46% The implementation of this XML parser is much inspired from a
47% Javascript parser that used to be available at <http://www.jeremie.com/>
48
49% A C-MEX file xml_findstr.c is also required, to encompass some
50% limitations of the built-in FINDSTR function.
51% Compile it on your architecture using 'mex -O xml_findstr.c' command
52% if the compiled version for your system is not provided.
53% If this function does not behave as expected, comment the line
54% '#define __HACK_MXCHAR__' in xml_findstr.c and compile it again.

57% Structure of the output tree:
58% There are 5 types of nodes in an XML file: element, chardata, cdata,
59% pi and comment.
60% Each of them contains an UID (Unique Identifier): an integer between
61% 1 and the number of nodes of the XML file.
62%
63%    element (a tag <name key="value"> [contents] </name>
64%       |_ type:       'element'
65%       |_ name:       string
66%       |_ attributes: cell array of struct 'key' and 'value' or []
67%       |_ contents:   double array of uid's or [] if empty
68%       |_ parent:     uid of the parent ([] if root)
69%       |_ uid:        double
70%
71%    chardata (a character array)
72%       |_ type:   'chardata'
73%       |_ value:  string
74%       |_ parent: uid of the parent
75%       |_ uid:    double
76%
77%    cdata (a litteral string <![CDATA[value]]>)
78%       |_ type:   'cdata'
79%       |_ value:  string
80%       |_ parent: uid of the parent
81%       |_ uid:    double
82%
83%      pi (a processing instruction <?target value ?>)
84%       |_ type:   'pi'
85%       |_ target: string (may be empty)
86%       |_ value:  string
87%       |_ parent: uid of the parent
88%       |_ uid:    double
89%
90%    comment (a comment <!-- value -->)
91%       |_ type:   'comment'
92%       |_ value:  string
93%       |_ parent: uid of the parent
94%       |_ uid:    double

96%--------------------------------------------------------------------------

98% TODO/BUG/FEATURES:
99%  - [compile] only a warning if TagStart is empty ?
100%  - [attribution] should look for " and ' rather than only "
101%  - [main] with normalize as a preprocessing, CDATA are modified
102%  - [prolog] look for a DOCTYPE in the whole string even if it occurs
103%    only in a far CDATA tag, bug even if the doctype is inside a comment
104%  - [tag_element] erode should replace normalize here
105%  - remove globals? uppercase globals  rather persistent (clear mfile)?
106%  - xml_findstr is indeed xml_strfind according to Mathworks vocabulary
107%  - problem with entities: do we need to convert them here? (&eacute;)
