Hi Dave, Thanks a lot for the answer. I figured as much as, the reading the xml document and creating the DOM Tree would be non-recursive, but i was concerned about the Validation part. Unfortunately, my program is crashing if the depth of the DOM Tree is around 3000. I was thinking this would be a stack overflow. But if it is not, then i need to build a debug library and debug it.
Thanks again. renin. > -----Original Message----- > From: David N Bertoni/Cambridge/IBM [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, March 21, 2003 12:25 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: XercesDOMParser::parse() - Is this Recursive? > > > > > > > Hi Renin, > > The parser doesn't traverse a DOM tree.
