Save an XML DOM Object to a File (Smart)
Saving an XML DOM object is also known as serializing the DOM. It involves a call to the save method on the DOM object. To demonstrate this, we will continue from the previous exercise, and save the DOM object that was loaded from stocks.xml to a different file, myStocks.xml.
This project uses the following files.
| Component | Description |
|---|---|
| Source: saveDOMsmart.cpp | Saves an XML DOM object, pXMLDom, to a new file. |
| Output | When you build and run the saveDOMsmart project, you should get this output in a console window. |
Create the loadDOMsmart Visual C++ project
- Create a Win32 console application in Visual C++. For detailed instructions on how to do this, see Set Up My Visual C++ Project. Name the project saveDOMsmartProj.
Next, we'll add the source code for the saveDOMsmart project.
