| |
| <p>Libxml2 is the XML C parser and toolkit developed for the Gnome project |
| (but usable outside of the Gnome platform), it is free software available |
| under the <a href="http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.html">MIT |
| License</a>. XML itself is a metalanguage to design markup languages, i.e. |
| text language where semantic and structure are added to the content using |
| extra "markup" information enclosed between angle brackets. HTML is the most |
| well-known markup language. Though the library is written in C <a |
| href="python.html">a variety of language bindings</a> make it available in |
| other environments.</p> |
| |
| <p>Libxml2 is known to be very portable, the library should build and work |
| without serious troubles on a variety of systems (Linux, Unix, Windows, |
| CygWin, MacOS, MacOS X, RISC Os, OS/2, VMS, QNX, MVS, VxWorks, ...)</p> |

| <h2><a name="Introducti">Introduction</a></h2> |
| |
| <p>This document describes libxml, the <a |
| href="http://www.w3.org/XML/">XML</a> C parser and toolkit developed for the |
| <a href="http://www.gnome.org/">Gnome</a> project. <a |
| href="http://www.w3.org/XML/">XML is a standard</a> for building tag-based |
| structured documents/data.</p> |
| |
| <p>Here are some key points about libxml:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Libxml2 exports Push (progressive) and Pull (blocking) type parser |
| interfaces for both XML and HTML.</li> |
| <li>Libxml2 can do DTD validation at parse time, using a parsed document |
| instance, or with an arbitrary DTD.</li> |
| <li>Libxml2 includes complete <a |
| href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath">XPath</a>, <a |
| href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xptr">XPointer</a> and <a |
| href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xinclude">XInclude</a> implementations.</li> |
| <li>It is written in plain C, making as few assumptions as possible, and |
| sticking closely to ANSI C/POSIX for easy embedding. Works on |
| Linux/Unix/Windows, ported to a number of other platforms.</li> |
| <li>Basic support for HTTP and FTP client allowing applications to fetch |
| remote resources.</li> |
| <li>The design is modular, most of the extensions can be compiled out.</li> |
| <li>The internal document representation is as close as possible to the <a |
| href="http://www.w3.org/DOM/">DOM</a> interfaces.</li> |
| <li>Libxml2 also has a <a |
| href="http://www.megginson.com/SAX/index.html">SAX like interface</a>; |
| the interface is designed to be compatible with <a |
| href="http://www.jclark.com/xml/expat.html">Expat</a>.</li> |
| <li>This library is released under the <a |
| href="http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.html">MIT |
| License</a>. See the Copyright file in the distribution for the precise |
| wording.</li> |
| </ul> |

| <li><em>Can I embed libxml2 in a proprietary application ?</em> |
| <p>Yes. The MIT License allows you to keep proprietary the changes you |

| development tree.</p> |
| </li> |
| </ol> |
| |
| <h3><a name="Installati">Installation</a></h3> |
| <ol> |
| <li><strong><span style="background-color: #FF0000">Do Not Use |
| libxml1</span></strong>, use libxml2</li> |
| <p></p> |
| <li><em>Where can I get libxml</em> ? |
| <p>The original distribution comes from <a |
| href="ftp://xmlsoft.org/libxml2/">xmlsoft.org</a> or <a |
| href="ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/libxml2/2.6/">gnome.org</a></p> |
| <p>Most Linux and BSD distributions include libxml, this is probably the |
| safer way for end-users to use libxml.</p> |
| <p>David Doolin provides precompiled Windows versions at <a |
| href="http://www.ce.berkeley.edu/~doolin/code/libxmlwin32/ ">http://www.ce.berkeley.edu/~doolin/code/libxmlwin32/</a></p> |
| </li> |
| <p></p> |
| <li><em>I see libxml and libxml2 releases, which one should I install ?</em> |
| <ul> |
| <li>If you are not constrained by backward compatibility issues with |
| existing applications, install libxml2 only</li> |
| <li>If you are not doing development, you can safely install both. |
| Usually the packages <a |
| href="http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/libxml.html">libxml</a> and <a |
| href="http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/libxml2.html">libxml2</a> are |
| compatible (this is not the case for development packages).</li> |
| <li>If you are a developer and your system provides separate packaging |
| for shared libraries and the development components, it is possible |
| to install libxml and libxml2, and also <a |
| href="http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/libxml-devel.html">libxml-devel</a> |
| and <a |
| href="http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/libxml2-devel.html">libxml2-devel</a> |
| too for libxml2 >= 2.3.0</li> |
| <li>If you are developing a new application, please develop against |
| libxml2(-devel)</li> |
| </ul> |
| </li> |
| <li><em>I can't install the libxml package, it conflicts with libxml0</em> |
| <p>You probably have an old libxml0 package used to provide the shared |
| library for libxml.so.0, you can probably safely remove it. The libxml |
| packages provided on <a |
| href="ftp://xmlsoft.org/libxml2/">xmlsoft.org</a> provide |
| libxml.so.0</p> |
| </li> |
| <li><em>I can't install the libxml(2) RPM package due to failed |
| dependencies</em> |
| <p>The most generic solution is to re-fetch the latest src.rpm , and |
| rebuild it locally with</p> |
| <p><code>rpm --rebuild libxml(2)-xxx.src.rpm</code>.</p> |
| <p>If everything goes well it will generate two binary rpm packages (one |
| providing the shared libs and xmllint, and the other one, the -devel |
| package, providing includes, static libraries and scripts needed to build |
| applications with libxml(2)) that you can install locally.</p> |
| </li> |
| </ol> |
| |
| <h3><a name="Compilatio">Compilation</a></h3> |
| <ol> |
| <li><em>What is the process to compile libxml2 ?</em> |
| <p>As most UNIX libraries libxml2 follows the "standard":</p> |
| <p><code>gunzip -c xxx.tar.gz | tar xvf -</code></p> |
| <p><code>cd libxml-xxxx</code></p> |
| <p><code>./configure --help</code></p> |
| <p>to see the options, then the compilation/installation proper</p> |
| <p><code>./configure [possible options]</code></p> |
| <p><code>make</code></p> |
| <p><code>make install</code></p> |
| <p>At that point you may have to rerun ldconfig or a similar utility to |
| update your list of installed shared libs.</p> |
| </li> |
| <li><em>What other libraries are needed to compile/install libxml2 ?</em> |
| <p>Libxml2 does not require any other library, the normal C ANSI API |
| should be sufficient (please report any violation to this rule you may |
| find).</p> |
| <p>However if found at configuration time libxml2 will detect and use the |
| following libs:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li><a href="http://www.info-zip.org/pub/infozip/zlib/">libz</a> : a |
| highly portable and available widely compression library.</li> |
| <li>iconv: a powerful character encoding conversion library. It is |
| included by default in recent glibc libraries, so it doesn't need to |
| be installed specifically on Linux. It now seems a <a |
| href="http://www.opennc.org/onlinepubs/7908799/xsh/iconv.html">part |
| of the official UNIX</a> specification. Here is one <a |
| href="http://www.gnu.org/software/libiconv/">implementation of the |
| library</a> which source can be found <a |
| href="ftp://ftp.ilog.fr/pub/Users/haible/gnu/">here</a>.</li> |
| </ul> |
| </li> |
| <p></p> |
| <li><em>Make check fails on some platforms</em> |
| <p>Sometimes the regression tests' results don't completely match the |
| value produced by the parser, and the makefile uses diff to print the |
| delta. On some platforms the diff return breaks the compilation process; |
| if the diff is small this is probably not a serious problem.</p> |
| <p>Sometimes (especially on Solaris) make checks fail due to limitations |
| in make. Try using GNU-make instead.</p> |
| </li> |
| <li><em>I use the SVN version and there is no configure script</em> |
| <p>The configure script (and other Makefiles) are generated. Use the |
| autogen.sh script to regenerate the configure script and Makefiles, |
| like:</p> |
| <p><code>./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr --disable-shared</code></p> |
| </li> |
| <li><em>I have troubles when running make tests with gcc-3.0</em> |
| <p>It seems the initial release of gcc-3.0 has a problem with the |
| optimizer which miscompiles the URI module. Please use another |
| compiler.</p> |
| </li> |
| </ol> |
| |
| <h3><a name="Developer">Developer</a> corner</h3> |
| <ol> |
| <li><em>Troubles compiling or linking programs using libxml2</em> |
| <p>Usually the problem comes from the fact that the compiler doesn't get |
| the right compilation or linking flags. There is a small shell script |
| <code>xml2-config</code> which is installed as part of libxml2 usual |
| install process which provides those flags. Use</p> |
| <p><code>xml2-config --cflags</code></p> |
| <p>to get the compilation flags and</p> |
| <p><code>xml2-config --libs</code></p> |
| <p>to get the linker flags. Usually this is done directly from the |
| Makefile as:</p> |
| <p><code>CFLAGS=`xml2-config --cflags`</code></p> |
| <p><code>LIBS=`xml2-config --libs`</code></p> |
| </li> |
| <li><em>I want to install my own copy of libxml2 in my home directory and |
| link my programs against it, but it doesn't work</em> |
| <p>There are many different ways to accomplish this. Here is one way to |
| do this under Linux. Suppose your home directory is <code>/home/user. |
| </code>Then:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Create a subdirectory, let's call it <code>myxml</code></li> |
| <li>unpack the libxml2 distribution into that subdirectory</li> |
| <li>chdir into the unpacked distribution |
| (<code>/home/user/myxml/libxml2 </code>)</li> |
| <li>configure the library using the "<code>--prefix</code>" switch, |
| specifying an installation subdirectory in |
| <code>/home/user/myxml</code>, e.g. |
| <p><code>./configure --prefix /home/user/myxml/xmlinst</code> {other |
| configuration options}</p> |
| </li> |
| <li>now run <code>make</code> followed by <code>make install</code></li> |
| <li>At this point, the installation subdirectory contains the complete |
| "private" include files, library files and binary program files (e.g. |
| xmllint), located in |
| <p><code>/home/user/myxml/xmlinst/lib, |
| /home/user/myxml/xmlinst/include </code> and <code> |
| /home/user/myxml/xmlinst/bin</code></p> |
| respectively.</li> |
| <li>In order to use this "private" library, you should first add it to |
| the beginning of your default PATH (so that your own private program |
| files such as xmllint will be used instead of the normal system |
| ones). To do this, the Bash command would be |
| <p><code>export PATH=/home/user/myxml/xmlinst/bin:$PATH</code></p> |
| </li> |
| <li>Now suppose you have a program <code>test1.c</code> that you would |
| like to compile with your "private" library. Simply compile it using |
| the command |
| <p><code>gcc `xml2-config --cflags --libs` -o test test.c</code></p> |
| Note that, because your PATH has been set with <code> |
| /home/user/myxml/xmlinst/bin</code> at the beginning, the xml2-config |
| program which you just installed will be used instead of the system |
| default one, and this will <em>automatically</em> get the correct |
| libraries linked with your program.</li> |
| </ul> |
| </li> |
| |
| <p></p> |
| <li><em>xmlDocDump() generates output on one line.</em> |
| <p>Libxml2 will not <strong>invent</strong> spaces in the content of a |
| document since <strong>all spaces in the content of a document are |
| significant</strong>. If you build a tree from the API and want |
| indentation:</p> |
| <ol> |
| <li>the correct way is to generate those yourself too.</li> |
| <li>the dangerous way is to ask libxml2 to add those blanks to your |
| content <strong>modifying the content of your document in the |
| process</strong>. The result may not be what you expect. There is |
| <strong>NO</strong> way to guarantee that such a modification won't |
| affect other parts of the content of your document. See <a |
| href="http://xmlsoft.org/html/libxml-parser.html#xmlKeepBlanksDefault">xmlKeepBlanksDefault |
| ()</a> and <a |
| href="http://xmlsoft.org/html/libxml-tree.html#xmlSaveFormatFile">xmlSaveFormatFile |
| ()</a></li> |
| </ol> |
| </li> |
| <p></p> |
| <li><em>Extra nodes in the document:</em> |
| <p><em>For an XML file as below:</em></p> |
| <pre><?xml version="1.0"?> |
| <PLAN xmlns="http://www.argus.ca/autotest/1.0/"> |
| <NODE CommFlag="0"/> |
| <NODE CommFlag="1"/> |
| </PLAN></pre> |
| <p><em>after parsing it with the function |
| pxmlDoc=xmlParseFile(...);</em></p> |
| <p><em>I want to the get the content of the first node (node with the |
| CommFlag="0")</em></p> |
| <p><em>so I did it as following;</em></p> |
| <pre>xmlNodePtr pnode; |
| pnode=pxmlDoc->children->children;</pre> |
| <p><em>but it does not work. If I change it to</em></p> |
| <pre>pnode=pxmlDoc->children->children->next;</pre> |
| <p><em>then it works. Can someone explain it to me.</em></p> |
| <p></p> |
| <p>In XML all characters in the content of the document are significant |
| <strong>including blanks and formatting line breaks</strong>.</p> |
| <p>The extra nodes you are wondering about are just that, text nodes with |
| the formatting spaces which are part of the document but that people tend |
| to forget. There is a function <a |
| href="http://xmlsoft.org/html/libxml-parser.html">xmlKeepBlanksDefault |
| ()</a> to remove those at parse time, but that's an heuristic, and its |
| use should be limited to cases where you are certain there is no |
| mixed-content in the document.</p> |
| </li> |
| <li><em>I get compilation errors of existing code like when accessing |
| <strong>root</strong> or <strong>child fields</strong> of nodes.</em> |
| <p>You are compiling code developed for libxml version 1 and using a |
| libxml2 development environment. Either switch back to libxml v1 devel or |
| even better fix the code to compile with libxml2 (or both) by <a |
| href="upgrade.html">following the instructions</a>.</p> |
| </li> |
| <li><em>I get compilation errors about non existing |
| <strong>xmlRootNode</strong> or <strong>xmlChildrenNode</strong> |
| fields.</em> |
| <p>The source code you are using has been <a |
| href="upgrade.html">upgraded</a> to be able to compile with both libxml |
| and libxml2, but you need to install a more recent version: |
| libxml(-devel) >= 1.8.8 or libxml2(-devel) >= 2.1.0</p> |
| </li> |
| <li><em>Random crashes in threaded applications</em> |
| <p>Read and follow all advices on the <a href="threads.html">thread |
| safety</a> page, and make 100% sure you never call xmlCleanupParser() |
| while the library or an XML document might still be in use by another |
| thread.</p> |
| </li> |
| <li><em>The example provided in the web page does not compile.</em> |
| <p>It's hard to maintain the documentation in sync with the code |
| <grin/> ...</p> |
| <p>Check the previous points 1/ and 2/ raised before, and please send |
| patches.</p> |
| </li> |
| <li><em>Where can I get more examples and information than provided on the |
| web page?</em> |
| <p>Ideally a libxml2 book would be nice. I have no such plan ... But you |
| can:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>check more deeply the <a href="html/libxml-lib.html">existing |
| generated doc</a></li> |
| <li>have a look at <a href="examples/index.html">the set of |
| examples</a>.</li> |
| <li>look for examples of use for libxml2 function using the Gnome code |
| or by asking on Google.</li> |
| <li><a |
| href="http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/libxml2/trunk/">Browse |
| the libxml2 source</a> , I try to write code as clean and documented |
| as possible, so looking at it may be helpful. In particular the code |
| of <a href="http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/libxml2/trunk/xmllint.c?view=markup">xmllint.c</a> and of the various testXXX.c test programs should |
| provide good examples of how to do things with the library.</li> |
| </ul> |
| </li> |
| <p></p> |
| <li><em>What about C++ ?</em> |
| <p>libxml2 is written in pure C in order to allow easy reuse on a number |
| of platforms, including embedded systems. I don't intend to convert to |
| C++.</p> |
| <p>There is however a C++ wrapper which may fulfill your needs:</p> |

| <li><em>How to validate a document a posteriori ?</em> |
| <p>It is possible to validate documents which had not been validated at |
| initial parsing time or documents which have been built from scratch |
| using the API. Use the <a |
| href="http://xmlsoft.org/html/libxml-valid.html#xmlValidateDtd">xmlValidateDtd()</a> |
| function. It is also possible to simply add a DTD to an existing |
| document:</p> |
| <pre>xmlDocPtr doc; /* your existing document */ |
| xmlDtdPtr dtd = xmlParseDTD(NULL, filename_of_dtd); /* parse the DTD */ |
| |
| dtd->name = xmlStrDup((xmlChar*)"root_name"); /* use the given root */ |
| |
| doc->intSubset = dtd; |
| if (doc->children == NULL) xmlAddChild((xmlNodePtr)doc, (xmlNodePtr)dtd); |
| else xmlAddPrevSibling(doc->children, (xmlNodePtr)dtd); |
| </pre> |
| </li> |
| <li><em>So what is this funky "xmlChar" used all the time?</em> |
| <p>It is a null terminated sequence of utf-8 characters. And only utf-8! |
| You need to convert strings encoded in different ways to utf-8 before |
| passing them to the API. This can be accomplished with the iconv library |
| for instance.</p> |

| <li>etc ...</li> |

| <h2><a name="Reporting">Reporting bugs and getting help</a></h2> |
| |
| <p>Well, bugs or missing features are always possible, and I will make a |
| point of fixing them in a timely fashion. The best way to report a bug is to |
| use the <a href="http://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?product=libxml2">Gnome |
| bug tracking database</a> (make sure to use the "libxml2" module name). I |
| look at reports there regularly and it's good to have a reminder when a bug |
| is still open. Be sure to specify that the bug is for the package libxml2.</p> |
| |
| <p>For small problems you can try to get help on IRC, the #xml channel on |
| irc.gnome.org (port 6667) usually have a few person subscribed which may help |
| (but there is no guarantee and if a real issue is raised it should go on the |
| mailing-list for archival).</p> |
| |
| <p>There is also a mailing-list <a |
| href="mailto:xml@gnome.org">xml@gnome.org</a> for libxml, with an <a |
| href="http://mail.gnome.org/archives/xml/">on-line archive</a> (<a |
| href="http://xmlsoft.org/messages">old</a>). To subscribe to this list, |
| please visit the <a |
| href="http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/xml">associated Web</a> page and |
| follow the instructions. <strong>Do not send code, I won't debug it</strong> |
| (but patches are really appreciated!).</p> |
| |
| <p>Please note that with the current amount of virus and SPAM, sending mail |
| to the list without being subscribed won't work. There is *far too many |
| bounces* (in the order of a thousand a day !) I cannot approve them manually |
| anymore. If your mail to the list bounced waiting for administrator approval, |
| it is LOST ! Repost it and fix the problem triggering the error. Also please |
| note that <span style="color: #FF0000; background-color: #FFFFFF">emails with |
| a legal warning asking to not copy or redistribute freely the information |
| they contain</span> are <strong>NOT</strong> acceptable for the mailing-list, |
| such mail will as much as possible be discarded automatically, and are less |
| likely to be answered if they made it to the list, <strong>DO NOT</strong> |
| post to the list from an email address where such legal requirements are |
| automatically added, get private paying support if you can't share |
| information.</p> |
| |
| <p>Check the following <strong><span style="color: #FF0000">before |
| posting</span></strong>:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Read the <a href="FAQ.html">FAQ</a> and <a href="search.php">use the |
| search engine</a> to get information related to your problem.</li> |
| <li>Make sure you are <a href="ftp://xmlsoft.org/libxml2/">using a recent |
| version</a>, and that the problem still shows up in a recent version.</li> |
| <li>Check the <a href="http://mail.gnome.org/archives/xml/">list |
| archives</a> to see if the problem was reported already. In this case |
| there is probably a fix available, similarly check the <a |
| href="http://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?product=libxml2">registered |
| open bugs</a>.</li> |
| <li>Make sure you can reproduce the bug with xmllint or one of the test |
| programs found in source in the distribution.</li> |
| <li>Please send the command showing the error as well as the input (as an |
| attachment)</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <p>Then send the bug with associated information to reproduce it to the <a |
| href="mailto:xml@gnome.org">xml@gnome.org</a> list; if it's really libxml |
| related I will approve it. Please do not send mail to me directly, it makes |
| things really hard to track and in some cases I am not the best person to |
| answer a given question, ask on the list.</p> |
| |
| <p>To <span style="color: #E50000">be really clear about support</span>:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Support or help <span style="color: #E50000">requests MUST be sent to |
| the list or on bugzilla</span> in case of problems, so that the Question |
| and Answers can be shared publicly. Failing to do so carries the implicit |
| message "I want free support but I don't want to share the benefits with |
| others" and is not welcome. I will automatically Carbon-Copy the |
| xml@gnome.org mailing list for any technical reply made about libxml2 or |
| libxslt.</li> |
| <li>There is <span style="color: #E50000">no guarantee of support</span>. If |
| your question remains unanswered after a week, repost it, making sure you |
| gave all the detail needed and the information requested.</li> |
| <li>Failing to provide information as requested or double checking first |
| for prior feedback also carries the implicit message "the time of the |
| library maintainers is less valuable than my time" and might not be |
| welcome.</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <p>Of course, bugs reported with a suggested patch for fixing them will |
| probably be processed faster than those without.</p> |
| |
| <p>If you're looking for help, a quick look at <a |
| href="http://mail.gnome.org/archives/xml/">the list archive</a> may actually |
| provide the answer. I usually send source samples when answering libxml2 |
| usage questions. The <a |
| href="http://xmlsoft.org/html/book1.html">auto-generated documentation</a> is |
| not as polished as I would like (i need to learn more about DocBook), but |
| it's a good starting point.</p> |
| |

| <h3>2.0.0: Apr 12 2000</h3> |
| <ul> |
| <li>First public release of libxml2. If you are using libxml, it's a good |
| idea to check the 1.x to 2.x upgrade instructions. NOTE: while initially |
| scheduled for Apr 3 the release occurred only on Apr 12 due to massive |
| workload.</li> |
| <li>The include are now located under $prefix/include/libxml (instead of |
| $prefix/include/gnome-xml), they also are referenced by |
| <pre>#include <libxml/xxx.h></pre> |
| <p>instead of</p> |
| <pre>#include "xxx.h"</pre> |
| </li> |
| <li>a new URI module for parsing URIs and following strictly RFC 2396</li> |
| <li>the memory allocation routines used by libxml can now be overloaded |
| dynamically by using xmlMemSetup()</li> |
| <li>The previously CVS only tool tester has been renamed |
| <strong>xmllint</strong> and is now installed as part of the libxml2 |
| package</li> |
| <li>The I/O interface has been revamped. There is now ways to plug in |
| specific I/O modules, either at the URI scheme detection level using |
| xmlRegisterInputCallbacks() or by passing I/O functions when creating a |
| parser context using xmlCreateIOParserCtxt()</li> |
| <li>there is a C preprocessor macro LIBXML_VERSION providing the version |
| number of the libxml module in use</li> |
| <li>a number of optional features of libxml can now be excluded at |
| configure time (FTP/HTTP/HTML/XPath/Debug)</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <h3>2.0.0beta: Mar 14 2000</h3> |
| <ul> |
| <li>This is a first Beta release of libxml version 2</li> |
| <li>It's available only from<a href="ftp://xmlsoft.org/libxml2/">xmlsoft.org |
| FTP</a>, it's packaged as libxml2-2.0.0beta and available as tar and |
| RPMs</li> |
| <li>This version is now the head in the Gnome CVS base, the old one is |
| available under the tag LIB_XML_1_X</li> |
| <li>This includes a very large set of changes. From a programmatic point |
| of view applications should not have to be modified too much, check the |
| <a href="upgrade.html">upgrade page</a></li> |
| <li>Some interfaces may changes (especially a bit about encoding).</li> |
| <li>the updates includes: |
| <ul> |
| <li>fix I18N support. ISO-Latin-x/UTF-8/UTF-16 (nearly) seems correctly |
| handled now</li> |
| <li>Better handling of entities, especially well-formedness checking |
| and proper PEref extensions in external subsets</li> |
| <li>DTD conditional sections</li> |
| <li>Validation now correctly handle entities content</li> |
| <li><a href="http://rpmfind.net/tools/gdome/messages/0039.html">change |
| structures to accommodate DOM</a></li> |
| </ul> |
| </li> |
| <li>Serious progress were made toward compliance, <a |
| href="conf/result.html">here are the result of the test</a> against the |
| OASIS testsuite (except the Japanese tests since I don't support that |
| encoding yet). This URL is rebuilt every couple of hours using the CVS |
| head version.</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <h3>1.8.7: Mar 6 2000</h3> |
| <ul> |
| <li>This is a bug fix release:</li> |
| <li>It is possible to disable the ignorable blanks heuristic used by |
| libxml-1.x, a new function xmlKeepBlanksDefault(0) will allow this. Note |
| that for adherence to XML spec, this behaviour will be disabled by |
| default in 2.x . The same function will allow to keep compatibility for |
| old code.</li> |
| <li>Blanks in <a> </a> constructs are not ignored anymore, |
| avoiding heuristic is really the Right Way :-\</li> |
| <li>The unchecked use of snprintf which was breaking libxml-1.8.6 |
| compilation on some platforms has been fixed</li> |
| <li>nanoftp.c nanohttp.c: Fixed '#' and '?' stripping when processing |
| URIs</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <h3>1.8.6: Jan 31 2000</h3> |
| <ul> |
| <li>added a nanoFTP transport module, debugged until the new version of <a |
| href="http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/rpmfind.html">rpmfind</a> can use |
| it without troubles</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <h3>1.8.5: Jan 21 2000</h3> |
| <ul> |
| <li>adding APIs to parse a well balanced chunk of XML (production <a |
