Re: XML generator

O.K. but I'm not sure what you expect to find that will write out your XML
for you. The XML, presumably, is some reflection of the "info in memory"
part - which could be almost anything. I could imagine some version of:

--> ASIS --> DOM --> XML file

but the XML specification of the DOM didn't require some kind of output (or
input, for that matter. Big mistake IMHO) What you might build is:

--> ASIS --> DOM --> custom tree walk --> XML file

because that at least gives you a structure to work with. I just don't know
of any tools that do that for you already. (I've been tinkering with this a
bit, but don't have anything complete to offer. Maybe someone else did an
extension of the Ada XML stuff from: http://libre.act-europe.fr/xmlada/ but
it is unfortunately not part of the XML DOM specification.)
