Detailed Description

Helper class to create XML files using "printf", "fprintf", "cout",... functions.

The ToXMLStringTool class helps you creating XML files using "printf", "fprintf", "cout",... functions. The "ToXMLStringTool" class is processing strings so that all the characters &,",',<,> are replaced by their XML equivalent:

&, ", ', <, > 

Using the "ToXMLStringTool class" and the "fprintf function" is THE most efficient way to produce VERY large XML documents VERY fast.

Note:

If you are creating from scratch an XML file using the provided XMLNode class you must not use the "ToXMLStringTool" class (because the "XMLNode" class does the processing job for you during rendering).
