Hi Maik,

Ok,

It depends on how you want to store such content. It may require from
you to do some marshalling/unmarshalling to properly store the content
and the size associated.

Maybe you can provide more details about the operation you have in mind
so I can be more specific.

Sure. CDATA support is provided using:

- axl_node_set_cdata_content

In fact CDATA support provided by axl can hold any binary data including
CDATA termination ]]> which is detected and properly escaped before
placing the content into the node.

In the other hand, axl properly unmarshalls CDATA content having in mind
this support when you call to axl_node_get_content.

Let me know if this solves your problem Maik. Cheers!
