Very useful for tracking the DOM back in to the source file.<p> 431The tab size is required for calculating the location of nodes. If not set, the default of 4 is used. The tabsize is set per document. Setting the tabsize to 0 disables row/column tracking.<p> 432Note that row and column tracking is not supported when using operator>>.<p> 433The tab size needs to be enabled before the parse or load. Correct usage: <div class="fragment"><pre class="fragment"> TiXmlDocument doc; 434 doc.SetTabSize( 8 ); 435 doc.Load( "myfile.xml" ); 436 </pre></div><p> 437<dl compact><dt><b>See also:</b></dt><dd><a class="el" href="classTiXmlBase.html#a3">Row</a>, <a class="el" href="classTiXmlBase.html#a4">Column</a></dd></dl> 438 </td> 439 </tr> 440</table> 441<hr>The documentation for this class was generated from the following file:<ul> 442<li><a class="el" href="tinyxml_8h-source.html">tinyxml.h</a></ul> 443<hr size="1"><address style="align: right;"><small>Generated on Sat Oct 8 14:15:30 2005 for TinyXml by 444<a href="http://www.doxygen.org/index.html"> 445<img src="doxygen.png" alt="doxygen" align="middle" border="0"></a> 1.4.4 </small></address> 446</body> 447</html> 448
