Well, if you're going to use an interpreted language (like JAVA) you might
as well use the most compact one. I would probably write in Python to
develop fast and port to C as time permits. Python can provide very fast
development as opposed to C, not that I am interested in starting a language
war, use whatever you're comfortable with is the bottom line. My first
language was machine code "compiled" through a GW-BASIC interpreter in
MeSsy-DOS 3.1 - that was a lot of fun ;)> ! So I tend to go for simplest to
market approach these days.

Really, Python? Why go with an interpreted language over a
compiled--since this type of program would be used so frequently by
individuals that might not have a Python compiler?

I actually thought it was a worthy entry. I do agree, on the
networking
portions. Both solutions so far are lacking the actual transmission
phase.
Wasn't that part of the approximate 10 lines? I prefer C myself, or
better
yet Python.

First, you used multiple methods per line (bad coding practice).
Second,
where is the JAVA code?
All in all:
Interesting, but, where is the networking portion of your code? You
only
completed a small portion of the challenge. Care to add some
networking to
your entry and then see if your still at 10 lines?

It could be done in 10 lines. See below implementation using our
EDI language EDI-C.
main () {
xmlelem CatName attlist (CategoryName);
xmldoc Data {CatName; };
EXEC SQL CONNECT TO :"database" USER :"someuser" USING
:"somepassword";
EXEC SQL DECLARE cur CURSOR FOR SELECT CategoryName FROM Categories;
for (integer i = 1; SQLSTATE == "00000"; ++i)
EXEC SQL FETCH cur INTO :Data.CatName[i].#CategoryName;
xmlwrite (Data, "somefile.xml");
EXEC SQL DISCONNECT :"database";
}
