Fist off, I'm a total newbie when it comes to libxml. I've been able to
work my way through some examples, and produce working code, but I'm not
entirely happy with the result, and I would like some advice.
I have an XML tree that looks like this:
<root>
<plc id="1">
<some stuff/>
</plc>
<plc id="2">
<some other stuff/>
</plc>
</root>
I have a relatively small number (< 50) of the plc nodes, but the whole
tree is pretty big.
What is the best (or simplest way) to retrieve the information for plc 2?
Should I pull all of the plc elements using xmlXPathEvalExpression, and
then iterate over them with xmlGetProp looking for an id attribute with
a value of "2"?
Or is there some other way to directly specify, I want this element with
these attributes?
Thanks for any guidance.... The docs are really thorough, but libxml is
so rich that the learning curve is a killer.....
