here’s some code from a plugin I’m developing.

for (int f = 0; f < mesh->numFaces; f++) 
{
pTVFace = mesh->tvFace[f];
Face  face = mesh->faces[f];
if (mesh->getNumTVerts() !=0)
	{
		TVFace tvFace = mesh->tvFace[f];
		fprintf(file,"<f a=\"%i\" b=\"%i\" c=\"%i\" uv_a=\"%i\" uv_b=\"%i\" uv_c=\"%i\"/>
",					
		face.v[0], face.v[1], face.v[2], 
		tvFace.t[0], tvFace.t[1], tvFace.t[2]);
	}
	else
	{
		fprintf(file,"<f a=\"%i\" b=\"%i\" c=\"%i\"/>
",face.v[0],face.v[1],face.v[2]);
	}
}

here is another sample, probably easier to understand:

	for(int f = 0; f < numFaces; ++f)
	{
		for(int v = 0; v < 3; ++v)
		{
				TVFace*      tvface = &mesh->tvFace[f];
				Point3 uv = mesh->getTVert(tvface->getTVert(v));
				fprintf(file, "<texCoord x=\"%f\" y=\"%f\" />
", uv.x, uv.y);
		}
	}

what you do is to loop through all texture vertices, or get the texture face and go through it’s vertices.
