SVG::Parser::Expat.3pm

NAME

SVG::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;
 
 

DESCRIPTION

SVG::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.
