The XML Toolbox converts MATLAB data structures of any level of nesting into an XML string. It also reads most types of XML strings/files and converts these into a Matlab structure.
Six simple functions are provided for this task:
xml_format()
xml_formatany()
xml_parse()
xml_parseany()
xml_load()
xml_save()
and help in xml_help.
This toolbox comes with an extensive pdf manual (35 pages).
Structures like this
>> project.name = 'MyProject';
>> project.id = 1234;
>> project.param.a = 3.1415;
>> project.param.b = 42;
can easily be converted with a command like str=xml_format(project,'off') to
result in:
<project>
..<name>MyProject</name>
..<id>1234</id>
..<param>
....<a>3.1415</a>
....<b>42</b>
..</param>
</project>
