Re: [xml] DOM parser uses SAX2
Hi Nick , Thank you very much for your explanation.It really helps. >From test file I meant sample *.xml file that can be used to go for statement coverage. For example I got a *.xml file in test folder of libxml2 extracted source directory that contained a long element name more than 4000 characters and it was possible for me to hit a debug point related to such a large element name handling. Similarly xml files with utf8 and utf16 helped in covering encoding related if conditions in encoding.c source file.

There's nothing special about that, just like you could walk a DOM tree to generate SAX events. Also tell me is there a way to get statement coverage for all the path in libxml2 source files. You can get coverage reports with the usual compiler options and tools. Can I get more test files ? What do you mean by "more test files"?

[xml] DOM parser uses SAX2
Hi All, I have a doubt regarding libxml2 . As I was reading info on XML parsers, I got to know two types DOM and SAX . DOM needs more memory to build the complete DOM tree. However SAX does partial incremental parsing and consumes less memory. But while checking libxml2 code I saw the DOM parser making calls to functions in sax2.c . So I am wondering why and how DOM can use SAX ? Are they not completely different ? Also tell me is there a way to get statement coverage for all the path in libxml2 source files. Can I get more test files ? Thanks & Regards Akash ___ xml mailing list, project page http://xmlsoft.org/ xml@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/xml
