<div class="markdown_content"><p>Please add some member functions to CppUnit::XmlElement, providing access to its attributes. Such member functions would be very helpful to me! Read-only access would be sufficient to me. (I would like to use XML to specify a custom selection of tests, having an XML element for each selected test, having the name of the test as attribute.)</p> <p>The current version of CppUnit::XmlElement only has addAttribute functions:<br /> <a href="http://cppunit.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/cppunit/cppunit/include/cppunit/tools/XmlElement.h?revision=1.6">http://cppunit.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/cppunit/cppunit/include/cppunit/tools/XmlElement.h?revision=1.6</a></p> <p>It seems quite natural to add the following functions:</p> <p>int attributeCount() const;<br /> std::string attributeNameAt( int index ) const;<br /> std::string attributeValueAt( int index ) const;</p> <p>So please consider the attached patch. The patch includes the implementation of those functions, as well as their tests.</p></div>
