Best XML C ++ library, quick setup

I was wondering what is the best XML library in C ++ (I use Visual Studio), given that quick setup is crucial. Basically, I want to create a file to save annotations in various .avi files.

Thanks in advance.

You can get TinyXML in minutes.

TinyXML is simple enough for almost all of your goals (unless you are worried about having the entire xml view in memory), but other libraries offer more important features:

  • RapidXML is made really really fast. It is used in the boost :: property_tree library for the read / write functions of xml files. If you already use boost, using direct boost :: property_tree might be a good idea if necessary, as you can already easily use it using a simple interface.
  • pugiXML is referred to as a good replacement for RapidXML by someone on the mailing list, but I don't know the difference.
  • Xerces-C ++ is designed so that you can manipulate at a high level in xml, for example, using xsd files, but in fact it is very hard on speed and memory size ...
  • wrappers around classic C xml libraries (like LibXML2) can be interesting if you don't find what you are looking for the previous ones ...

I used Xerces C ++ in the past, and it was relatively painless to work and work.

I am currently using MSXML and it hurts.
