http://xmlsoft.org/FAQ.html#Developer item 12 > We prefer to do this with a function than a cast if possible. If you're asking for a function, then that means you didn't understand the concept behind xmlChar* If your char * points to a zero terminated string in UTF-8 encoding then a cast *is* the proper way. If it's not that will depend on your encoding and no generic function can do it one way or another, except an encoding conversion function like iconv.
