[Python-au] String Problem

[Richard Colley]

Is __getElementValue() case sensitive?  If so, you have a mismatch in
oTimeStamp & oTimestamp.

Hi all im busy parsing an Order xml file and building an SQL string but keep
getting this error only on the deliveryDate

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#74>", line 1, in ?
    mb.delegateMessage()
  File "C:/BIS/classes\MessageBroker.py", line 62, in delegateMessage
    op.processOrders()
  File "C:/BIS/classes\OrderProcessor.py", line 56, in processOrders
    #vals = vals + self.__getElementValue(order,'deliveryDate') + ","
TypeError: coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, NoneType found

Heres a sample of the xml

<instructions>Deliver before 7.00am</instructions> <jobNo>R5555</jobNo>
<costCentre>Framing</costCentre> <loadNo>2222X</loadNo>
<orderDate>16/01/2003</orderDate> <deliveryDate>20/01/2003</deliveryDate>
<oTimestamp>16/01/2003 14:00:25</oTimestamp>


biOrderId = self.__getElementValue(order,'biOrderId')
vals = biOrderId + ","
vals = vals + self.__getElementValue(order,'orderId') + "," vals = vals +
self.__getElementValue(order,'invoiceAddress') + "," vals = vals +
self.__getElementValue(order,'deliveryAddress') + "," vals = vals +
self.__getElementValue(order,'instructions') + "," vals = vals +
self.__getElementValue(order,'jobNo') + "," vals = vals +
self.__getElementValue(order,'costCentre') + "," vals = vals +
self.__getElementValue(order,'loadNo') + "," vals = vals +
self.__getElementValue(order,'orderDate') + "," vals = vals +
self.__getElementValue(order,'deliveryDate') + "," vals = vals +
self.__getElementValue(order,'oTimeStamp') + "," print vals
** do not fear sql characters for field wraps will come later :-)

any ideas would be nice

tks

Graeme
