    Parse and validate an XML file with an xmlReader

Demonstrate the use of xmlReaderForFile() to parse an XML file validating the content in the process and activating options like entities substitution, and DTD attributes defaulting. (Note that the XMLReader functions require libxml2 version later than 2.6.)
reader2 <valid_xml_filename>

    Load a document, locate subelements with XPath, modify said elements and save the resulting document.

Shows how to make a full round-trip from a load/edit/save

    Evaluate XPath expression and prints result node set.

Shows how to evaluate XPath expression and register known namespaces in XPath context.
xpath1 <xml-file> <xpath-expr> [<known-ns-list>]
./xpath1 test3.xml '//child2' > xpath1.tmp ; diff xpath1.tmp xpath1.res ; rm xpath1.tmp

    Creates a tree

Shows how to create document, nodes and dump it to stdout or file.

    Parse an XML file with an xmlReader

Demonstrate the use of xmlReaderForFile() to parse an XML file and dump the informations about the nodes found in the process. (Note that the XMLReader functions require libxml2 version later than 2.6.)

    use various APIs for the xmlWriter

tests a number of APIs for the xmlWriter, especially the various methods to write to a filename, to a memory buffer, to a new document, or to a subtree. It shows how to do encoding string conversions too. The resulting documents are then serialized.
