|
<P>This programmers manual describes Mini-XML version 2.0, a small XML
|
|
parsing library that you can use to read and write XML and XML-like
|
|
data files in your application without requiring large non-standard
|
|
libraries. Mini-XML only requires an ANSI C compatible compiler (GCC
|
|
works, as do most vendors' ANSI C compilers) and a "make" program.</P>
|
|
<P>Mini-XML provides the following functionality:</P>
|
|
<UL>
|
|
<LI>Reading of UTF-8 and UTF-16 encoded XML files and strings.</LI>
|
|
<LI>Writing of UTF-8 encoded XML files and strings.</LI>
|
|
<LI>Data is stored in a linked-list tree structure, preserving the XML
|
|
data hierarchy.</LI>
|
|
<LI>Supports arbitrary element names, attributes, and attribute values
|
|
with no preset limits, just available memory.</LI>
|
|
<LI>Supports integer, real, opaque ("cdata"), and text data types in
|
|
"leaf" nodes.</LI>
|
|
<LI>Functions for creating and managing trees of data.</LI>
|
|
<LI>"Find" and "walk" functions for easily locating and navigating trees
|
|
of data.</LI>
|
|
</UL>
|
|
<P>Mini-XML doesn't do validation or other types of processing on the
|
|
data based upon schema files or other sources of definition
|
|
information, nor does it support character entities other than those
|
|
required by the XML specification.</P>
