    Overview

    XML 1.0 / 1.1 parser

    A from-scratch XML implementation, loosely modelled on the spec.

    Features: Supports enough of the XML 1.0/1.1 spec to handle the 99.9% of XML documents in common current usage. Simple to understand and use. Small.

    Caveats: We do NOT support HTML in this package, as that may or may not be valid XML. If it works, great. If it doesn't, that's not considered a bug.

    We do NOT support UTF-16. If you have a UTF-16 XML file, please convert it to UTF-8 first. Also, our condolences. <[!ELEMENT and <[!ATTLIST are not supported, and will be either ignored or return an error depending on the parser options.

    MAYBE: XML writer? Serialize/deserialize Odin types?

    A comment ends when we see -->, preceded by a character that's not a dash. "For compatibility, the string "--" (double-hyphen) must not occur within comments."

    See: https://www.w3.org/TR/2006/REC-xml11-20060816/#dt-comment

    Thanks to the length (4) of the comment start, we also have enough lookback, and the peek at the next byte asserts that there's at least one more character that's a >.
