XML library

hi, i have downloaded xml library from xmlsoft.org, the library name is libxml2 (for linux, windows) .... i read the doc but it is not very clear .... i don't understand if with this library is possible to create xml files or it's only possible to parse xml file...

thank u

bye

:)

this is a simple apllication that it should create an xml file....if i understand api specification....

but with borland 5.5 compiler i have an error with linker...

-------------------------------------------------

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <libxml/xmlmemory.h>
#include <libxml/parser.h>
#include <libxml/tree.h>


int main()
{
xmlDocPtr docPtr;
xmlNodePtr nodePtr;
xmlChar *name;
xmlChar *content;

docPtr = xmlNewDoc("1.0");

name = "tag";
content = "mmm";

nodePtr = xmlNewDocNode(NULL, NULL, name, content);


return 0;
}

these is the errors:


Error: Unresolved external '_xmlNewDoc' referenced from D:\UNI\PROGETTONE\XML\TEST.OBJ
Error: Unresolved external '_xmlNewDocNode' referenced from D:\UNI\PROGETTONE\XML\TEST.OBJ

please help me :)

but i already put the library in the path ( \include) the problem is that the linker doesn't find the reference....

don't u think??

of course u are right....

i'm a little bit stupid :rolleyes:

but if i compile with option
-L library there is another error :confused:

what's wrong????

this may help you.

i tried but there is already the same problem.......

i resolved the problem with COFF2OMF borland tool ......the compile goes all ok.

now i have to understand how to use tihs libraries :)

i execute the program compiled above but it doesn't create an xml file, it creates two file:
1) tree.obj
2) tree.tds

wich type of file are these??

i know but i don't know where are these functions....

thank u however :)

In your Borland bin directory you should find COFF2OMF.EXE

Code:

---

COFF to OMF Converter Version 1.0.0.74 Copyright (c) 1999, 2000 Inprise Corporation
Syntax:  COFF2OMF [options] InputFile OutputFile
  -h, -?  Display help
  -q      Quiet mode
  -v      Verbose mode
  -r      Remove (delete) output file if empty
  -lib:xx Specify options for OMF import library generation:
      ms - Allow entries that have MS C++ name mangling (default: no)
      st - Normalize names instead of aliasing MS stdcall mangling
      ca - Don't perform MS cdecl aliasing (default is to alias)

COFF2OMF will convert a COFF import library file (InputFile)
to the corresponding OMF type import library file (OutputFile).

If you don't know how to use it, try google'ing it.
