[xml] Is there any socket support?

[stan boehm philips com]

I have been trying to use  "xmlCreatePushParserCtxt" and
"xmlParseChunk"  to read from a socket stream.   After my code reads
approximately 1000 docs from the stream anywhere in size form
100 to 7000 bytes it always fails with parse error 4, 5 etc.

There must be a better way.  I have been listening in on your 
discussions for about 2 months, but have not seen anything
discussed related to reading from streams, or I missed it if it was.
Once I thought I saw something related, but now I can not find it.

All the functions I found for reading from files seemed to be limited
to one file, after which the file is  closed by  libxml.   Of course I
want my socket to remain open.  

I am using   libxml2-2.2.3.


Has anyone out there been down this road ?

I would appreciate any help or insight.
