Build Identifier: 20110615-0604

Whenever I pass a graph file into DotGraph constructor, the XML parser gives the following error message.
  File file = new File("./sample.graph");
  DotGraph graph = new DotGraph(file, parent, SWT.NONE);

> org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Content is not allowed in prolog.

It works properly when I use the plain string variable containing the exact same contents as the graph file, so I guess the contents of the file are valid.

Thx,

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Pass a graph file into DotGraph() constructor.
2.
3.

Thanks for your report. The issue is the file extension, which has to be "dot".

I've added a clearer error message in master (see TestDotAst#extensionError).

Great!! It works with .dot file extension.
Thanks for your help.
