That depends on how you process the XML.

If using SAX, you will get a callback (xmlSAX2Characters).
If using the reader, you navigate to the XML_READER_TYPE_TEXT and call
xmlTextReaderValue.
If using XPath, you need to use "...../Device/text()"; and get the
data from xmlXPathObject::nodesetval->nodeTab[i]->value
If using the DOM, you'll have to figure it out yourself because I
never used that.

Hope this helps,
Csaba
