Parse XML using libxml2
I am trying from almost a day to parse the below XML using libxml2 cpp library. I need to 2 things:
1) I need to get the list of all "Bucket" tag in a std::vector array.
2) Find if "NextMarker" tag is present or not.
Their are 2 possible XML that can be given as input.
XML 1

@HemantYadav You haven't asked a question or described a problem, you've only shared your goals. What output are you getting? What output are you expecting? How do they differ? Are you getting errors? If you do, what kind and what do they say? Take a moment to read How do I ask a good question?.

See the line number 8. I was expecting the lastChild->name to return name of tag, but it always returns "text" as output. So I am stuck at initial stage only.
