Processing XML files

[cholzwarth]

I am writing a requirements document for parameterized builds. I want to use XML files to drive the build. There are layers of XML files. The outer layer is the release XML. It will have several basic sections. The first is the list of XML files that contain XML to define environment set up. The second section contains a list of XML files that contain information about what to compile. The third section contains a list of XML files that determine what artifacts are to be gathered.

I have found the Visual Build Pro read XML, but don't see any that allow me to iterate through the XML. Do such primatives exist in Visual Build Pro? Most of what I have seen used is either in VB Script or perl.

See the 'Process XML config data' section of the XML.bld sample.

Hello,
I have a very similar task. I am running ver 8.5. In the help or manual I couldn’t find xml.bld example. Would you please give a more detail explanation on the subject?
Thank you

Samples\XML.bld in the installation folder (C:\Program Files\VisBuildPro8 or C:\Program Files (x86)\VisBuildPro8).
