wxWidgets and TinyXML

I'm having a bit of trouble saving formatted text from a wxRichTextBox control. I don't normally go to forums for help, but I'm depressed and cloudy-headed today and I feel like being called a faggot. Here's how I'm doing it now:


// Create the XML document and ready it to be appended.
   TiXmlDocument xmlDocument;
   TiXmlDeclaration* p_decDeclaration = new TiXmlDeclaration( "1.0", "", "" );
   xmlDocument.LinkEndChild( p_decDeclaration );

   // Create the story and body sections.
   TiXmlElement* p_xleStory = new TiXmlElement( "story" );
   xmlDocument.LinkEndChild( p_xleStory );
   TiXmlElement* p_xleStoryBody = new TiXmlElement( "body" );
   p_xleStory->LinkEndChild( p_xleStoryBody );

   // Parse the text box character by character, build strings of like-
   // formatted characters, and link them to the story's body text as
   // children nodes.
   //TiXmlText* p_xltBody = new TiXmlText( (char*)p_txtMain->GetValue().char_str() );
   //p_xleStoryBody->LinkEndChild( p_xltBodyLine );
   TiXmlText* p_xltBodyLine = NULL;
   wxString strChildBuffer;
   //TiXmlNode* p_xleBodyTextParentNew = NULL;
   TiXmlNode* p_xleBodyTextParent = p_xleStoryBody;
   for( unsigned long intCountPos = 1 ; intCountPos < p_txtMain->GetValue().Len() ; intCountPos++ ) {


      wxRichTextAttr atrCurrent;
      wxRichTextAttr atrPrevious;
      p_txtMain->GetStyle( intCountPos, atrCurrent );
      p_txtMain->GetStyle( intCountPos - 1, atrPrevious );

      // Using this arrangement, bold will always be "outermost".

      if( atrCurrent.HasFontWeight() == true && atrPrevious.HasFontWeight() == false ) {
         // Finish up the current child.
         p_xltBodyLine = new TiXmlText( (char*)strChildBuffer.char_str() );
         p_xleBodyTextParent->LinkEndChild( p_xltBodyLine );

         // Bold has just been turned on.
         TiXmlElement* p_xleBodyTextParentNew = new TiXmlElement( "strong" );
         p_xleBodyTextParent->LinkEndChild( p_xleBodyTextParentNew );
         p_xleBodyTextParent = p_xleBodyTextParentNew;

         // Clean up.
         strChildBuffer = _( "" );
         p_xltBodyLine = NULL;
      }

      if( atrCurrent.HasFontItalic() == true && atrPrevious.HasFontItalic() == false ) {
         // Finish up the current child.
         p_xltBodyLine = new TiXmlText( (char*)strChildBuffer.char_str() );
         p_xleBodyTextParent->LinkEndChild( p_xltBodyLine );

         // Italic text has just been turned on.
         TiXmlElement* p_xleBodyTextParentNew = new TiXmlElement( "em" );
         p_xleBodyTextParent->LinkEndChild( p_xleBodyTextParentNew );
         p_xleBodyTextParent = p_xleBodyTextParentNew;

         // Clean up.
         strChildBuffer = _( "" );
         p_xltBodyLine = NULL;
      }

      if( atrCurrent.HasFontItalic() == false && atrPrevious.HasFontItalic() == true ) {
         // Finish up the current child.
         p_xltBodyLine = new TiXmlText( (char*)strChildBuffer.char_str() );
         p_xleBodyTextParent->LinkEndChild( p_xltBodyLine );

         // Italic text has just been turned off.
         p_xleBodyTextParent = p_xleBodyTextParent->Parent();

         // Clean up.
         strChildBuffer = _( "" );
         p_xltBodyLine = NULL;
      }

      if( atrCurrent.HasFontWeight() == false && atrPrevious.HasFontWeight() == true ) {
         // Finish up the current child.
         p_xltBodyLine = new TiXmlText( (char*)strChildBuffer.char_str() );
         p_xleBodyTextParent->LinkEndChild( p_xltBodyLine );

         // Bold text has just been turned off.
         p_xleBodyTextParent = p_xleBodyTextParent->Parent();

         // Clean up.
         strChildBuffer = _( "" );
         p_xltBodyLine = NULL;
      }

      // Now that we've dealt with the last of that buffer, start building
      // anew.
      strChildBuffer.Append( p_txtMain->GetValue().Mid( intCountPos, intCountPos + 1 ) );
   }

   xmlDocument.SaveFile( (char*)strFilePathIn.char_str() );

Needless to say, it doesn't work. I don't think I understand the RichText control well enough, despite the documentation. Or my algorithm's just stupid. How would you do this, /prog/?

MY EYES

being called a faggot
The only cure for depression? I think so.

Break it up into functions, faggot. And never type "p_xl" again.

He didn't ask for VALID PERL CODE.

Hi. Have you noticed that you're just repeating the same crap over and over? Human beings suck at interpreting such things. Fix that and your problem will be solved almost automatically (probably even you will be able to do it).

I can interpret /prog/ very well, thank you.

The NUMBER CHOOSEN BY   THE COMPUTER IS   locked down is   nice if people   are putting this   script together Couple   that with some   stuff changed Most.
