TODO for the libxml2 Python wrappers

         $Id$

Things to do:

-------------

- SAX interfaces

  - push is done but no generic interface

  - elementDecl need some work

  - need more testing and check full callbacks for xmllib/sgmlop replacement

- enums -> libxml.py

- access to XPath variables

- xmlBuffer exposure

- xpathContext, being able to set/get info and clean it up

- more work needed on context handling for function lookup

  and use of an hash table.

- add regression tests

   - SAX flow

- DTD element and attributes content accesses

   - attribute handled in SAX

   - element needed in both

Done:

-----

- class hierarchy:

  + make specific node type inherit from xmlNode

    done, had to sort the classes in the output

  + get the generator to output a classes.txt description

    done libxml2class.txt

- add regression tests

   - tests/Makefile.am: export the Python class path

   - xpath queries

   - xpath extension

   - check memory

   - build tree

   - saving

- extensions based on a python.xml description of the new specific

  interfaces

   file libxml2-python-api.xml , first entry is xmlRegisterXPathFunction

- spec file: automatically generate for pythonX.Y if found

  Done, a bit ugly by running new makes in %install for each level

  found.

- error redirections and preformat

- handling of node.content

- access to xmlParserCtxt and push mode

   - needed for SAX too

   - entry points

   - wrappers

   - decent interface for setting/getting behaviour

- memory debug interfaces

- SAX interfaces

   - basic stuff with push is available

   - basic xmllib replacement
