Línea de trabajo

Start with the deserialization documentation at https://docs.rs/quick-xml/latest/quick_xml/de/ and trace how deserialized values are produced to determine where input offsets could be exposed. The issue gives no file or test entry point, so first locate the deserialization implementation and its tests. Done means deserialization provides precise input locations for values through an accessible API; the issue does not specify the API shape.

Descripción

enhancement help wanted serde

In one of my projects I have to parse and strictly validate XML input coming from other programs and humans, and the latter (understandably) insist on getting decent error messages (e.g. "at 'position' attribute X references an object called 'Y' which is not defined anywhere", "unexpected child Z at 'position', allowed child items are A,B and C").

As of now I use roxmltree and codespan-reporting, but I'd love to switch to an xml library with derivation support - you can imagine a lot of code could be substituted with just using quick-xml.

To satisfy the "nice error messages" requirement I need the precise locations of everything, though. I have scrolled through the deserialization docs, but could not find any mention of access to positions when using deserialization. Did I miss anything or is this not possible right now? Could you expose the offset in the input through e.g. generated getters?
