The reason Xerces behaves so "Java-like" is mainly because it implements
interfaces like SAX, which was invented in the Java world, and DOM, which
was specifically invented to be 'clean' OO (meaning no templates). AFAIK
there is no native C++ interface to XML.

You could always use XML::Xerces which is the perl interface to
Xerces-C, available at xml.apache.org.

Those features are standard in all compilers since a couple of years
ago, at least; and templates, at least 4 years before that. Besides,
nowadays, you can write pretty portable, #ifdef-free, code in C++; major
compilers, like GNU c++ and VC++, c

In addition to being "un-STL-like" and "un-PERL-like", when you get into
the XMLPlatformUtils and the framework's insistence to returning memory
managed objects rather than pointers, it gets kind of "un-C++-like".
But, as you point out, options are few... Also, given the number of
target operatin
Hi,
Just compiled my first xerces-c++ program, and so far, so good, but I
found some things I didn't like. The first thing is that it's very
un-STL-like, that is, STL is barely used (for instance, DOMString is
used instead of the STL string, which already takes into account locale
and all
