There were no string-symbol comparison in the code I checked. The parser converted all tagnames to symbols and the queries expected symbol arguments, so symbols were compared with symbols. The problem with this approach is that the symbol table is spammed with all the tags found in the xml document and parsing is slower. The queries are faster of course (if no namespaces are involved). Btw is the package ment to be cross-dialect?
Not that I am aware of. Maybe Dale ported it to Gemstone, but I am not sure. Cheers, Alexandre -- _,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;: Alexandre Bergel http://www.bergel.eu ^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;.
