## Quick Overview
It's quiet simple. NSXMLDocument and NSXMLElement each have a new method: toDictionary.
[myXMLDoc toDictionary]; //Returns a dictionary representation of the xml document.
// See AIXMLElementSerialize.h for more info
## Using the Framework on OS X
Add an existing framework and select the AIXMLSerialization.framework. Then include the
header:
#import <AIXMLSerialization/AIXMLSerialization.h>
## Using on the iPhone
Copy over the files in the 'src' and 'vendor/kissxml' directories to your project.
In the build settings set "Other linker flags" to -lxml2
In the build settings set "Header search paths" to /usr/include/libxml2
#import "AIXMLSerialization.h"
The KissXML library is mapped to it's NSXML counterparts (e.g. NSXMLDocument points to DDXMLDocument)
and it's recommended that you use the NSXML prefix.
## GOALS
* Work on the iPhone and OS X. On the iPhone we can replace NSXML* with DDXML* from
KissXML (http://code.google.com/p/kissxml/) which aims to be a direct replacement for
NSXML on the iPhone.
## TODO
* Type checking and conversion
* NSDictionary to XML
## Running the benchmark
WARNING: committees.xml is 257kb and is parsed over 2500 times so it will take a
while.
Simply build the foundation tool (command+B) and run:
./benchmark -f FILE_TO_PARSE -p yes
// -f (REQUIRED) - File to parse
// -p (OPTIONAL) - Print output
## Running Unit Tests
1. Build unittests bundle (command+b)
2. Set otest as active executable
3. command+alt+y (Run->Debug)
