The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: XML::Maker
DSLIP: bdpOg
description: Module for generating XML
userid: VADIMT (Vadim Trochinsky)
chapterid: 11 (String_Lang_Text_Proc)
communities:
http://perlmonks.org/index.pl?node_id=296796
similar:
XML::Writer
rationale:
XML::Maker has been choosen as a short and simple name for a module
that produces XML. The module has also a make() function.
This module was made because I didn't like a few characteristics of
XML::Writer, for example, XML::Writer produces output as soon as it
can. It also requires error-prone steps like closing tags and making
sure there's just one root element, which I thought weren't
necessary.
The main advantage of the module is that it doesn't produce output
until told to do so. This makes it possible for example to generate
XML, then remove part of it, and replace it with an error message.
This should make XML::Maker much more optimal than XML::Writer for
writing servers.
Another characteristic is that it's based on a tree of objects
(parent objects know about their children), which makes it possible
to pass a child to a function. The function will then have full
control over the child, but won't be able to change the parent,
which should add some security and make debugging somewhat easier.
