Problems with Symbols, Medium Severity (1)

	Change	Effect
1	Type of this global data has been changed from char const[17] (68 bytes) to char const[16] (64 bytes).	Applications will obtain a different value and execution may change.

Problems with Data Types, Low Severity (7)

	Change	Effect
1	Name of member with value 0 has been changed from DOCUMENT to TINYXML_DOCUMENT.	Applications may execute a wrong branch of code in the library and therefore change the behavior.
2	Name of member with value 1 has been changed from ELEMENT to TINYXML_ELEMENT.	Applications may execute a wrong branch of code in the library and therefore change the behavior.
3	Name of member with value 2 has been changed from COMMENT to TINYXML_COMMENT.	Applications may execute a wrong branch of code in the library and therefore change the behavior.
4	Name of member with value 3 has been changed from UNKNOWN to TINYXML_UNKNOWN.	Applications may execute a wrong branch of code in the library and therefore change the behavior.
5	Name of member with value 4 has been changed from TEXT to TINYXML_TEXT.	Applications may execute a wrong branch of code in the library and therefore change the behavior.
6	Name of member with value 5 has been changed from DECLARATION to TINYXML_DECLARATION.	Applications may execute a wrong branch of code in the library and therefore change the behavior.
7	Name of member with value 6 has been changed from TYPECOUNT to TINYXML_TYPECOUNT.	Applications may execute a wrong branch of code in the library and therefore change the behavior.

Problems with Symbols, Low Severity (1)

	Change	Effect
1	Type of return value has been changed from TiXmlAttribute const* to TiXmlAttribute*.	Replacement of return type may indicate a change in its semantic meaning.
