What is the source code to parse this XML file ?

I can read the first item <Carte... but I can't find the method to read the other items <Carte...

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<!-- Liste des cartes Keithley -->
<Keithley>
    <Carte Name="KPCI-1801HC" Driver="KPCI1800" NbAI="64" NbAO="2" NbDI="4" NbDO="8" NbDIO="0" />
    <Carte Name="KPCI-3107" Driver="KPCI3108" NbAI="16" NbAO="0" NbDI="6" NbDO="6" NbDIO="32" />
    <Carte Name="KPCI-PIO24" Driver="KPCIPIO" NbAI="0" NbAO="0" NbDI="0" NbDO="0" NbDIO="24" />
    <Carte Name="KPCI-3160" Driver="KPCI3160" NbAI="0" NbAO="0" NbDI="0" NbDO="0" NbDIO="96" />
</Keithley>

Thanks for your help,

If you have a pointer to the first one, the next one is :

first -> NextSiblingElement ();

or if you specifically search the next "Carte" :

first -> NextSiblingElement ("Carte");

        </MENUItem>
   
        </MENU>
    </Main>

the thing i want it todo is get Nextsliblingelement("menuItem")
and put all menuitems in array aswell as count them

but i can't even make it show all menuitems on screen

help needed

this is the code i use

int count = 0;
for( node = doc.FirstChild();
         node!=NULL;
         node = node -> NextSiblingElement ("MENUItem"))
    {  count++;
       printf("%s", node->Value());
    }

it lacks todo what i want it todo

Hi.

This is what I do to 'iterate' over a bunch of elements.  Basically I have a function that builds a vector of all elements with a given name:

#include "tinyxml.h"

#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;

typedef vector <TiXmlElement*> NodeList;
void findElements(TiXmlElement* node, const char* searchName, NodeList& nodes)
{
    if (node) {
        string name (searchName);
       
        if (name == node->Value ()) {
            nodes.push_back (node);
        }
       
        TiXmlElement* child = node->FirstChildElement ();
        for (; child != NULL; child = child->NextSiblingElement ()) {
            findElements(child, searchName, nodes);
        }
    }
}

TiXmlElement* getRootNode(TiXmlDocument* doc, const char* filename,
        bool exitOnError = false)
{
    assert (doc != NULL);   
    assert (filename != NULL);
   
    doc->LoadFile (filename);
    if (doc->Error ()) {
        if (exitOnError) {
            exit (1);
        }
    }
   
    TiXmlElement* rootNode = doc->RootElement ();
   
    return rootNode;
}

int main()
{
    // get a list of all nodes named 'Carte'
    TiXmlDocument doc;
    TiXmlElement* rootNode = getRootNode(&doc, "test.xml");

    NodeList nodes;
    findElements(rootNode, "Carte", nodes);
   
    cout << "found " << nodes.size() << " elements:" << endl;
   
    NodeList::iterator it;
    for (it = nodes.begin (); it != nodes.end (); it++) {
        TiXmlElement* node = (TiXmlElement*) *it;
       
        cerr << "  node: '" << node->Value() << "' type=" << node->Type()
             << endl;
    }

}
