This is useful, as I can call such function from debugger (using .call in WinDbg) and immediately get class contents as xml (i.e SwNodes as xml). This function accepts only one parameter - pointer to class. Such pointer can be found in locals window in debugger. So dumping any class to debug output become easy and quick task, without rewriting and recompiling code.</div> <div><br> </div> <div>The code itself is at the end of this message (this is draft code, written quickly).</div> <div><br> </div> <div>I can make this code better (add cross-platform'ness as it depends on OutputDebugStringA and I'm not sure that it exists in any other OS than Windows), and submit as patch to master. Also I can add several lines here on how to use my function to get xml dump during debugging <span style="font-size: 12pt;"><a href="https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/How_to_debug#Debugging_options">https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/How_to_debug#Debugging_options</a></span></div> <div><br> </div> <div>If all this makes sense and can be useful not only for me?</div> <div><br> </div> <div>---------------------------- Dumper function code ----------------------------------------</div> <div><br> </div> <div> template <typename ClassWithDumpAsXml><br> void DumpXmlToDebug(ClassWithDumpAsXml& tDumpedToDebug)<br> {<br> <br> xmlDocPtr doc;<br> xmlChar *xmlbuff;<br> int buffersize;<br> <br> xmlTextWriterPtr xmlWrt = xmlNewTextWriterDoc(&doc, 0);<br> assert(xmlWrt);<br> <br> if (xmlTextWriterStartDocument(xmlWrt, NULL, "ISO-8859-1", NULL) < 0)<br> OutputDebugStringA("\n\nerror in xmlTextWriterStartDocument \n\n");<br> <br> tDumpedToDebug.dumpAsXml(xmlWrt);<br> <br> </div> <div>if (xmlTextWriterEndDocument(xmlWrt) < 0)<br> OutputDebugStringA("\n\nerror in xmlTextWriterEndDocument \n\n");<br> <br> xmlDocDumpFormatMemory(doc, &xmlbuff, &buffersize, 1);<br> <br> std::stringstream dbg;<br> dbg << "\n !!!!!!-------- !!!!!!!\n !!
