C/C++ Parser/Tokenizer

I am looking for C or C++ code that I can incorporate in a program to
simply walk through an XML file, and give me the Tag name and its
associated value.

For example:

<person>
	<first>Frank</first>
</person>

etc..

I am looking for something that I can basically do

while ( !end_of_xml_file() )
{
	get_tag_and_value ( tagname, value );
}

Obviously, it wont be as simple as that, but I think you can grasp what
I am looking for.. We're going to be getting a XML file and simple need
to extract all the data, and map it to our own internal stuff..

So after I get the tag and value, I would do something like:

switch ( tagname )
{
	case 'first' :
		strcpy ( my_struct.first_name, value, length );
		break;
}

etc..

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I need it in C/C++ because it has
to be callable from a C program, and be able to be compiled on multiple
platforms..

Thanks,

Frank Rachel
