That statement is not really true. Sure, if you've got a Java background it
might be easier, but the articles seems to gloss over any detailed
comparision of modern C++ XML tools likes IBMs and ours, or, langauges like
VB, which to a lesser degree I understand.
I think Java is great but..
Anybody with a C++ *will* find it easier using C++ tools and get the huge
performance benefits to boot.
In the MS world I live in mostly, VB *is* the easiest tool for XML
development unless this is complicated:
Dim xmlfile As DOMDocument
Dim contacts As DOMElement
Dim contact As DOMElement
Set xmlfile = New DOMDocument
Set contacts = xmlfile.createElement("Contacts")
xmlfile.appendChild contacts
xmlfile.save ("C:\test2.xml")
In C++ I just write this to create an XML document:
DOMDocument *pDoc;
pDoc = createDOMDocument();
pText = pDoc->createElement( L"Contacts");
pDoc>appendChild( pText );
saveDOMDocumentToFile( pDoc,
L"simple_utf16.xml",
L"UTF-16" );
pDoc->release();
Is that so hard for a C++ programmer ?
These code snippets are based on our products but the MS/IBM implementations
are bound to be as simple.
Just my 2$
