Dear fellow R users,
I'm using the package tm for text mining, and have a problem with
reading in a corpus from XML files.
When I copy the example from "Introduction to the tm package" of the
small reuters subset "crude", everything goes well, and I get a corpus
with the required meta data.
When I read in the entire reuters21578 corpus in XML format however (or
a self-created subset thereof) the meta data is lost, and the files are
interpreted as plain text.
I use the following command, where the indicated directory contains all
reuters 21578 documents as separate XML files:
> reuters21578 <- Corpus(DirSource("C:/Data/Reuters/preprocessed"),
readerContol=list(reader=readReut21578XML))
I'm running R2.15.0 under Windows XP.
Has anybody else encountered this problem and found a cause/solution.
Best regards,
-Ad Feelders
