XmlLite: Light-weight fast XML parser for native C++
Microsoft has released XmlLite, a light-weight fast XML parser exclusively for native C++. XmlLite is supposed to be a near-equivalent of System.Xml namespace of the managed world. I said "near-equivalent" because XmlLite is just a forward-only reader. It does not provide schema/DTD validation or DOM implementation. Neither does it support XPath or style sheets. So perhaps it is far from near-equivalent.
But what I like about this parser is that it focuses on performance and low overhead. More importantly, it is meant for native C++ apps. After all, MS hasn't fogotten the C++ community.
