/**
 * @file pcilib_xml.c
 * @version 1.0
 * 
 * @brief this file is the main source file for the implementation of dynamic registers using xml and several funtionalities for the "pci-tool" line command tool from XML files. the xml part has been implemented using libxml2
 * 
 * @details this code was meant to be evolutive as the XML files evolute. In this meaning, most of the xml parsing is realized with XPath expressions(when it was possible), so that changing the xml xould result mainly in changing the XPAth pathes present in the header file. In a case of a change in xml file, variables that need to be changed other than xpathes, will be indicated in the description of the function.
 
 Libxml2 considers blank spaces within the XML as node natively and this code as been produced considering blank spaces in the XML files. In case XML files would not contain blank spaces anymore, please change the code.

 In case the performance is not good enough, please consider the following : no more configuration file indicating where the files required are, hard code of formulas, and go to complete non evolutive code : get 1 access to xml file and context, and then make recursive descent to get all you need(investigation of libxml2 source code would be so needed to prove it's better to go recursive than just xpath).
