Hi Fasmers,

I´m not find any information about XML processing with FASM, it´s possible?

Well, it depends a bit on what you are looking for.

Obviously XML is just structured text so nothing prevents you from reading XML files and writing a parser in Fasm.

If you are looking for an off-the-shelf parser: you could link with libxml2, or use Micro$oft's XML parser (though maybe you have to go via ActiveX there, may not be a pleasant expereince to do that in Fasm)

0x4e71

Of course it's possible. What is XML? It's just a text which is formatted in some special way, which we all know. Just write a code to understand that special formatting

thanx for your idea 0x4e71!
it´s very interessant, using windows recurses ( object DOM MSXML2 for example)!

... and Reverend, i´m not coding a complex parser (XPath similar), but it´s possible too, thanx for your idea.

Check expat - it is a nice XML-parsing library.

Hallo All,
...
Update with structs and EQU 24.April.2008
...
This is my import library [21 Apr 2008] of libxml2 for FASM win32, from the file libxml2.lib version libxml2 2.6.30 downloadable from http://xmlsoft.org

with the LIB2DEF 2.1, utility of Vortex. Thanx,Thanx,Thanx to Vortex

I have also imported structs and equates [4 SAX STRUCTURES ARE NOT YET INCLUDED] with [H2INCX], another wonderful freeware utility at http://www.japheth.de.
Thanx,Thanx,Thanx to Japheth

I will include it as soon as i can, with the xsl import library too.

Requirements to properly function:
in path, the following files:

iconv.dll ---- (from iconv-1.9.2.win32.zip)
z1lib.dll ---- (from zlib-1.2.3.win32.zip)
libxml2.dll -- (from libxml2-2.6.30+.win32.zip)

All the files are freely downloadable from
http://xmlsoft.org

Attached Example of using LIBXML2
Hope it helps!

There is a pretty nice FASM XML parser which I've read through the source lately, it's called 'ASMXML' and the source is fully included in the download. They use an odd text viewer, which apparently 'folds' the source so it's easier to look at, but if you look at it in FASM it's horrible looking, with [c] and [of] everywhere! I hope it's what you're looking for.

Here is another one, also written in FASM.

unfortunately there isnt very much documentation, you have to go through the source
