NativeXML doesn’t claim to support Delphi 2009 just yet. [Edit: Apparently there is a 2009 beta available to paying customers.] The trial version does not, so it cannot work with Delphi 2009 until that version of Delphi is officially supported.
That said, using XML in Delphi for most purposes doesn’t require third-party components. You have several options, depending upon what you’re doing.
The most straightforward is to use TXMLDocument. This lets you open an XML file or stream, and access nodes using a DOM.
With the Enterprise version of Delphi, you get the XML data binding wizard. This generates strongly typed mapping classes for a certain XML schema. It’s very convenient when you know exactly what the structure of the XML document you’re parsing will be.
A third option is the XML mapper, which allows you to read XML data to and from a TClientDataset.
