Hi all, Is there a way in which I can get the content of an element
that has children, without getting the content of those children also? For
example if I have something like: <node1> <node2>some text</node2> <node1> And I call xmlNodeGetContent on node1, I get “some
text” and some blank characters around it. For this particular example I
would want an empty string as node1 doesn’t have any text content itself. This is actually part of a larger problem that I am trying
to solve, so there may be a better way. Basically, for my application, I have
little fragments of XML that I need to add to various elements of other XML
documents. I need to parse these fragments to ensure they are valid so I was
looking at the functions that add children to nodes but I could not find
anything that adds (and parses) a complete fragment of xml. Therefore, what I
do instead is build a new document from my fragment (which catches any parse
errors), then I iterate around all of the attributes and nodes in a recursive
manner adding them to my target. For each node, I make a new element with the
name and content of the original and here is where I get my problem – the
xmlNodeGetContent function is giving me the concatenated content of all
children but as I am handling recursion myself, I need only the content of the
actual node I am referring to. Any help much appreciated! Thanks, Caroline M. |
