/**
    @class wxXmlNode

    Represents a node in an XML document. See wxXmlDocument.

    Node has a name and may have content and attributes.

    Most common node types are @c wxXML_TEXT_NODE (name and attributes are irrelevant)
    and @c wxXML_ELEMENT_NODE.

    Example: in <tt>\<title\>hi\</title\></tt> there is an element with the name
    @c title and irrelevant content and one child of type @c wxXML_TEXT_NODE
    with @c hi as content.

    If @c wxUSE_UNICODE is 0, all strings are encoded in the encoding given to
    wxXmlDocument::Load (default is UTF-8).

/**
    @class wxXmlDocument

    This class holds XML data/document as parsed by XML parser in the root node.

    wxXmlDocument internally uses the expat library which comes with wxWidgets to
    parse the given stream.

    A simple example of using XML classes is:

    @code
    wxXmlDocument doc;
    if (!doc.Load("myfile.xml"))
        return false;

    // start processing the XML file
    if (doc.GetRoot()->GetName() != "myroot-node")
        return false;

    wxXmlNode *child = doc.GetRoot()->GetChildren();
    while (child) {

        if (child->GetName() == "tag1") {

            // process text enclosed by tag1/tag1
            wxString content = child->GetNodeContent();

            ...

            // process attributes of tag1
            wxString attrvalue1 =
                child->GetAttribute("attr1", "default-value");
            wxString attrvalue2 =
                child->GetAttribute("attr2", "default-value");

            ...

        } else if (child->GetName() == "tag2") {

            // process tag2 ...
        }

        child = child->GetNext();
    }
    @endcode

    Note that if you want to preserve the original formatting of the loaded file
    including whitespaces and indentation, you need to turn off whitespace-only
    textnode removal and automatic indentation:

    @code
    wxXmlDocument doc;
    doc.Load("myfile.xml", "UTF-8", wxXMLDOC_KEEP_WHITESPACE_NODES);

    // myfile2.xml will be identical to myfile.xml saving it this way:
    doc.Save("myfile2.xml", wxXML_NO_INDENTATION);
    @endcode

    Using default parameters, you will get a reformatted document which in general
    is different from the original loaded content:

    @code
    wxXmlDocument doc;
    doc.Load("myfile.xml");
    doc.Save("myfile2.xml");  // myfile2.xml != myfile.xml
    @endcode
