This change implements the initial version of move construction and assignment support for documents. When moving a document to another document, we always make sure move target is in "clean" state (empty document), and proceed by relocating all structures in the most efficient way possible. Complications arise from the fact that the root (document) node is embedded into xml_document object, so all pointers to it have to change; this includes parent pointers of all first-level children as well as allocator pointers in all memory pages and previous pointer in the first on-heap memory page. Additionally, compact mode makes everything even more complicated because some of the pointers we need to update are stored in the hash table (in fact, document first_child pointer is very likely to be there; some parent pointers in first-level children will be using compact_shared_parent but some won't be) which requires allocating a new hash table which can fail. Some details of this process are not fully fleshed out, especially for compact mode; and this definitely requires many tests.
pugixml 
pugixml is a C++ XML processing library, which consists of a DOM-like interface with rich traversal/modification capabilities, an extremely fast XML parser which constructs the DOM tree from an XML file/buffer, and an XPath 1.0 implementation for complex data-driven tree queries. Full Unicode support is also available, with Unicode interface variants and conversions between different Unicode encodings (which happen automatically during parsing/saving).
pugixml is used by a lot of projects, both open-source and proprietary, for performance and easy-to-use interface.
Documentation
Documentation for the current release of pugixml is available on-line as two separate documents:
- Quick-start guide, that aims to provide enough information to start using the library;
- Complete reference manual, that describes all features of the library in detail.
You’re advised to start with the quick-start guide; however, many important library features are either not described in it at all or only mentioned briefly; if you require more information you should read the complete manual.
