|
|
|
|
|
or object as XML documents.

This class helps you generating any XML document you require without
|
|
|
|
|
the need for DOM.

Furthermore this package can be used as a replacement to serialize()
|
|
|
|
|
and unserialize() as it comes with a matching XML_Unserializer that
|
|
|
|
|
is able to create PHP data structures (like arrays and objects)
|
|
|
|
|
from XML documents, if type hints are available.

If you use the XML_Unserializer on standard XML files, it will try
|
|
|
|
|
to guess how it has to be unserialized. In most cases it does exactly
|
|
|
|
|
what you expect it to do.

Try reading a RSS file with XML_Unserializer and you have the whole
|
|
|
|
|
RSS file in a structured array or even a collection of objects,
|
|
|
|
|
similar to XML_RSS.

Since version 0.8.0 the package is able to treat XML documents
|
|
|
|
|
similar to the simplexml extension of PHP 5.
