Hi everyone,
I'm going to manipulate some XML files in my next project-- crawl through
the tags, compare if file X has the same nodes as file Y, and if not, what
the differences are and who's missing what. I'll also be comparing values
between nodes in the two files, for when both documents do have the same
named nodes. What .Net classes should I be looking at to accomplish these
tasks? Thanks a bunch.

Well there are lots of ways, Xml(Text)Reader is fast forward only pull
parsing that does not consume much resources even if you read through
big files.
XPathDocument reads the complete document into a tree structure
optimized for XPath navigation which is read only.
Then there is XmlDocument which also reads the complete document into a
tree structure but then allows manipulation of the tree and saving back.
If you want to compare XML files then the XML Diff and Patch tool
<http://msdn.microsoft. com/XML/XMLDownloads/default.aspx>
might be interesting for you.

my machine where it's easier to create backup copies, recover from
programming errors and so on, then upload the files to the server. All I'm
doing is extracting certain elements from each file and creating a different...

or XMLHttpRequest class in Mozilla, and when the server returns reply,
processes it in client side to run...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
