[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #58004] [octave forge] (io) xmlread.m makes Octave crash

[Dennis]

Follow-up Comment #14, bug #58004 (project octave):

Perhaps the concept of relying on a java library isn't such a good idea after
all. 

I am going to check if I can find a more future proof way around my problem by
obtaining the data in JSON format. There is an excellent package to parse
json, called jsonlab
(http://iso2mesh.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi?jsonlab). This is written
as a matlab/octave native code (as far as I can tell), so no problems with
java.

Perhaps someone is interested in translating jsonlab into an XML version. This
seems to be quite a major task and personally I do not have time for this. As
xmlread is more or less the only way to parse xml in octave, I'd say a more
future proof solution is very much welcome.
