Using ruby 1.8.4-17_rc2, example from Enterprise Integration with ruby

#Generates the followwing error: uninitialized constant

Would someone look at this example and annotate what is wrong,

Thank you, John

There is no StreamListener in scope ParcelHistoryListener. You want
REXML::StreamListener.

I don't see what you are trying to do with

def tag_name
puts tag_name
end

Basically, this is an infinite recursive procedure. The tag_name after
puts will be resolved by calling the method tag_name again. I think you
want something like:

def start_tag(tag_name, attrs)
puts tag_name
end
