Loading Rust to XML Converter...

How to Convert Rust to XML - Step by Step Guide

Step 1

Input Your Rust Code

Start by adding your Rust struct definitions or data to the converter:

Paste directly: Copy your Rust struct code and paste it into the input editor
Upload a file: Click "Upload" to select a .rs file from your project
Try the sample: Click "Sample" to load example Rust code
Step 2

Automatic XML Generation

The converter automatically parses your Rust code and generates well-formed XML:

Parses structs: Extracts field names and values from Rust struct definitions
XML format: Generates proper XML syntax with elements and attributes
Preserves structure: Maintains nested objects as child elements
Step 3

Review Generated XML

Review the generated XML output with proper formatting:

Syntax highlighting: Review the generated XML with proper color coding
Valid XML: Output follows XML specification and is well-formed
Real-time conversion: See changes instantly as you modify the Rust code
Step 4

Export Your XML Data

Get your generated XML ready for use:

Copy to clipboard: One-click copying for quick use in your applications
Download as .xml file: Save as a file for data exchange or configuration
Ready to use: Perfect for APIs, data exchange, configuration files, and web services

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the Rust to XML converter work?

The converter parses Rust struct definitions and extracts field names, types, and values. It then generates properly formatted XML output following W3C standards with nested structs becoming child elements and arrays becoming repeated elements.

What Rust types are supported?

The tool supports common Rust types including String, integers (i32, i64), floats (f32, f64), bool, Option types, Vec (arrays), and nested structs. These are converted to their XML equivalents while maintaining the data structure.

Can I use the generated XML in my projects?

Yes! The generated XML is valid and ready to use in any application that reads XML data. It works with APIs, web services, configuration files, data exchange formats, and more.

How are nested structs handled in XML?

Nested Rust structs are converted to nested XML elements. The converter creates a hierarchical XML structure where child structs become child elements, maintaining the same parent-child relationships as in the Rust code.

Does this work with serde attributes?

The converter recognizes common serde attributes like #[serde(rename)] and uses the renamed field names as XML element names. This ensures consistency between your Rust serialization configuration and the generated XML.

Is the Rust to XML converter free?

Yes, completely free with no limitations on usage or file size. No registration required, and you can convert unlimited Rust code to XML format.
