I'm now on a project which is going to be heavy XML, in plain-vanilla-C. I intend to use expat to read in XML data, but I also have to write XML, and I also will likely have to handle SOAP (both read and write). I was wondering if there are expat experts out there, who can direct me to any libraries (in tight C) which can aid writing XML, or in reading/writing SOAP envelopes. I'm also not opposed to the idea that these problems are simple enough that I should be rolling my own in the first place. Any tips, pointers, etc, would be appreciated! (Pointers... been a while! ;) ) Thank you, Bryan ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

This intermediate form (a C struct) needs to be passed around to various functions in other libraries we are writing, but also must be able to be converted back to XML. Our DTD is very simple, so to convert from the struct to XML, I have basically just used printf's which mostly works fine. The resulting XML document need not be identical to the original XML document, although it must carry the same information. Therefore, to change original question somewhat, I could solve the problem with a utility which takes some null-terminated string and converts it to the equivalent string where each appropriate character (single quote, double quote, ampersand, etc) is converted into its general entity representation. Do you know of such a utility? Thankyou. -Andrew From andrew.nesbit@csiro.au Tue Feb 19 00:24:07 2002 From: andrew.nesbit@csiro.au (Andrew Nesbit) Date: Tue Feb 19 00:24:07 2002 Subject: [Expat-discuss] Error handling with Expat Message-ID: <3C720B77.6050906@csiro.au> Is there some way by which I can tell the parser to stop parsing and return an error code to the caller of XML_Parse()?

The error is exactly as it says. The XML Recommendation requires that a well-formed XML document contain exactly one top-level element, and your document doesn't contain any element, just processing instructions. That's not allowed.

It's now checked in, with my addition of a description of the -v option I added to xmlwf a few days after you sent this. I must apologize for the delay in getting this checked in; I wasn't holding it back for any particular reason, I just didn't get as much time for Expat as I'd hoped. I wasn't able to get the docbook-to-man tool working on my Mandrake box; if you'd like, I'll be glad to add you to the project on SourceForge so you can update this yourself and check in the nroff version.

I've made it available I'll be taking a look at this next. The "check" unit testing support appears to be getting abandoned.
