XML::EasySQL::XMLobj 1.2

XML::EasySQL::XMLobj is a Fork of Robert Hansons killer XML::EasyOBJ module, which offers Easy XML object navigation. SYNOPSIS XML::EasySQL::XMLobj is a fork of Robert Hansons XML::EasyOBJ module. The goal of the fork was to simplify inheritance issues. However, easy inheritance comes at a cost: class method names can no longer be dynamically renamed. If inheritance isnt needed and you desire the dynamic method renaming feature, I suggest you download Hansons original XML::EasyOBJ module from CPAN. NOTE: The rest of the documentation for this module was written by Robert Hanson -Curtis Lee Fulton # open exisiting file my $doc = new XML::EasySQL::XMLobj({type => file, param => my_xml_document.xml}); # create object from XML string my $doc = new XML::EasySQL::XMLobj({type => string, -param => $xml_source}); # create new file my $doc = new XML::EasySQL::XMLobj({type => new, param => root_tag}); # read from document my $text = $doc->root->some_element($index)->getString; my $attr = $doc->root->some_element($index)->getAttr(foo); my $element = $doc->root->some_element($index); my @elements = $doc->root->some_element; # first "some_element" element my $elements = $doc->root->some_element; # list of "some_element" elements my @elements = $doc->root->some_element; # write to document $doc->root->an_element->setString(some string) $doc->root->an_element->addString(some string) $doc->root->an_element->setAttr(attrname, val) $doc->root->an_element->setAttr(attr1 => val, attr2 => val2) # access elements with non-name chars and the underlying DOM my $element = $doc->root->getElement(foo-bar)->getElement(bar-none); my $dom = $doc->root->foobar->getDomObj; # get elements without specifying the element name my @elements = $doc->root->getElement(); my $sixth_element = $doc->root->getElement(, 5); # remove elements/attrs $doc->root->remElement(tagname, $index); $doc->root->tag_name->remAttr($attr); I wrote XML::EasyOBJ a couple of years ago because it seemed to me that the DOM wasnt very "perlish" and the DOM is difficult for us mere mortals that dont use it on a regular basis. As I only need to process XML on an occasionally I wanted an easy way to do what I needed to do without having to refer back to DOM documentation each time. A quick fact list about XML::EasySQL::XMLobj: * Runs on top of XML::DOM * Allows access to the DOM as needed * Simple routines to reading and writing elements/attributes.
