Hi,
I am currently working with huge XML files that are a few hundred thousdand lines long.
When reading in the XML file I use textscan to split store the entire file as a cell array where each cell is a character array of one line from the document, so each index in the cell array corresponds to one line of text in the XML sheet.
This makes performing vectorized operations really easy and overall the manipulation of the files that I need to perform is executed very fast.
However, the one thing I'm not sure how to vectorize is the code that combinds all of the lines into one character array with line breaks inbetween each line. Since I need the output XML to be identical to the input other than the changes I make and I am currently using fprintf, concatenating the line breaks in manually is the only way I've found to make the output correctly formed so far.
It is probably simple, there may even be a specialized function for writing from a cell array like I need to that I am unaware of; though, for now this is how I am performing these last two steps:
% Reprint xml
xmlOutString = '';
for line = 1:length(xmlData)
xmlOutString = [xmlOutString xmlData{line} newline];
end
% Save ini
xmlFile = fopen(xmlPath,'wt');
fprintf(xmlFile,'%s',xmlOutString);
fclose(xmlFile);
which is painfully slow.
Does anyone know a better method?
Thanks for any suggestions.

By far the simplest and most efficient solution would be to add the newline to fprintf:
fprintf(xmlFile,'%s\n',...)
Is there a particular reason why that doesn't work?
