[Rtk-users] Elekta XVI 5.0 XML reader

[Simon Rit]

Dear Yang,
This is great thanks! It's been pushed
<https://github.com/SimonRit/RTK/commit/2d0b4ec64dc04070ac323bc87b8729556f92d0e6>
with minor style fixes
<https://github.com/SimonRit/RTK/commit/5be3b1e6f40b08e4f01f6741c0084e8fcc23fa30>.
Next time, the best is to create a pull request on github, then I can
directly accept the request.
A regression test is missing yet. Could you share an example of such xml
file so that we create the regression test?
Thanks  again,
Simon
