What Is XML to C?
C has no native XML support. Libraries like libxml2 or tinyxml2 parse XML. This tool generates C structs from your XML. The W3C XML spec defines the format; conversion runs in your browser. Nothing is sent to a server.
How to Use This Tool
Paste or Upload XML
Paste XML or upload a file. Set struct name and package in the config.
Review C Output
The right panel shows generated structs. Use libxml2 or tinyxml2 to parse and populate. You must manage memory.
Copy or Download
Use Copy or Download. For JSON to C, use JSON to C. For XML formatting, use XML Formatter.
When XML to C Helps
When building embedded systems or C apps that consume XML config or SOAP, generate structs here. Use libxml2 or tinyxml2 to parse and populate. The W3C XML spec defines the format.
