Hi,
Yes, using parseXML instead of XMLParser is a correct approach in OWL (Odoo Web Library) to avoid potential null type errors. Odoo 17 documentation suggests the use of parseXML for parsing XML safely, which helps in preventing issues that may arise from using XMLParser directly.
```import { parseXML } from "@web/core/utils/xml";
// Example function to parse XML
function createView(xmlString) {
const xmlDoc = parseXML(xmlString);
if (xmlDoc) {
// Proceed with further processing of xmlDoc
} else {
console.error("Failed to parse XML");
}
}
// Sample XML string
const xmlString = `<view>
<field name="name"/>
<field name="description"/>
</view>`;
// Call the function with the XML string
createView(xmlString);
```This
approach ensures that the XML is parsed safely, handling potential
errors gracefully, and maintaining compatibility with OWL's
architecture. By using parseXML, you reduce the risk of encountering null type errors that might occur with XMLParser.
Hope it helps
