xml class

[after-life]

Hi, I've stated on making a couple of classes for a game that me and some other guys are going to make.
I was doing an xml reader class and I know I'm doing something terribly wrong, here is my code:

Code: Select all

#include "XMLReader.h" 

IXMLReader* xml;

void createXMLReader(IrrlichtDevice* device, c8* filename)
{
    xml = device->getFileSystem()->createXMLReader(filename); 
}

stringw XMLReader::readXMLFile(stringw element, stringw attribute)
{
    while(xml && xml->read()) 
    { 
        switch(xml->getNodeType()) 
        { 
            case EXN_ELEMENT: 
            { 
                if(element == xml->getNodeName()) 
                { 
                    return xml->getAttributeValue(attribute);
                } 
            } 
        } 
        break; 
    } 
}

but it doesnt accept a stringw for attribute and if i return a stringw how can i convert it to something useful?

thx, after-life
