Here you see the XML generated by the sample class. As you can see the XML generated all the element text correctly. The real power of XMLWorks comes from the ability to use native Delphi (or C++) classes to work with XML. Instead of using INI files, or hard to read proprietary formats for storing settings you can now use XML files. Since XML files are hierarchical by nature they make excellent storage mediums for configuration settings.
