Notes:
An CFXMLNode describes an individual XML construct - like a tag, or a comment, or a string of character data. Each CFXMLNode contains 3 main pieces of information - the node's type, the data string, and a pointer to an additional data structure. The node's type ID is an enum value of type CFXMLNodeTypeCode. The data string is always a CFStringRef; the meaning of the string is dependent on the node's type ID. The format of the additional data is also dependent on the node's type; in general, there is a custom structure for each type that requires additional data. See below for the mapping from type ID to meaning of the data string and structure of the additional data.

Type codes for the different possible XML nodes; this list may grow:
