AW: AW: [PEAR-DEV] #24865 [Asn]: [patch] let XML_RSS, XML_Parser accept string inputs

I've taken a look at your patch, but I didn't like it! If you hand over a resource to a large file (let's say 100 MB), the whole file is read to memory, which will PHP cause to die at most configurations (memory limit is 8MB). So even if it's theoretically backwards compatibel, it _will_ break applications that work with large files and rely on stream processing... BTW, using Stream_Var you can already use XML_Parser with a string... But as I wanted to do some improvements, I'll work on that subject, too.... Stephan
