Discussion

%XML_PARSER_PARSESTRING parses well-formed XML contained in an XML string and returns a new XML document instance. The created document can be processed using the %XML_DOC_xxx routines. The document can be deleted using %XML_DOC_DELETE.

If the XML data to be parsed is in a physical file instead of an XML string, call %XML_PARSER_PARSEFILE instead.

This function is defined as ^VAL.
