The point is not to build a tree of potentially unbounded size (think XMPP). The point is to yield events in a non-blocking way (iterparse() is blocking, which makes it useless for non-blocking applications). An IncrementalTreeBuilder wouldn't have much point IMO. It is not more costly to accumulate a string and parse it at the end, than to progressively build a growing XML tree. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17741> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
