Personally I think the Standard C++ Library is the way to go for all C++ standardization in the future. I'll strech to adapt to SAX' use of the standard library, where my own build environments are lacking today. If you want low overhead, there's always C, or your own SAX-like interface. Besides, in the particular environment you cite above, I don't think you'd be able to achive parser plugability anyways, because alternative parsers might need library features you don't support. > So either it has to be wchar_t It has to be SAXChar, actually, since wchar_t will be 32bit on some platforms. xml-dev: A list for W3C XML Developers.
