Re: [xml-dev] Real time XML Parser

[Jeff Greif <jgreif@alumni.princeton.edu>]

You could do this using almost any C or C++ XML parser.  For instance, using
expat (ftp://ftp.jclark.com/pub/xml/expat.zip), you fread into a buffer from
the stream hooked to the serial port on which the modem sits, and parse each
buffer, generating and handling SAX events.  You could use select(2) or
non-blocking i/o or an event-based framework (such as the ACE Reactor
www.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/ACE.html) to avoid polling the modem stream.
