That could indeed simplify the wrapping.  \r\n\r\nI will wait for the opinion you also requested, before going in this direction.\r\n\r\nMeanwhile I already modified my application to parse the srdf without the suggested parser, but integrating helper functions (which are then duplicate of what would be in a proper parser) to access the correct srdf elements I need.\r\n\r\n"}}
