XML::NamespaceSupport 1.09

XML::NamespaceSupport is Perl module a simple generic namespace support class. SYNOPSIS use XML::NamespaceSupport; my $nsup = XML::NamespaceSupport->new; # add a new empty context $nsup->push_context; # declare a few prefixes $nsup->declare_prefix($prefix1, $uri1); $nsup->declare_prefix($prefix2, $uri2); # the same shorter $nsup->declare_prefixes($prefix1 => $uri1, $prefix2 => $uri2); # get a single prefix for a URI (randomly) $prefix = $nsup->get_prefix($uri); # get all prefixes for a URI (probably better) @prefixes = $nsup->get_prefixes($uri); # get all prefixes in scope @prefixes = $nsup->get_prefixes(); # get all prefixes that were declared for the current scope @prefixes = $nsup->get_declared_prefixes; # get a URI for a given prefix $uri = $nsup->get_uri($prefix); # get info on a qname (java-ish way, its a bit weird) ($ns_uri, $local_name, $qname) = $nsup->process_name($qname, $is_attr); # the same, more perlish ($ns_uri, $prefix, $local_name) = $nsup->process_element_name($qname); ($ns_uri, $prefix, $local_name) = $nsup->process_attribute_name($qname); # remove the current context $nsup->pop_context; # reset the object for reuse in another document $nsup->reset; # a simple helper to process Clarkian Notation my ($ns, $lname) = $nsup->parse_jclark_notation({http://foo}bar); # or (given that it doesnt care about the object my ($ns, $lname) = XML::NamespaceSupport->parse_jclark_notation({http://foo}bar); This module offers a simple to process namespaced XML names (unames) from within any application that may need them. It also helps maintain a prefix to namespace URI map, and provides a number of basic checks. The model for this module is SAX2s NamespaceSupport class, readable at http://www.megginson.com/SAX/Java/javadoc/org/xml/sax/helpers/NamespaceSupport.html. It adds a few perlisations where we thought it appropriate..
