#define LIBXML2_NEW_BUFFER;
Macro used to express that the API use the new buffers for xmlParserInputBuffer and xmlOutputBuffer. The change was introduced in 2.9.0.
#define XML_XML_NAMESPACE;
This is the namespace for the special xml: prefix predefined in the XML Namespace specification.
#define xmlChildrenNode;
Macro for compatibility naming layer with libxml1. Maps to "children."
#define xmlRootNode;
Macro for compatibility naming layer with libxml1. Maps to "children".

xmlNodePtr node,
const xmlChar * nameSpace)
Search a Ns registered under a given name space for a document. recurse on the parents until it finds the defined namespace or return NULL otherwise. @nameSpace can be NULL, this is a search for the default namespace. We don't allow to cross entities boundaries. If you don't declare the namespace within those you will be in troubles !!! A warning is generated to cover this case.
| doc: | the document | 
| node: | the current node | 
| nameSpace: | the namespace prefix | 
| Returns: | the namespace pointer or NULL. | 
xmlNsPtr xmlSearchNsByHref (xmlDocPtr doc,
xmlNodePtr node,
const xmlChar * href)
Search a Ns aliasing a given URI. Recurse on the parents until it finds the defined namespace or return NULL otherwise.
| doc: | the document | 
| node: | the current node | 
| href: | the namespace value | 
| Returns: | the namespace pointer or NULL. | 
void xmlSetBufferAllocationScheme (xmlBufferAllocationScheme scheme)
Set the buffer allocation method. Types are XML_BUFFER_ALLOC_EXACT - use exact sizes, keeps memory usage down XML_BUFFER_ALLOC_DOUBLEIT - double buffer when extra needed, improves performance
| scheme: | allocation method to use | 
void xmlSetCompressMode (int mode)
set the default compression mode used, ZLIB based Correct values: 0 (uncompressed) to 9 (max compression)
| mode: | the compression ratio | 
void xmlSetDocCompressMode (xmlDocPtr doc,
int mode)
set the compression ratio for a document, ZLIB based Correct values: 0 (uncompressed) to 9 (max compression)
| doc: | the document | 
| mode: | the compression ratio | 
void xmlSetListDoc (xmlNodePtr list,
xmlDocPtr doc)
update all nodes in the list to point to the right document
| list: | the first element | 
| doc: | the document | 
void xmlSetNs (xmlNodePtr node,
xmlNsPtr ns)
Associate a namespace to a node, a posteriori.
| node: | a node in the document | 
| ns: | a namespace pointer | 
xmlAttrPtr xmlSetNsProp (xmlNodePtr node,
xmlNsPtr ns,
const xmlChar * name,
const xmlChar * value)
Set (or reset) an attribute carried by a node. The ns structure must be in scope, this is not checked
xmlAttrPtr xmlSetProp (xmlNodePtr node,
const xmlChar * name,
const xmlChar * value)
Set (or reset) an attribute carried by a node. If @name has a prefix, then the corresponding namespace-binding will be used, if in scope; it is an error it there's no such ns-binding for the prefix in scope.
void xmlSetTreeDoc (xmlNodePtr tree,
xmlDocPtr doc)
update all nodes under the tree to point to the right document
| tree: | the top element | 
| doc: | the document | 
xmlChar * xmlSplitQName2 (const xmlChar * name,
xmlChar ** prefix)
parse an XML qualified name string [NS 5] QName ::= (Prefix ':')? LocalPart [NS 6] Prefix ::= NCName [NS 7] LocalPart ::= NCName
| name: | the full QName | 
| prefix: | a xmlChar ** | 
| Returns: | NULL if the name doesn't have a prefix. Otherwise, returns the local part, and prefix is updated to get the Prefix. Both the return value and the prefix must be freed by the caller. | 
const xmlChar * xmlSplitQName3 (const xmlChar * name,
int * len)
parse an XML qualified name string,i
| name: | the full QName | 
| len: | an int * | 
| Returns: | NULL if it is not a Qualified Name, otherwise, update len with the length in byte of the prefix and return a pointer to the start of the name without the prefix | 
xmlNodePtr xmlStringGetNodeList (const xmlDoc * doc,
const xmlChar * value)
Parse the value string and build the node list associated. Should produce a flat tree with only TEXTs and ENTITY_REFs.
| doc: | the document | 
| value: | the value of the attribute | 
| Returns: | a pointer to the first child | 
xmlNodePtr xmlStringLenGetNodeList (const xmlDoc * doc,
const xmlChar * value,
int len)
Parse the value string and build the node list associated. Should produce a flat tree with only TEXTs and ENTITY_REFs.
| doc: | the document | 
| value: | the value of the text | 
| len: | the length of the string value | 
| Returns: | a pointer to the first child | 
int xmlTextConcat (xmlNodePtr node,
const xmlChar * content,
int len)
Concat the given string at the end of the existing node content
| node: | the node | 
| content: | the content | 
| len: | @content length | 
| Returns: | -1 in case of error, 0 otherwise | 
xmlNodePtr xmlTextMerge (xmlNodePtr first,
xmlNodePtr second)
Merge two text nodes into one
| first: | the first text node | 
| second: | the second text node being merged | 
| Returns: | the first text node augmented | 
void xmlUnlinkNode (xmlNodePtr cur)
Unlink a node from it's current context, the node is not freed If one need to free the node, use xmlFreeNode() routine after the unlink to discard it. Note that namespace nodes can't be unlinked as they do not have pointer to their parent.
| cur: | the node | 
int xmlUnsetNsProp (xmlNodePtr node,
xmlNsPtr ns,
const xmlChar * name)
Remove an attribute carried by a node.
| node: | the node | 
| ns: | the namespace definition | 
| name: | the attribute name | 
| Returns: | 0 if successful, -1 if not found | 
int xmlUnsetProp (xmlNodePtr node,
const xmlChar * name)
Remove an attribute carried by a node. This handles only attributes in no namespace.
| node: | the node | 
| name: | the attribute name | 
| Returns: | 0 if successful, -1 if not found | 
int xmlValidateNCName (const xmlChar * value,
int space)
Check that a value conforms to the lexical space of NCName
| value: | the value to check | 
| space: | allow spaces in front and end of the string |
