xmlFormat

Format a Scilab variable into XML

Calling Sequence

xmlCode = xmlFormat(scilabVar)

Arguments

:scilabVar scilabVar, a Scilab’s variable : :xmlCode xmlCode, a string containing XML code :

Description

This function does nothing by itself ! It needs to be overloaded to be useful.

It is used when a Scilab variable is inserted in the XML tree.

Examples

doc = `xmlReadStr`_("<root><a att=""foo"" rib=""bar""><b>Hello</b></a></root>");
// This code will fail:
// doc.root.children(1.5) = 1.23456;

// Now we define %s_xmlFormat to handle double type
// Take care, in this example, the double matrix is not handled
function y=%s_xmlFormat(x), y="<number>" + `string`_(x) + "</number>", endfunction;

// we retry a number insertion
doc.root.children(1.5) = 1.23456;
`xmlDump`_(doc)

xmlDelete(doc);
