Visual XML at Mac App Store analyse

Intéressant pour test une web api. Par contre, il est dommage que l’on ne puisse pas sélectionner un fichier depuis le disque (actuellement il faut saisir le chemin local complet) et pas d’affichage en couleur.

I saw someone write the same tool in 2003 for a completely different protocol and data structure (I think it was based on UDP). And it’s great to see the tradition continue. However, there’s a file extension and specification problem: I ran into a problem where it doesn’t open .xml XML files. Why not?

Ich habe bloß leider nicht so recht verstanden wie man es einsetzt. Für meine Zwecke war es jedenfalls nicht geeignet. Sieht aber gut aus - dafür die Sternchen.

Totaly awesome! A simple and yet totally useful tool, just like its sible VisualJSON. Thank you.

OK, it can load and format XML, that’s great… But no syntax highlight and the app cannot open XML files, really? :/

Just what I needed to debug/develop some API calls. Thanks!

You cant open files with a .xml extension using the "File->Open" menu option. I dont have a clue what extension its looking for, but .xml would seem an obvious one for an XML editor. You have to either type the name in the address bar or drag and drop the file from the finder. It formats the XML in a downright strange way. It inserts newlines before and after the content of elements, obscuring whether there really are newlines or not. And it makes it hard to read. The "File->Open Recent" menu option is always empty, and does not list the files Ive opened recently. The app isnt very fancy, and I could probably hack out one better than this in a day of work. I would expect more from a paid app.
