Hello Alessandra,
That is, indeed, odd behavior. What code is producing this xml file?

Subject: xml behavior
Hi all,
I have a stupid question about xml, that somebody with some more knowledge of the language can answer very quickly I think. In the compact.xml file that I'm producing (automatically) upon alignment I found some lines like, for instance:
<millepede_constant name="12304" value="0.0 - -0.000625" />
I'm wondering how xml treats the two double - signs. I cannot see any complain anywhere but I actually do not know how this string is converted into a number.
Is this an acceptable syntax, to get as a result for value = 0.000625 ?
(I would anyhow be tempted for the moment to replace every "- -" string with a "+", by hand).
Thanks, cheers
Alessandra
