[DejaGnu] xml parser for dejagnu.

[George France]

Hello Rob and Matt,

IMHO, it would be far more useful to patch Dejagnu to output XML based on the 
value of an environment variable.  Thus I could set the value before running 
'make check' and get logs in XML format. 

Is there any objections before I create such a patch to Dejagnu???

Best Regards,


--George

  Both. :-) I'd guess with no command line options, you'd want to parse all
the .log files, assuming there is more than one. If there is a file name
specified on the command line, then it should be the only file to get parsed.

  dejagnu/contrib is for utilities and other stuff.
