Library of elements

[P-McG]

Looking at the matml31.cxx and matml31.hxx files looks like only MatML_Doc is the only element with serialization. The others do have operator << functions.

Response from codesynthesis

I'm looking to save sequences without requiring having to save the whole
tree. The rationale behind this is to create a library of elements that can
be then cloned into a tree.

Each XML Schema type is mapped to a C++ class that comes with a
parsing constructor (from DOMElement) and a serialization operator<<
(to DOMElement). So with some effort (i.e., create suitable DOMElement,
etc) you should be able to serialize a sequence of instances of such
classes.

The closest example to what you are trying to achieve is probably
cxx/tree/messaging/ (it also comes with DOM parsing/serialization
helpers which you will most likely find useful). There is also
cxx/tree/streaming/ that you may find relevant.
