Positions on the last element (tag or attribute) of the current tree level.
In most cases, XMLLast is used to position in the XML document in order to perform a read loop with XMLPrevious.
PHP The XML comments (enclosed in "<!-" and "-->" tags) are ignored.
AndroidAndroid Widget Java The browses are performed in alphabetical order of the attributes.
Example
// Positions on the last element
XMLLast("XMLDoc")
WHILE XMLOut("XMLDoc") = False
        // Process the data
        XMLPrevious("XMLDoc")
END
Syntax
<Result> = XMLLast(<XML document>)
<Result>: Boolean
  • True if an element was found,
  • False otherwise. If an error occurs:
    • the current position remains unchanged.
    • the ErrorOccurred variable is set to True. To get the details of the error, use ErrorInfo.
<XML document>: Character string
Name of XML document used. This document contains the XML code to study and it was created by XMLDocument.
Remarks

Handling elements in the XML code

After XMLLast, the current element can be handled by XMLElementName, XMLParentName, XMLElementType and XMLData.

Using XMLLast during a search

If a search is in progress (XMLFind), XMLLast cancels this search.

XML functions and threads

If your application uses threads, the XML document is shared between all these threads. For more details on threads, see Managing threads.
Modifying the current position of the XML document in one thread modifies the current position of the XML document in all the threads.
