Dear Friends,

I have installed xml-simple(1.0.12) in my system.

When i tried to run an sample using xml-simple, i getting error like  
this.

require ‘rubygems’  
require ‘xmlsimple’  
con = XmlSimple.xml\_in("")

testing.rb:3: undefined method `xml\_in’ for XmlSimple:Class  
(NoMethodError)

Could anyone plz suggest on the above issue?

Also in irb both rubygems and xmlsimple returns true.

> D:\>irb  
> irb(main):001:0\> require ‘rubygems’  
> =\> true  
> irb(main):002:0\> require ‘xmlsimple’  
> =\> true

Thanks in advance

Regards  
Jose

I have fixed the issue as my environmental variable points to another  
file named xmlsimple.rb. I changed the enviroment variable to fix it.  
Its working fine now
