RapidXML, reading and saving values
- by Layne
Hello,
I've worked myself through the rapidXML sources and managed to read some values. Now I want to change them and save them to my XML file:
Parsing file and set a pointer
void SettingsHandler::getConfigFile() {
pcSourceConfig = parsing->readFileInChar(CONF);
cfg.parse<0>(pcSourceConfig);
}
Reading values from XML
void SettingsHandler::getDefinitions() {
SettingsHandler::getConfigFile();
stGeneral = cfg.first_node("settings")->value();
/* stGeneral = 60 */
}
Changing values and saving to file
void SettingsHandler::setDefinitions() {
SettingsHandler::getConfigFile();
stGeneral = "10";
cfg.first_node("settings")->value(stGeneral.c_str());
std::stringstream sStream;
sStream << *cfg.first_node();
std::ofstream ofFileToWrite;
ofFileToWrite.open(CONF, std::ios::trunc);
ofFileToWrite << "<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>\n" << sStream.str() << '\0';
ofFileToWrite.close();
}
Reading file into buffer
char* Parser::readFileInChar(const char* p_pccFile) {
char* cpBuffer;
size_t sSize;
std::ifstream ifFileToRead;
ifFileToRead.open(p_pccFile, std::ios::binary);
sSize = Parser::getFileLength(&ifFileToRead);
cpBuffer = new char[sSize];
ifFileToRead.read( cpBuffer, sSize);
ifFileToRead.close();
return cpBuffer;
}
However, it's not possible to save the new value. My code is just saving the original file with a value of "60" where it should be "10".
