Parser dump

Hey Chris,

Hope you are well. I am coding an experiment right now that has a few nested range and list replicators. I think I am doing it correctly and things seem to be working. However, I want some verification. Is there any way to view a dump of the parsed experiment after the replicators are “expanded?”

Thanks,

Simon

Hi Simon,

Unfortunately, no. Replicator expansion happens on the fly, as the experiment is loaded. There’s no intermediate step where we could dump out the post-expansion XML.

As I note in the user manual, replicators are best avoided if possible. If you can tell me some details about what you want to accomplish, I may be able to suggest an alternative design that doesn’t use replicators.

Cheers,
Chris
