NAME¶
Pod::Simple::DumpAsXML -- turn Pod into XML
SYNOPSIS¶
perl -MPod::Simple::DumpAsXML -e \
"exit Pod::Simple::DumpAsXML->filter(shift)->any_errata_seen" \
thingy.pod
DESCRIPTION¶
Pod::Simple::DumpAsXML is a subclass of Pod::Simple that parses Pod and turns it
into indented and wrapped XML. This class is of interest to people writing Pod
formatters based on Pod::Simple.
Pod::Simple::DumpAsXML inherits methods from Pod::Simple.
SEE ALSO¶
Pod::Simple::XMLOutStream is rather like this class. Pod::Simple::XMLOutStream's
output is space-padded in a way that's better for sending to an XML processor
(that is, it has no ignorable whitespace). But Pod::Simple::DumpAsXML's output
is much more human-readable, being (more-or-less) one token per line, with
line-wrapping.
Pod::Simple::DumpAsText is rather like this class, except that it doesn't dump
with XML syntax. Try them and see which one you like best!
