DOMDocumentFragment from XMLCh

[Ben Griffin <be...@redsnapper.net>]

How do I instantiate a DOMDocumentFragment from a XMLCh* (or XMLByte* )?
Alternatively, where can I find sample code for that?

Thanks in advance!

Actually, it was a mistake on my behalf.
I used the 'wrap in a root element' trick, and then realised that it  
wasn't going to give me what I wanted anyway.
It turned out that what I wanted was a DOMLSInput so that I could use  
parseWithContext - which (unfortunately) is not supported, so I had to  
roll my own, which allowed for me to parse in a DOMDocument , or  
handle attributes etc. separately - which provided a far better, and  
context-sensitive, solution.

My basic home-rolled parseWithContext is not much more of a switch of  
( contextNode->getNodeType()), with each case having another switch  
across the ActionType parameter - but it appears to to what I need it  
to do. (I was hoping that parseWithContext would be implemented of  
course!)

However, thanks for your suggestion!

If the stream contains a well-formed document, you can just parse it 
using one of the DOM parsers.  See the MemParse sample for the details.

Is there some reason you need a document fragment, rather than just a 
document?  Perhaps it's because the stream doesn't contain a well-formed 
document?  If that's the case, you'll need to wrap it in a single root 
element to parse it.
