Loading/saving to memory pointer

[Alexey Menshikov]

Hello there, i need an advice.
Im use tinyXML (and its great!) for one project as preset file format container.
Now, due to specs change, i have use host app chunks to save/load preset. I dont want change format and would like to save/load whole xml to memory.

Exploring Document class load/save functions i found that i could use Parse( data.c_str() ); for load and Print( fp, 0 ); for save but how i could get the size of whole xml to save?  Will the sizeof() work?

Thanks in advance,
Alex

The only way I can think of is first to store the whole XML tree in a string, then to ask the size of the string.

If you're saving in memory anyway, you could just keep a handle on the root document object, and never need to write to a string/parse the string?
