Re: Lua vs. XML

["Yang Fan" <missdeer@...>]

Hi, Alexander Gladysh

	I used ltxml ever, but it fails sometimes, I could not figure out the bug. And then I wrote an extremely simple Xerces-C++ ( maybe much heavier for your needs ) DOM  api binding myself, it was tested on Windows box only, but I'm not sure if there are no other bugs. You can check the source code from http://code.google.com/p/lua-binding-libraries/ , good luck!
