RE: [xml] Bug 81360

[Jean Senellart <senellart systran fr>]

my 2 cents on this: the interpretation layer will not be so easy to do and not easily maintainable since the error, warning and debug messages are not so structured. if we considere the messages that xmlGenericError receive (there is about 1000 different calls to this function):

"xmlC14NVisibleNsStackAdd: cur is null.\n"
"SAX.resolveEntity(%s, %s)\n", publicId, systemId
"Cannot read file %s\n", filename
"xmlNewProp : malloc failed\n"
"xmlBufferAddHead: len < 0\n"
"XInclude: XPointer evaluation failed: #%s\n", fragment
"XInclude: XPointer is not a range: #%s\n", fragment
...

maybe first step would be to add some structure in those messages (let us say for instance... a xml format :-)?

does this make sense?
