Update: 20170424 - Now replaced with fgsetxml... using xmpParse library... This project is depreciated
This small project was to explore the libXml2 UI, and building from source requires finding libXml2 in your system.
It is built to only handle FlightGear special Aircraft ...-set.xml file. And the file should be in the standard fgdata base data directory, since it has some quite special relative path handling. And it must find the correct 'root' node name, <PropertyList>
But aside from that it is a reasonable example of how to find and extract specific data from a 'known' xml file.
The building is using cmake to find libXml2, and generate the desired build files.
So for a standard unix makefile build
$ cd build
$ cmake .. [-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX]
$ make
$ [sudo] make install (if desired)
For Windows, use the cmake GUI and set source directory, the binary directory to build, or
> cd build
> cmake .. [-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX]
> cmake --build . --config Release
> cmake --build . --config Release --target INSTALL (if desired)
