xmlCreateFile and xmlSaveFile

[piras]

Hello,

I am trying to save some stuff with these functions.

They are not returning errors but the file is not getting saved.

I can call xmlNodeGetAttributes on the node Im trying to save and it works as expected.

function saveRamps()
outputDebugString("saveRamps()", 0)
local xml = xmlCreateFile("savedRamps.xml", "ramps")
local rampXml
if not xml then outputConsole("Couldnt CREATE xml file.", 0) end --<<=== This seems to work OK.
 
for rampName,rampTabElement in pairs(win.ramps) do
if type(rampTabElement) == "table" and rampTabElement.type == "tab" then
		rampXml = xmlCreateChild(xml, rampName)
xmlNodeSetAttribute(rampXml, "modelId", rampTabElement.modelIdEdit:getValueAsString())
xmlNodeSetAttribute(rampXml, "topAngle", rampTabElement.topAngleEdit:getValueAsString())
xmlNodeSetAttribute(rampXml, "radius", rampTabElement.radiusEdit:getValueAsString())
xmlNodeSetAttribute(rampXml, "resolution", rampTabElement.resolutionEdit:getValueAsString())
xmlNodeSetAttribute(rampXml, "length", rampTabElement.lengthEdit:getValueAsString())
 
		tableOut(xmlNodeGetAttributes(rampXml)) --<=== This works OK, everything looks fine.
end
end
 
if not xmlSaveFile(xml) then outputConsole("Couldnt SAVE xml file.", 0) end --<=== This seems to work OK.
end

I can load an xml file with xmlLoadFile.

Have I done something wrong like not called a function before calling xmlSaveFile, or something ...

By the way this was on a client side script.

I managed to get around it, by sending all the data to the server with triggerServerEvent() and use the xml functions from the server side and they work from the server side.

notice your files on client-side script will be created in

MTA\mods\deathmatch\resources\res_name\

not in

MTA\server\mods\deathmatch\resources\res_name\

when i was making xml i was looking it automatically in server files ;/

Good man varez,

I was also looking in /server/...

I looked in the other directory, and there were the files...
