NAME
XML::Elemental - simplistic and perlish handling of XML data.
SYNOPSIS
use XML::Elemental;
my $p = XML::Elemental->parser;
my $xml = '<foo>There is a <helloworld/> in my soup.</foo>';
my $tree = $p->parse_string($xml);
DESCRIPTION
XML::Elemental is a SAX-based package for easily parsing XML documents into a more native
and mostly object-oriented perl form.
The development of this package grew out of the desire for something more object-oriented
then XML::Simple and was more simplistic and perlish then the various standard XML API
modules such as XML::DOM. Easier installation of modules was also a contributing factor.
Original this package began as a style plugin to XML::Parser. That proved to be too
limiting that it was expanded. With the release of version 2.0 the package was refactored
to take advantage of any parser supporting SAX that includes the pure perl option that
ships with XML::SAX.
METHODS
MT::Elemental->parser([\%options])
Instantiates and returns a SAX2 parser using XML::Elemental::SAXHandler as its handler
and thereby inherits all the methods found in XML::SAX::Base.
The parser method can optionally take a hash reference containing SAX options. The
hash reference can also include document, element and character class names to use
during processing. The following keys and their defaults are used:
KEY DEFAULT
Document XML::Elemental::Document
Element XML::Elemental::Element
Characters XML::Elemental::Characters
Any class that supports the same method signatures as the XML::Elemental default
classes can be used.
DEPENDENCIES
XML::SAX, Scalar::Util
SEE ALSO
XML::Simple, XML::DOM, XML::Handler::Trees
