libZI Description

libZI is a library that allows developers to store configuration information into an xml-file. libZI is a library that allows developers to store configuration information into an xml-file using a predefined and common syntax structure. The following encompasses the rationale behind such a library: It has become common in Unix based environments to store configuration information into text-files.The problem, however, became the lack of a designated syntax and storage types. The solution, libZI, a typesafe way of storing and retrieving data from an xml file that appears completely seamless to the developer, for he or she does not have to worry about type conversions -- libZI handles it itself.At present, libZI has the rough capability of an old Windows *.ini file. Simply, it lacks tree capabilities. That will be integrated into its design later on. Despite that limitation, the library supports storing and retrieving the primitive datatypes from C/C++.The library is still in its development state, and will probably remain there for a while. As for the syntax for libZI's output, that should remain rather consistent throughout the versions with the exception of some tag additions.Adding the the consistency of libZI, it asserts itself as a cross-platform library. Its foundation resides on use of libXML2 (See II for further information). This means at the time of writing this, Linux, Unix, CygWin, MacOS (X), RISC OS, OS/2, VMS, and QNX should support libZI through its libXML foundation.Requirements:· ibxml2· zlib Requirements: · ibxml2 · zlib
