DOM and C Language doubt.

[Scamjunk]

I have the following :

-------------
hr = IXMLDOMDocument_createElement(WriteSession.pXMLDoc , nodename,
(void *)&tmpnode);
assert(SUCCEEDED(hr));

hr = IXMLDOMElement_setAttribute(tmpnode, attname, Fieldname);
assert(SUCCEEDED(hr));
--------------

but the setAttribute part gives the following error:

-------------
error C2039: 'setAttribute' : is not a member of 'IXMLDOMNodeVtbl'
c:\program files\msxml 4.0\inc\msxml2.h(1600) : see declaration of
'IXMLDOMNodeVtbl'
Error executing cl.exe.
------------

the IXMLDOMNodeVtbl shows this part :

--------------
#if defined(__cplusplus) && !defined(CINTERFACE)

MIDL_INTERFACE("2933BF86-7B36-11d2-B20E-00C04F983E60")
IXMLDOMElement : public IXMLDOMNode
{
public:
...
virtual /* [helpstring][id] */ HRESULT STDMETHODCALLTYPE
setAttribute(
/* [in] */ BSTR name,
/* [in] */ VARIANT value) = 0;
------------------
Does this mean that this setAttribute thing can be used only with C++
and not with C?

Please let me know any mistakes you might notice that I am not able to
see.
thanks in advance.

Can't answer re that imnplementation but one quick note: DON'T use
createElement, createAttribute, or setAttribute -- switch to the
namespace-aware forms of those calls. The non-NS version should
***ONLY*** be used by code written before DOM Level 2 became avaialble.

When did DOM level 2 become available? I am trying to introduce
something to a code that was written more than an year back. Any help
would be useful.

See http://www.w3.org/DOM/DOMTR for a list of all the DOM
Recommendations and their dates. Most of Level 2 dates back to 2000.
