Detailed Description

Namespace for XML classes.

The XML features of TSDuck are freely inspired from TinyXML-2, a simple and lightweight XML library originally developed by Lee Thomason.

TSDuck used to embed TinyXML-2 in the past but no longer does to allow more specialized operations. This set of classes is probably less fast than TinyXML-2 but TSDuck does not manipulate huge XML files. So, this should be OK.

Among the differences between TinyXML-2 and this set of classes:

• Uses Unicode strings from the beginning.
• Error reporting using ts::Report.
• Case-insensitive search of names and attributes.
• Getting values and attributes with cardinality and value bounds checks.
• Print / format any subset of a document.
• XML document validation using a template.
