[FSX] BglComp.exe: XML Parse Error?

Hey,

Me again, I have come across an error I have not seen before. Perhaps someone could shed some light.

No - not seen that one

This will compile. Respect case-sensitive'ness + close the airport-tag.

Thanks Peter, something so simple...

Any time the compiler gives a error always look for the following section in the first part of the error.

INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR: #C2034: XML Parse Fatal Error (line, column, error)

ERROR: 2, 21,

#C2034 is a MS code but look at the next line

ERROR: 2 is the line number and 21 is the column.

If you use a freeware XML editor such as Cooktop 2.5 then in the Edit drop down menu "Goto Line" and put in number 2

the XML editor will take you to the exact line that has the problem.

I have XML files with over 100,000 lines of code. One slip of a > character or anything and I would be looking for errors all day.

Goto Line feature is a must when XML files are very large.
