Note that <a class="el" href="classtinyxml2_1_1_x_m_l_handle.html">XMLHandle</a> is not part of the TinyXML-2 DOM structure. It is a separate utility class.</p>
<p>Take an example: </p><pre class="fragment"><Document>
<Element attributeA = "valueA">
<Child attributeB = "value1" />
<Child attributeB = "value2" />
</Element>
</Document>
</pre><p>Assuming you want the value of "attributeB" in the 2nd "Child" element, it's very easy to write a <em>lot</em> of code that looks like:</p>
<pre class="fragment">XMLElement* root = document.FirstChildElement( "Document" );
if ( root )
{
XMLElement* element = root->FirstChildElement( "Element" );
if ( element )
{
XMLElement* child = element->FirstChildElement( "Child" );
if ( child )
{
XMLElement* child2 = child->NextSiblingElement( "Child" );
if ( child2 )
{
// Finally do something useful.
</pre><p>And that doesn't even cover "else" cases. <a class="el" href="classtinyxml2_1_1_x_m_l_handle.html">XMLHandle</a> addresses the verbosity of such code. A <a class="el" href="classtinyxml2_1_1_x_m_l_handle.html">XMLHandle</a> checks for null pointers so it is perfectly safe and correct to use:</p>
<pre class="fragment">XMLHandle docHandle( &document );
XMLElement* child2 = docHandle.FirstChildElement( "Document" ).FirstChildElement( "Element" ).FirstChildElement().NextSiblingElement();
if ( child2 )
{
// do something useful
</pre><p>Which is MUCH more concise and useful.</p>
<p>It is also safe to copy handles - internally they are nothing more than node pointers. </p><pre class="fragment">XMLHandle handleCopy = handle;
</pre><p>See also <a class="el" href="classtinyxml2_1_1_x_m_l_const_handle.html">XMLConstHandle</a>, which is the same as <a class="el" href="classtinyxml2_1_1_x_m_l_handle.html">XMLHandle</a>, but operates on const objects. </p>
