libcurl with pugixml

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Use this request type if there is something you need to do with pugixml and
you don't know how.

What do you need to do with pugixml? Please provide a description of the
problem along with sample usage scenario.

I am using libcurl to fetch xml content through a http:// request. the 
writefunction in libcurl, returns entire XML content in 2-3 chunks, do all 
load_buffer* functions expect entire XML content before being called or is it 
possible to begin loading in chunks?

Thanks

It's impossible to load XML document in chunks; you'll have to wait for all 
content to arrive and store it in a single contiguous buffer before calling 
load_buffer.

Alternatively, if libcurl provides a C++ stream, you can load a document from 
it using load() function; pugixml will internally read all data from the stream 
to a contiguous buffer. If you go that way, make sure to use the trunk version 
instead of 1.0, since 1.0 does not support non-seekable streams (any HTTP 
stream is unlikely to support seeks).
