XML and C++

[billroper]

I'm fighting through using MSXML 6.0 right now and concluding that Microsoft really, really wants everyone to be using C# for this. Or maybe Visual Basic. Nevertheless, I'm doing it in C++ and the pain is tremendous.

I suspect it will get better later this week once I get done building the utilities that Microsoft doesn't seem to supply.

I was convinced a couple of software versions back that MS wanted to kill VC++ and force people to use other stuff that was less useful and more completely tied to Windows and other MS products. They don't actually want anyone using any software that doesn't generate royalties for them, and part of that agenda is to make sure it's hard to develop custom apps that are actually useful.
