TODO for the XML parser: - Support for UTF-8 and UTF-16 encoding (Urgent !!!). - progressive parsing. The entity support is a first step toward asbtraction of an input stream. A large part of the context is still located on the stack, moving to a state machine and putting everyting in the parsing context should provide an adequate solution. - DOM support, instead of using a proprietary in memory format for the document representation, the parser should call a DOM API to actually build the resulting document. Then the parser becomes independent of the in-memory representation of the document. Even better using RPC's the parser can actually build the document in another program. - Support for Comments (bad, should be in ASAP, they are parsed but not stored), should be configurable. - Improve the support of entities on save (+SAX). Done: - C++ support : John Ehresman - Updated code to follow more recent specs, added compatibility flag - Better error handling, use a dedicated, overridable error handling function. - Support for CDATA. - Keep track of line numbers for better error reporting. - Support for PI (SAX one). $Id: TODO,v 1.7 1998/08/13 04:54:36 daniel Exp $
