XmlStatistic by Martin Szugat

Description

This is a simple Visual Basic.NET program to calculate some statistics for one or more XML documents, e.g. the number of elements or attributes. It is also useful to estimate the ratio of metadata to real data, of (insignificant) whitespace to real data and of metadata plus (insignificant) whitespace to real data.

Usage

XmlStatistic.exe Document1.xml Document2.xml ...

The output is written to STDOUT in a very simple XML format.
