Hi,
Can you recommend an XML parser which is faster than XML::Twig?
I need to use an XML parser that can parse the XML files chunk by chunk and
which works faster (much faster) than XML::Twig, because I tried using this
module but it is very slow.
I tried something like the code below, but I have also tried a version that
just opens the file and parses it using regular expressions, however the
unelegant regexp version is 25 times faster than the one which uses XML::Twig,
and it also uses less memory.
If you think there is a module for parsing XML which would work faster than
regular expressions, or if I can substantially improve the program which uses
XML::Twig then please tell me about it. If regexp will still be faster, I will
use regexp.
Thanks.
use XML::Twig;
my $xml = 'path/to/xml/file.xml';
my $t= XML::Twig->new( twig_handlers => {
Lexem => sub {
my( $t, $lexem )= @_;
my $id = $lexem->att( 'id' );
my $timestamp = $lexem->first_child( 'Timestamp')->text;
my $lexem_text = $lexem->first_child( 'Form' )->text;
my @inflected_form = $lexem->children( 'InflectedForm' );
for my $inflected_form ( @inflected_form ) {
my $inflection_id = $inflected_form->first_child( 'InflectionId'
)->text;
my $inflection_text = $inflected_form->first_child( 'Form' )->text;
}
$t->purge;
return 1;
},
} );
$t->safe_parsefile( $xml );
$t->purge;
