XML::Grove::AsCanonXML - output XML objects in canonical XML
use XML::Grove::AsCanonXML;
# Using as_canon_xml method on XML::Grove objects:
$string = $xml_object->as_canon_xml( OPTIONS );
# Using an XML::Grove::AsCanonXML instance:
$writer = XML::Grove::AsCanonXML->new( OPTIONS );
$string = $writer->as_canon_xml($xml_object);
$writer->as_canon_xml($xml_object, $file_handle);
XML::Grove::AsCanonXML will return a string or write a stream of
canonical XML for an XML object and it's content (if any).
XML::Grove::AsCanonXML objects hold the options used for writing
the XML objects. Options can be supplied when the the object is
created,
$writer = XML::Grove::AsCanonXML->new( Comments => 1 );
or modified at any time before writing an XML object by setting the
option directly in the `$writer' hash.
- Comments
-
By default comments are not written to the output. Setting comment to
TRUE will include comments in the output.
