I have C++Builder 5 Enterprise and I have run the demo using Midas and
XML etc.

What I am looking for is a tool that will convert an incoming XML
request into its data elements without having anything to do with MIDAS.
This converted XML will then allow me to retrieve data from a legacy
host via an appropriate terminal emulation.

I have had a look at XMLBroker and was wondering if that would do the
job, without having to use the data provider, or are there more
appropriate tools out ther (that are not written in Java).

Has anyone got any ideas?

Hi Mischa,

I'm using BCB4, so I don't know what the demo and the XMLBroker is
all about. If you search for a general XML parser, you could try the
Xerces parser from Apache (http://xml.apache.org) or xml4c from
IBM (http://www.alphaworks.ibm.com/tech/xml4c), which is basically
the same source from Apache with more unicode encoding support.

It was not very easy to get it up and running because the Win32
project files (yes, you have to build it from source), are for VC++,
and the API documentation could really be enhanced. But it's free,
and I think it was worth the time.

best regards,
Dirk
