Using the xmlReader

The xmlReader API uses a reader object that progresses through the file (advanced by xmlReaderRead()), stopping at points of interest (start/end elements, text contents, sub-elements, etc). The functions xmlReaderGetType() and xmlReaderGetName() are essential for figuring out where the reader object is after each xmlReaderRead() call.

See the sample xmlReader01_Example for examples of working with the xmlReader API.
