var timestamp = xdoc.Descendants("Timestamp").Single();
receipt.Timestamp = timestamp.Value;
var response = xdoc.Descendants("Ack").Single();
receipt.Response = response.Value;
}
Please help me with this. Thanks a lot.

You need to use proper XNamespace to access elements in the namespace :
XDocument xdoc = XDocument.Parse(xmlString);
XNamespace ns = "urn:ebay:apis:eBLBaseComponents";
var timestamp = xdoc.Descendants(ns+"Timestamp").Single();
receipt.Timestamp = timestamp.Value;
var response = xdoc.Descendants(ns+"Ack").Single();
receipt.Response = response.Value;
Side note: you can use XDocument.Parse() to load XML from XML string content.

java swagger 3 annotations #ExampleObject from jsonfile

I'm documention one of my api with multiple examples like this:
#Operation(summary = "Create new")
#PostMapping("")
public ResponseEntity<Object> createOne(
#Parameter(description = "MyDto")
#io.swagger.v3.oas.annotations.parameters.RequestBody(
content = #Content(examples = {
#ExampleObject(name = "one", value = EXAMPLE_ONE),
#ExampleObject(name = "two", value = EXAMPLE_TWO),
#ExampleObject(name = "three", value = EXAMPLE_THREE)}
))
#RequestBody MyDTO body
) {
...
}
This works fine, though EXAMPLE_ONE is a string value. This is pretty unclear as you can see from the example below
private static final String EXAMPLE_ONE = "{\"glossary\":{\"title\":\"example glossary\",\"GlossDiv\":{\"title\":\"S\",\"GlossList\":{\"GlossEntry\":{\"ID\":\"SGML\",\"SortAs\":\"SGML\",\"GlossTerm\":\"Standard Generalized Markup Language\",\"Acronym\":\"SGML\",\"Abbrev\":\"ISO 8879:1986\",\"GlossDef\":{\"para\":\"A meta-markup language, used to create markup languages such as DocBook.\",\"GlossSeeAlso\":[\"GML\",\"XML\"]},\"GlossSee\":\"markup\"}}}}}";
I looking for a better way to provide the example. A json file would be nice, but I couldn't find anything about that.
You can use externalValue instead of value. See here
Use java text-block instead of normal quoted string
e.g. putting triple double (""")

Getting all l10n values stored in localized bundle

I'm building a FF extension, and I'm processing some xhtml for myself in order to supporn subforms loading, so I have to identify the elements with l10n attributes defined and add them the string value. Because the l10n can't be shared from main code to content scripts (because isn't a simple JSON object), I managed the situation by getting the loaded keys values and defining an "localized array bundle", like this:
lStrings = ["step_title", ........ ];
for (var i = 0; i < lStrings.length; i++) {
bundle[lStrings[i]] = this.locale(lStrings[i]);
}
The thing is, I have to write here every entry in the .properties files... SO, do you know how to access this key values? I already tryed with .toString .toLocalString and inspecting the object, but can't find the way the object to be capable of returning all the key collection.
Do you have a better idea for improvement?
var yourStringBundle = Services.strings.createBundle('chrome://blah#jetpack/content/bootstrap.properties?' + Math.random()); /* Randomize URI to work around bug 719376 */
var props = yourStringBundle.getSimpleEnumeration();
// MDN says getSimpleEnumeration returns nsIPropertyElement // https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Tech/XPCOM/Reference/Interface/nsIStringBundle#getSimpleEnumeration%28%29
while (props.hasMoreElements()) {
var prop = props.getNext();
// doing console.log(prop) says its an XPCWrappedObject but we see QueryInterface (QI), so let's try QI'ing to nsiPropertyElement
var propEl = prop.QueryInterface(Ci.nsIPropertyElement);
// doing console.log(propEl) shows the object has some fields that interest us
var key = propEl.key;
var str = propEl.value;
console.info(key, str); // there you go
}
See comments for learning. Nice quesiton. I learned more about QI from replying.

Fetching details on an entity in Breeze using Employee('1234')

I want fetch the details of a Collection in Odata services like the following URL
http://my.company.com/odata/Employee('1234')/Details
I tried with the following code to do so. Not sure whether fromEntityKey is the right thing to do or anything else.
manager = new breeze.EntityManager(collectionData.serviceName);
var empType = manager.metadataStore.getEntityType("Employees");
var entityKey = new EntityKey(empType, '1234');
var query = EntityQuery.fromEntityKey(entityKey);
But it gives me an error "Be sure to execute a query or call fetchMetadata first."
I also tried that from this link. But I'm still getting the same.
Can any one help me on this?
You can't use manager.metadataSote.getEntityType("Employees") until metadata has been retrieved from the server. By default this occurs during the first query operation, but your code is attempting to use the metadata before it has been retrieved.
Also, I think that you are confusing the name of your resource "Employees" with the type of the instances returned by your resource, probably "Employee". I would also check whether your key's datatype is numeric or a string. The example below assume its numeric (unlike your example where the datatype of the key is presumably a string because you are quoting it).
So you have two approaches, either force the metadata to be fetched before you compose your query, like this:
manager = new breeze.EntityManager(serviceName);
manager.fetchMetadata().then(function () {
var empType = manager.metadataStore.getEntityType("Employee");
var entityKey = new EntityKey(empType, 1);
var query = EntityQuery.fromEntityKey(entityKey);
// if you want to also see the queries details
query = query.expand("Details");
return manager.executeQuery(query);
}).then(function (data) {
var results = data.results;
ok(results.length === 1, "should have returned a single record");
var emp = results[0];
));
or if you know the string name of the 'key' ("Id" in the example below) field, use it directly
manager = new breeze.EntityManager(serviceName);
var query = EntityQuery.from("Employees")
.where("Id", "==", 1)
.expand("Details");
manager.executeQuery(query).then(function(data) {
var results = data.results;
var emp = results[0];
});

How to parse multiple nodes of html using HtmlAgilityPack?

I'd appreciate if someone could help! I'm trying to parse the following page of Groupon website http://www.groupon.com/browse/chicago?category=activities-and-nightlife
var webGet = new HtmlWeb();
var deal1 = webGet.Load("http://www.groupon.com/browse/chicago?category=activities-and-nightlife");
I want to get the whole block of each Deal(i.e. offer for discount)
HtmlNodeCollection content_block = deal1.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//div[#class = 'deal-list-tile grid_5_third']");
Then out of each block i want to get title, company name, location and price.
foreach(HtmlNode node in content_block)
{
string title2 = node.SelectSingleNode("//div[#class = 'deal-title js-permalink']").InnerText;
string country2 = node.SelectSingleNode("//p[#class = 'merchant-name']").InnerText;
string location2 = node.SelectSingleNode("//p[#class = 'location']").InnerText;
string price2 = node.SelectSingleNode("//div[#class = 'price']/span").InnerText;
}
Here i get confused, i need to write all the information about deals into
DbSet<Deal> Deals , but even if i try to display the content as ViewBag.Message = title + country + location + price; i get System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object in the line with content_block.
What am i doing wrong =(
Thanks in advance!
The problem appears to be that the selectnodes returns nothing or null when no nodes are found instead of an empty collection. so this means you should probably wrap if (content_block != null) { around your code block above.

Linq query not working on XML string

i have a web service which returns xml data as string. i am trying to apply linq on xml string which is retunred by the service.
Lets say the xml stirng is some thing like.
string str = "<root xmlns=\"http://tempuri.org/Count.xsd\"> <child> <subchild1>1</subchild1><subchild2>1</subchild2><subchild3>1</subchild3></child></root>";
Below is the c# code i am using.
XDocument xdoc = XDocument.Parse(str);
var item = xdoc.Element("root").Element("child").Element("subchild1");
but the above query is always returning null.
can any one correct me what is wrong in above peace of code.
This solved my problem.
XNamespace xnp = xdoc.Root.GetDefaultNamespace();
var item = xdoc.Element(xnp + "root").Element(xnp + "child").Element(xnp + "subchild1").Value;
