parameters: (content, encoding='utf-8', pretty=False)
return_statement: return ''.join(xml_parts)
docstring: Writes the XML content to disk, touching the file only if it has changed.
  
    Visual Studio files have a lot of pre-defined structures.  This function makes
    it easy to represent these structures as Python data structures, instead of
    having to create a lot of function calls.
  
    Each XML element of the content is represented as a list composed of:
    1. The name of the element, a string,
    2. The attributes of the element, a dictionary (optional), and
    3+. The content of the element, if any.  Strings are simple text nodes and
        lists are child elements.
  
    Example 1:
        <test/>
    becomes
        ['test']
  
    Example 2:
        <myelement a='value1' b='value2'>
           <childtype>This is</childtype>
           <childtype>it!</childtype>
        </myelement>
  
    becomes
        ['myelement', {'a':'value1', 'b':'value2'},
           ['childtype', 'This is'],

        ]
  
    Args:
      content:  The structured content to be converted.
      encoding: The encoding to report on the first XML line.
      pretty: True if we want pretty printing with indents and new lines.
  
    Returns:
      The XML content as a string.
docstring_summary: Writes the XML content to disk, touching the file only if it has changed.
docstring_tokens: Writes the XML content to disk touching the file only if it has changed .
