Probably, the fact that its tarball is comparable in size to the entire Boost? Another thing is that it's not a big friend of C++ standard library. For example, it does not use std::string, but its own XMLString class. Going back to original post, I wonder how the proposed library differers from http://gmetadom.sourceforge.net/, which is wrapper on gdome, which is wrapper on libxml. As another implementation worth checking out, I can recommend CenterPoint/XML (http://www.cpointc.com/XML/). This one is small, and is quite nice, IMO. If my colleagues can ever be persuaded to move away from home-grown hierarchical format with home-grown API to something somre standard, I'll propose this library first. The only problem with it that there's no XPath support. HTH, Volodya _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
