XML::Xerces is the Perl API to the Apache project's Xerces XML parser. It
|
|
is implemented using the Xerces C++ API, and it provides access to *most*
|
|
of the C++ API from Perl.
|
|
|
|
Because it is based on Xerces-C, XML::Xerces provides a validating XML
|
|
parser that makes it easy to give your application the ability to read and
|
|
write XML data. Classes are provided for parsing, generating, manipulating,
|
|
and validating XML documents. XML::Xerces is faithful to the XML 1.0
|
|
recommendation and associated standards (DOM levels 1,2, and 3, SAX 1 and
|
|
2, Namespaces, and W3C XML Schema). The parser provides high performance,
|
|
modularity, and scalability, and provides full support for Unicode.
|
|
|
|
XML::Xerces implements the vast majority of the Xerces-C API (if you notice
|
|
any discrepancies please mail the list <URL:
|
|
mailto:xerces-p-dev@xml.apache.org> ). The exception is some functions in
|
|
the C++ API which either have better Perl counterparts (such as file I/O)
|
|
or which manipulate internal C++ information that has no role in the Perl
|
|
module.
