Introduce a notable behavior change in default parsing mode: documents without a document element node are now considered invalid. This is technically a breaking change, however the amount of documents it affects is very small, all parsed data still persists, and lack of this check results in very confusing behavior in a number of cases. In order to be able to parse documents without an element node, a fragment parsing flag is introduced. Parsing a buffer in fragment mode treats the buffer as a fragment of a valid XML. As a consequence, top-level PCDATA is added to the tree; additionally, there are no restrictions on the number of nodes -- so documents without a document element are considered valid. Due to the way parsing works internally, load_buffer_inplace occasionally can not preserve the document contents if it's parsed in a fragment mode. While unfortunate, this problem is fundamental; since the use case is relatively obscure, hopefully documenting this shortcoming will be enough. git-svn-id: https://pugixml.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@980 99668b35-9821-0410-8761-19e4c4f06640 |

pugixml 
pugixml is a C++ XML processing library, which consists of a DOM-like interface with rich traversal/modification capabilities, an extremely fast XML parser which constructs the DOM tree from an XML file/buffer, and an XPath 1.0 implementation for complex data-driven tree queries. Full Unicode support is also available, with Unicode interface variants and conversions between different Unicode encodings (which happen automatically during parsing/saving).
pugixml is used by a lot of projects, both open-source and proprietary, for performance and easy-to-use interface.
Documentation
Documentation for the current release of pugixml is available on-line as two separate documents:
- Quick-start guide, that aims to provide enough information to start using the library;
- Complete reference manual, that describes all features of the library in detail.
You’re advised to start with the quick-start guide; however, many important library features are either not described in it at all or only mentioned briefly; if you require more information you should read the complete manual.
