Programming Kotlin - XML Builder output not right (page 265)

The code given in the book for XMLBuilder DLS returns the below output - not the one given in the book:

Eich

Gosling

Matz

The below else part of the toString method -

“”"$indent<$name$attributesValues>
|${children.joinToString("\n") { it.toString(indentation + DEPTH) }}
|$indent</$name>""".trimMargin()

has to be changed a bit, with joinToString taking a prefix of a new line (\n) along with the new line separator, like below -

“”"$indent<$name$attributesValues>
|${children.joinToString("\n")("\n") { it.toString(indentation + DEPTH) }}
|$indent</$name>""".trimMargin()

To get the necessary output:

Eich Gosling Matz

Please correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks.

Hi Eich,

Thank you for the note. I apologize, looks like the xml output was suppressed and I am not able to see the output that you are seeing.

I just ran the code and it seems to produced the desired output without the extra argument.

Regards,

Venkat
