(*
Here I will show one way to parse XML document
The main concept of XML is using containers for XML objects -
so we will use Tree concept while building our XML object from XML document.
XML text uses containers (<TAG ... >...</TAG>) or simple definitions (<TAG ... />)
in each TAG we can use parameters (<TAG key1="value1" key2="value2">... <SIMPLE key3="value3"> ...</TAG>)
Finally we will have an array of objects, describing XML tags. Every object of this
class will have an array of children if needed, and a hash to describe properties of it.
For example if we have a text
<UL name="xxx">
<LI name="xxx1"/>
<LI name="xxx2"/>
<LI name="xxx3"/>
<LI name="xxx4"/>
</UL>
we will have one root object (named "UL") in wich we will have 4 children
(named "LI" with different sets of properties - from "NAME"="xxx1" to "NAME"="xxx4")
This is not a trivial task - so we will make a unit to solve this...
I will try to comment some here...
if you have any comments for this unit - write to me: sunworx@mail.ru; yz@infoteh.ru
