the gold standard in portability and speed is still expat as far as I know. It's fallen out of favor in recent years as it really wants to process the entire XML document in one pass (but it does have callbacks so that it can handle learning about new tags as you go along). with multi-meg/gig XML documents you really need to have an incramental parser, but rsyslog shouldn't need to deal with such large entities ;-) David Lang _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com
