Create XML

[drichter]

Hi,

is there an easy way to create valid xml code? Or is the only way to work with string operations?

Thingworx uses the E4X to work with XML: Processing XML with E4X - Archive of obsolete content | MDN

So creating an near empty Object like in Chapter: Creating an XML object

var languages = new XML('<languages type="dynamic"><lang>JavaScript</lang><lang>Python</lang></languages>');

or

var languages = <languages type="dynamic">
   <lang>JavaScript</lang>
   <lang>Python</lang>
</languages>;

And then work with the xml object like you would parse it, but set values to the nodes and attributes
