roxmltree VS rust

This is exactly what I needed when implementing xml-mut :D I have used roxmltree instead and manipulated text directly. will try to rewrite it using Xot.

In regards to the benchmarks, It makes sense to measure serializing/deserializing for parser crates. but since we are talking about dom implementations, metrics like traversal/iteration speed or insert/modification performance would be useful. a good example is roxmltree crate (readonly xml dom) which benches traversal/iteration performance and shows that by only focusing on readonly usecases, it gains substantial performance gains.

For xml parsing, I find https://github.com/RazrFalcon/roxmltree as a really good crate. It’s fast, light, and well documented/maintained. I have so much respect for the maintainer’s approach to merging PRs and the way they consider what’s important for the crate

I understand. But I've also wrote enough parsers and performance sensitive code in Rust (ttf-parser, tiny-skia, roxmltree). And in my experience, unsafe is not needed in 99% of the cases. Even something as performance sensitive as tiny-skia is unsafe-free (with some nuances).

Here's an example of someone citing a disagreement between CRT and shell32:

This in addition to the Rust CVE mentioned elsewhere in the thread which was rooted in this issue:

Here are some quick programs to test contrasting approaches. I don't have examples of inputs where they parse differently on hand right now, but I know they exist. This was also a problem that was frequently discussed internally when I worked at MSFT.

    #include 

> instead of choosing a certain numbered version of the random library (if I remember correctly) I let cargo download the latest version which had a completely different API.

Yeah, they didn't follow the instructions and got burned. I still think that multiple things went wrong simultaneously for that experience. I wonder if more prevalent uses of `#[doc(alias = "name")]` being leveraged by https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/120730 (which now that I check only accounts for methods and not functions, I should get on that!) so that when changing APIs around people at least get a slightly better experience.

Almost fixed the compiler: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/123325

Rust: A secure, efficient, and modern programming language (omitting ten thousand words). You can simply follow the installation instructions provided on the official website.

Recently did something similar in Rust but for generating SVGs. We've adopted it for snapshot testing of cargo and rustc's output. Don't have a good PR handy for showing Github's rendering of changes in the SVG (text, side-by-side, swiping) but https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/121877/files has newly added SVGs.

To see what is supported, see the screenshot in the docs: https://docs.rs/anstyle-svg/latest/anstyle_svg/

We strongly believe in Rust as a powerful language for building production-grade software, especially for systems like ours that run alongside Kubernetes.

The above Assert<{N % 2 == 1}> requires #![feature(generic_const_exprs)] and the nightly toolchain. See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/76560 for more info.
