The problem here is that the driver is mixing direct libxml2 calls
with calls to the libxml2 wrapper of openwsman. The openwsman wrapper
type WsXmlNodeH is actually a xmlNodePtr, but that is hidden to the
compiler.
I checked if the openwsman libxml2 wrapper is complete enough to get
rid of this API mixing. I could replace all direct libxml2 calls with
openwsman wrapper call except xmlNewCDataBlock. A hack for this last
offender is to cast to a void pointer first, instead of a direct cast.
See attached patch for a quick fix, compile-tested only.
Another possibility is to do all the XML building using direct libxml2
calls, format the XML document and reparse it with the openwsman
wrapper. But I don't have time to work on that at the moment.
