/*! \mainpage XMLParser library
 * \section intro_sec Introduction
 *
 * This is a basic XML parser written in ANSI C++ for portability.
 * It works by using recursion and a node tree for breaking
 * down the elements of an XML document.

 *
 * \section tutorial First Tutorial
 * You can follow a simple <a href="../../xmlParser.html">Tutorial</a> to know
 the basics...
 *
 * \section usage General usage: How to include the XMLParser library inside
 your project.
 *
 * The library is composed of two files: <a
 href="../../xmlParser.cpp">xmlParser.cpp</a> and
 * <a href="../../xmlParser.h">xmlParser.h</a>. These are the ONLY 2 files that
 you need when
 * using the library inside your own projects.
 *
 * All the functions of the library are documented inside the comments of the
 file
 * <a href="../../xmlParser.h">xmlParser.h</a>. These comments can be
 transformed in
 * full-fledged HTML documentation using the DOXYGEN software: simply type:
 "doxygen doxy.cfg"
 *
 * By default, the XMLParser library uses (char*) for string representation.To
 use the (wchar_t*)
 * version of the library, you need to define the "_UNICODE" preprocessor
 definition variable
 * (this is usually done inside your project definition file) (This is done
 automatically for you
 * when using Visual Studio).
 *
 * \section example Advanced Tutorial and Many Examples of usage.
 *
 * Some very small introductory examples are described inside the Tutorial file
 * <a href="../../xmlParser.html">xmlParser.html</a>
 *
 * Some additional small examples are also inside the file <a
 href="../../xmlTest.cpp">xmlTest.cpp</a>
 * (for the "char*" version of the library) and inside the file
 * <a href="../../xmlTestUnicode.cpp">xmlTestUnicode.cpp</a> (for the "wchar_t*"
 * version of the library). If you have a question, please review these
 additionnal examples
 * before sending an e-mail to the author.
 *
 * To build the examples:
 * - linux/unix: type "make"
 * - solaris: type "make -f makefile.solaris"
 * - windows: Visual Studio: double-click on xmlParser.dsw
 *   (under Visual Studio .NET, the .dsp and .dsw files will be automatically
 converted to .vcproj and .sln files)
 *
 * In order to build the examples you need some additional files:
 * - linux/unix: makefile
 * - solaris: makefile.solaris
 * - windows: Visual Studio: *.dsp, xmlParser.dsw and also xmlParser.lib and
 xmlParser.dll
 *
 * \section debugging Debugging with the XMLParser library
 *
 * \subsection debugwin Debugging under WINDOWS
 *
 *      Inside Visual C++, the "debug versions" of the memory allocation functions
 are
 *      very slow: Do not forget to compile in "release mode" to get maximum speed.
 *      When I have to debug a software that is using the XMLParser Library, it
 was usually
 *      a nightmare because the library was sooOOOoooo slow in debug mode (because
 of the
 *  slow memory allocations in Debug mode). To solve this
 *      problem, during all the debugging session, I use a very fast DLL version
 of the
 *      XMLParser Library (the DLL is compiled in release mode). Using the DLL
 version of
 *      the XMLParser Library allows me to have lightening XML parsing speed even
 in debug!
 *      Other than that, the DLL version is useless: In the release version of my
 tool,
 *      I always use the normal, ".cpp"-based, XMLParser Library (I simply include
 the
 * <a href="../../xmlParser.cpp">xmlParser.cpp</a> and
 * <a href="../../xmlParser.h">xmlParser.h</a> files into the project).
 *
 *      The file <a href="../../XMLNodeAutoexp.txt">XMLNodeAutoexp.txt</a>
 contains some
 * "tweaks" that improve substancially the display of the content of the XMLNode
 objects
 * inside the Visual Studio Debugger. Believe me, once you have seen inside the
 debugger
 * the "smooth" display of the XMLNode objects, you cannot live without it
 anymore!
 *
 * \subsection debuglinux Debugging under LINUX/UNIX
 *
 *      The speed of the debug version of the XMLParser library is tolerable so no
 extra
 * work.has been done.

         *
         * @param characterEncoding This parameter is only meaningful when compiling
         * in char* mode (multibyte character mode).
         *     In wchar_t* (wide char mode), this parameter is ignored. This
         * parameter should be one of the
         *     three currently recognized encodings: XMLNode::encoding_UTF8,
         * XMLNode::encoding_ascii,
         *     XMLNode::encoding_ShiftJIS.
         *
         * @param dropWhiteSpace In most situations, text fields containing only
         * white spaces (and carriage returns)
         *     are useless. Even more, these "empty" text fields are annoying
         * because they increase the
         *     complexity of the user's code for parsing. So, 99% of the time, it's
         * better to drop
         *     the "empty" text fields. However The XML specification indicates that
         * no white spaces
         *     should be lost when parsing the file. So to be perfectly
         * XML-compliant, you should set
         *     dropWhiteSpace=0. A note of caution: if you set "dropWhiteSpace=0",
         * the parser will be
         *     slower and your code will be more complex.
         *
         * @param removeCommentsInMiddleOfText To explain this parameter, let's
         * consider this code:
         * \code
         *        XMLNode x=XMLNode::parseString("<a>foo<!-- hello -->bar<!DOCTYPE
         * world >chu</a>","a");
         * \endcode
         *     If removeCommentsInMiddleOfText=0, then we will have:
         * \code
         *        x.getText(0) -> "foo"
         *        x.getText(1) -> "bar"
         *        x.getText(2) -> "chu"
         *        x.getClear(0) --> "<!-- hello -->"
         *        x.getClear(1) --> "<!DOCTYPE world >"
         * \endcode
         *     If removeCommentsInMiddleOfText=1, then we will have:
         * \code
         *        x.getText(0) -> "foobar"
         *        x.getText(1) -> "chu"
         *        x.getClear(0) --> "<!DOCTYPE world >"
         * \endcode
         *
         * \return "0" when there are no errors. If you try to set an unrecognized
         * encoding then the return value will be "1" to signal an error.
         *
         * \note Sometime, it's useful to set "guessWideCharChars=0" to disable any
         * conversion
         * because the test to detect the file-type (ASCII/UTF8/char* or WideChar)
         * may fail (rarely). */
