NAME¶
XML::NamespaceFactory - Simple factory objects for SAX namespaced names.
VERSION¶
version 1.02
SYNOPSIS¶
use XML::NamespaceFactory;
my $FOO = XML::NamespaceFactory->new('http://foo.org/ns/');
print $FOO->title; # {http://foo.org/ns/}title
print $FOO->{'bar.baz-toto'}; # {http://foo.org/ns/}bar.baz-toto
DESCRIPTION¶
Simply create a new XML::NamespaceFactory object with the namespace you wish to
use as its single parameter. If you wish to use the empty namespace, simply
pass in an empty string (but undef will not do).
Then, when you want to get a JClark name, call a method on that object the name
of which is the local name you wish to have. It'll return the JClark notation
for that local name in your namespace.
Unfortunately, some local names legal in XML are not legal in Perl. To
circumvent this, you can use the hash notation in which you access a key on
the object the name of which is the local name you wish to have. This will
work just as the method call name but will accept more characters. Note that
it does not check that the name you ask for is a valid XML name. This form is
more general but slower.
If this is not clear, hopefully the SYNOPSIS should help :)
ABSTRACT¶
A number of accessors for namespaces in SAX use the JClark notation,
{namespace}local-name. Those are a bit painful to type repeatedly, and
somewhat error-prone as hash keys. This module makes life easier.
