[libxml++] regarding libxml++ DTD support

[<ja...@so...>]

Hi ,

I have the libxml++ version "libxml++-2.6.0.tar.gz"

I am trying out examples in it!

Is there any support for DTD, using SAX parser ?

For DOM parser its there, and its working fine.

But for SAX parser, how should I make use of DTD ?
Does any one having sample code of it ?


Thanks
Jasper

  "make use of DTD" means nothing. Be explicit, do you want:
    - DTD validation ?
    - External entity parsing ?
    - Entity substitution ? 
    - etc ...

SAX in libxml2 does not allow DTD validation.
SAX is IMHO a very bad API for 95% of the users. The 5% left 
are better off using the C directly and not binding because it's 
all about speed and crossing languages boundaries for all callbacks
are just not sensible if you're really in need highest performances.
