Question

I am a newbie in xcode development. I am trying to implement a web service call for fetching the values from a server and shows it on a table view.I got some sample code from net and some how i am able to make it work. but still i don’t know how the parser iterate through the xml nodes.
Can anybody help me to find out the working of xml parser in xcode and how it is going through all the nodes without a for loop?

Answer 1

Actually there are five delegate methods

1.didstartdocument

2.didstartelement

3.found characters

4.didendelement

5.didenddocument

In this first method is for starting of the document.
second method is for if any starting elements found then, If starting element is having data it goes to the found characters. After that goes to the didendelement.After that again it goes to didstartelement.it is going on repeatedly.if document ends then it goes to didenddocument.
