Re: [dsdp-ercp-dev] microXML implementation and contenttype bundle

[Mark Rogalski <rogalski@xxxxxxxxxx>]

It would be good if you posted this
info to the platform dev list. We need to keep the platform guys aware
that their components are also used in eRCP and that use of APIs not available
on CDC/Foundation based devices should be avoided if at all possible in
order to maintain compatibility.

Subject	Re: [dsdp-ercp-dev] microXML implementation and contenttype bundle

Hi, Philippe,

I will try to provide a test code for the bug ASAP.

About the second paragraph. My only concerns about microXML missing
features are about the interaction between it and the contenttype
bundle.  I think that you are correct and keeping the XML implementation
as minimal as possible is a good thing in embedded software. The
question here is more like: how will this exact problem and the future
ones be handled?

Perhaps, resolving these tiny (I think they don't change the contenttype
behavior a lot) problems should be postponed for now. After all, if
someone needs perfect work from the contenttype, he can always use one
of the fully compliant xml parsers. The rest of developers can happily
use microXML implementation. Is this what you suggested?

Regards,
Danail Nachev
