Problems with the GetAttributes command

[SteveyC]

Morning All.

I have loaded my XML doucment and am trying to extract one of the attributes from an XML tag. The XML Tag I am working with looks like:

<SDComponent Name=&quot;Average&quot; ComponentOid=&quot;_040g02g0g0001ko7047074srq0200&quot;>

I tried using the lines below to no avail. It just returns back nonsense.
CString componentDetails;
componentDetails = pComponentNode->Getattributes();

Ideally I want to be able to call a function, pass in the attribute name and get the value of that attribute back. Can anybody point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Hi.

Never mind, found a resident C++ guy (much to his dismay) and he has helped me work out a solution. For those that are interested.

CComponent:rocessComponent(IXMLDOMElementPtr pComponentNode)
{
IXMLDOMNodePtr myAttribute;
unsigned int numAttributes;

// Extract the attribute information for this component
numAttributes = pComponentNode->childNodes->length;
m_componentName = pComponentNode->getAttribute((LPCTSTR)xml_name_s).bstrVal;
m_componentID = pComponentNode->getAttribute((LPCTSTR)xml_component_id_s).bstrVal;

AfxMessageBox(pComponentNode->xml);
}
