Detailed Description

In order to load an xml document, we use the constructor

Xml_document_ptr doc = create_xml_document(fileName);

and parse with the parse method

parse(doc);

Root node of the document can be obtained via the getFirstChild method:

rootNode = doc->root;

For example, to iterate over the first level tags in the xml file one can use

Xml_element_ptr rootNode = doc->root;
Xml_element_ptr childNode = rootNode->first_child;
while (childNode != NULL){
  ...
  childNode = childNode->next_sibling;
}

Tag name can be obtained via getName, pcData via getPcData methods.
