<this_tag k1="v1" k2="v2"><child>text</child></this_tag>

What you mean under "update"? Do you want to get event from Reader and change its content? You cannot change existing event, but you can create a new one. Then you can use that event as if it was read by Reader (its lifetime will be different although). You need Writer only if you want to write updated XML to somewhere.

Yes update data inside tag So It is possible to load xml with Writer And update data by the event? Thanks for your fast response (: Tzahi

The Readme actually gives you example of updating. In the example we read XML, get events and replace a start tag with name this_tag:

• we are create new tag with new name
• we are copy all attributes from readers' event. Here you can filter attributes which you copy and skip some of them
• we are add new attribute. If you'll add attribute with the same name as skipped on step two but with different value, you effectively update it
• we are write new tag instead of original

In the end we get updated document.
