Supporting a trivial subset of XML is near-trivial, but there is a lot more that has to be dealt with if you want your code to survive contact with real data and real users. Everything should be as simple as possible, but not simpler. If you want to learn about parsers, implementing a sloppy subset really won't teach you much. "Try not. Do! ... Or do not." There are royalty-free parsers out there, if that's your concern. I don't know what's available in plain C these days, but Apache's Xerces parser is available in a C++ version. -- Joe Kesselman / Beware the fury of a patient man. -- John Dryden | ||||||
