row and column information

[rubenmoor]

This is a feature request.

If I'm not mistaken, xml-conduit does not keep track of row and column information (e.g. in the nodes). My use case would benefit from something like that, because potential errors in the xml document are fed back to the user.

Any thoughts on that?

This is provided in the streaming API, e.g. parseTextPos. If you have a proposal for how to add it to the nodes as well, let me know.

I note that all the combinators operate on Events rather than EventPos - is there a tidy way of using Event based parsing on EventPos sources?

What about html-conduit? Text.HTML.Dom.eventConduit gives Events and there is no equivalent that gives EventPoss

[snoyberg]

No, such a function doesn't exist, and we'd need the functionality added to tagstream-conduit first to make it happen.
