1. Purpose
Interface to the libxml2 library; see <http://xmlsoft.org/>
From the web site:
The XML C parser and toolkit of Gnome
libxml
"Programming with libxml2 is like the thrilling embrace of an exotic
stranger." Mark Pilgrim
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 MIT License. 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
variety of language bindings make it available in other environments.
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, ...)
