NAME

       XML::Filter::BufferText - Filter to put all characters() in one event

SYNOPSIS

	 my $h = SomeHandler->new;
	 my $f = XML::Filter::BufferText->new( Handler => $h );
	 my $p = SomeParser->new( Handler => $f );
	 $p->parse;

DESCRIPTION

       This is a very simple filter. One common cause of grief (and programmer error) is that XML parsers aren't required to provide character
       events in one chunk. They can, but are not forced to, and most don't. This filter does the trivial but oft-repeated task of putting all
       characters into a single event.

       Note that this won't help you cases such as:

	 <foo> blah <!-- comment --> phubar </foo>

       In the above case, given the interleaving comment, there will be two "character()" events. This may be worked around in the future if there
       is demand for it.

       An interesting way to use this filter, instead of telling users to use it, is to return it from your handler's constructor, already
       configured and all.  That'll make the buffering totally transparent to them ("XML::SAX::Writer" does that).

NAME

       Test::XML::SAX - Test XML::SAX handlers

SYNOPSIS

	 use Test::XML::SAX tests => 1;
	 use My::XML::Filter;

	 my $handler = My::XML::Filter->new;
	 test_sax( $handler, '<foo />', '<bar/>', 'translates foo to bar' );

	 # ... In Another File ...

	 use Test::XML::SAX; use My::XML::Filter;

	 sub do_tests {
	     my $handler = My::XML::Filter->new;
	     test_sax( $handler, '<foo />', '<bar/>', 'translates foo to bar' );
	 }

	 test_all_sax_parsers( &do_tests, 1 );

DESCRIPTION

       This module is for testing XML::SAX handlers.

FUNCTIONS

       All functions are exported.

       test_sax ( HANDLER, INPUT, EXPECTED [, TESTNAME ] )
	   This function will process INPUT using HANDLER, and compare the result with EXPECTED.  TESTNAME can optionally be used to name the test
	   in the output (a good idea).

       test_all_sax_parsers ( SUB [, NUMTESTS ] )
	   This function will repeat a set of tests for all installed SAX parsers.  SUB must be a coderef to run a series of tests.  NUMTESTS is
	   the number of tests inside SUB.

	   NB: You must not issue a plan to Test::More if you call this function!  The plan will be set for you, according to the number of
	   parsers installed and NUMTESTS.  This also means that you must not have any tests outside of SUB or you will get an error.

	   When SUB is called, it will be passed two arguments.  The name of the parser being used and the number of tests.  It can use this
	   information to decide whether or not to skip this set of tests.
