Reading & Writing XML

Overview

The engine includes an XML parsing and saving library by default in order to easily support cases of storing data in XML.

Loading

To load an XML from buffer, see ISystem::LoadXmlFromBuffer - this allows for parsing from a string into an XmlNodeRef object that can be programatically parsed.

Saving

Saving an XML node can be done using IXmlNode::saveToFile. We can either use an existing XML node loaded from a buffer or file (see above) - or create a new XML node from scratch using the ISystem::CreateXmlNode function.
