About:
TinyXML is a simple, small, C++ XML parser that can read and write XML documents. It provides a DOM-style interface for navigating and manipulating the XML tree structure in memory. Its main value proposition is its lightweight nature and ease of integration into projects without requiring external dependencies.
Key Features:
  • Simple DOM interface for easy navigation
  • No external dependencies (header-only style)
  • Small memory footprint
  • Easy to integrate into existing C++ projects
Use Cases:
  • Parsing configuration files in C++ applications
  • Reading and writing simple data exchange formats
  • Game development for asset and save file management
Alternatives:
  • pugixml – More modern, faster, and fully standards-compliant
  • libxml2 – More feature-rich and complex, supports multiple standards
