Peter,
You could also try this out with the MemParse sample code that comes along
with the package. If you modify the
string in gXMLInMemBuf variable in MemParse.cpp from a well-formed XML
string to a not well-formed one and try running the sample code, you will
see the behavior that I am seeing. That is, it does not throw an
XMLException ..... is this expected?
