SVG::Parser::Expat(3) User Contributed Perl DocumentationSVG::Parser::Expat(3)NAMESVG::Parser::Expat - XML Expat Parser for SVG documents
SYNOPSIS
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use SVG::Parser::Expat;
die "Usage: $0 <file>\n" unless @ARGV;
my $xml;
{
local $/=undef;
$xml=<>;
}
my $parser=new SVG::Parser::Expat;
my $svg=$parser->parse($xml);
print $svg->xmlify;
DESCRIPTIONSVG::Parser::Expat is the Expat-specific parser module used by
SVG::Parser when an underlying XML::Parser-based parser is selected. It
may also be used directly, as shown in the synopsis above.
Use SVG::Parser to retain maximum flexibility as to which underlying
parser is chosen. Use SVG::Parser::Expat to supply Expat-specific
parser options or where the presence of XML::Parser is known and/or
preferred.
EXPORTS
None. However, an alternative parent class (other than XML::Parser) can
be specified by passing the package name to SVG::Parser::Expat in the
import list. For example:
use SVG::Parser::Expat qw(My::XML::Parser::Subclass);
Where My::XML::Parser::Subclass is a subclass like:
package My::XML::Parser::Subclass;
use strict;
use vars qw(@ISA);
use XML::Parser;
@ISA=qw(XML::Parser);
...custom methods...
1;
When loaded via SVG::Parser, this parent class may be specified by
placing it after the '=' in a parser specification:
use SVG::Parser qw(Expat=My::XML::Parser::Subclass);
See SVG::Parser for more details.
EXAMPLES
See "svgexpatparse" in the examples directory of the distribution.
