<h2>Keeping both libxml-1.x and libxml-2.x compatibility:</h2>
<p>Here is the steps i applied successfully to a couple of gnome project
dependant on libxml to allow compilation under both environments:</p>
<ol>
<li>make sure your configure adds the output of "xml-config --cflags" to
the compiler command line</li>
<li>in your C files including libxml includes do the following
<pre>#include &lt;xmlmemory.h>
#if defined(LIBXML_VERSION) &amp;&amp; LIBXML_VERSION >= 20000
#include &lt;libxml/parser.h>
#include &lt;libxml/tree.h>
#define root children
#define childs children
#else
#include &lt;gnome-xml/parser.h>
#include &lt;gnome-xml/tree.h>
#endif</pre>
<p>the first include name is really specific to libxml and won't clash
with other installed softare includes. Once included we can tell
the version used and use prefixed path for the includes to safely
include headers like tree.h .</p>
<p>Second the two #defines allows to handle changes dones in the names of
public structures. Just make sure that you don't use the "root" name for
other structure in your module. Using xmlDocGetRootElement(doc) is the
proper way to access the root node now but is not available on old libxml
version (but present in 1.8.7).</p>
</li>
<li>libxml-2 generates "empty" text nodes for "formatting spaces" found in
the XML input. The proper way to handle this change is to check them (and
ignore them) when scanning an XML tree produced after libxml parsing. The
quick and dirty solution is to force libxml to the old behaviour of
ignoring those formatting spaces by adding the following code before any
call to the XML parser:
<pre>#if defined(LIBXML_VERSION) &amp;&amp; LIBXML_VERSION >= 20000
xmlKeepBlanksDefault(0);
#endif</pre>
</li>
</ol>
<p>Following those 3 steps should work. It worked for some of my own code and
for the gnome-print module. Other modules (including bonobo/gconf/nautilus)
will have to be patched in the same way. </p>
<p>Let me put some emphasis on the fact that there is far more changes from
libxml 1.x to 2.x than the ones you may have to pacth for. The overall code
libxml 1.x to 2.x than the ones you may have to patch for. The overall code
has been considerably improved and the conformance to the XML specification
has been drastically improve. Don't take those changes as an excuse to not
upgrade, it may cost a lot on the long term ...</p>
