GSXML

[Stefan Urbanek]

Hi,

It was the first time I was using GSXML and I have few comments about it,
mostly about method naming. In GSXMLNode there is a method named -children. I
was expecting (by the method's name) to return an array of node's children, bt
it returns first child of the node.

Also some method names are abbreviated (prev, doc, setProp:). Well, it
requires less typing, but it is inconsistent with other GNUstep/Cocoa method
names (previous, document, setProperty: or setPropertyValue:).

In NSSet, for example, we have setWithArray:, setWithObject: and setWithSet:.
In GSXMLNode we have nodeFrom:. I think, it should be nodeFromData: (then we
can have nodeFromString: and similar).

There are just rather cosmetic things, but I think, appropriate and consistent
method naming makes writing code easier.

One question: is there an Objective-C XML library that is available for both
GNUstep and MacOS-X? Maybe some wrapper around libxml (like GSXML) and core
foundation with unified interface, so it is not needed to write the same code
twice.

Thank you,


Stefan
