parser

Hi , I am currently in a task to generate an XML file for an srt text file containing timestamps and corresponding text. To generate an exe file which accepts file name input and outputs the relevant XML file to be used as part of an automated script.

Is it Advisable to use Tinyxml for this? Is this a very simple task that can be done with minimal programming? Is this one of those things which are very basic to c++ programmers?

reason i am asking this is I have recently made a shift into c++ programming after over 3 years of action script development.

Edit:

your comments regarding this are very much appreciated what's the easiest way to generate xml in c++?
