How to generate a request Query string

[MattDawg]

I am new to XML and I am creating a webDav program which requires a query XML to search through the directory listings but I don't know how to build it. I found an example that looks like this

sQuery += "<?xml version='1.0'?><Dropfind xmlns='DAV:' ";

sQuery += "xmlns:h='

http://schemas.microsoft.com/hotmail/'

";

sQuery += "xmlns:hm='urn:schemas:httpmail:'><Drop><h:adbar/>";

sQuery += "<hm:contacts/><hm:inbox/><hmutbox/><hm:sendmsg/>";

sQuery += "<hm:sentitems/><hm:deleteditems/><hm:drafts/>";

sQuery += "<hm:msgfolderroot/><h:maxpoll/><h:sig/></Drop></Dropfind>";

This is to traverse a Exchange server WebDav folder but I just want to traverse a normal WebDav folder. I am writing the code in C++. I wrote a program to genereate what the XML file will look like and this is what I need

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
- <a:multistatus xmlns:b="urn:uuid:c2f41010-65b3-11d1-a29f-00aa00c14882/" xmlns:c="xml:" xmlns:a="DAV:">
- <a:response>
<a:href>
