NAME

       XML::Handler::CanonXMLWriter - output XML in canonical XML format

SYNOPSIS

	use XML::Handler::CanonXMLWriter;

	$writer = XML::Handler::CanonXMLWriter OPTIONS;
	$parser->parse(Handler => $writer);

DESCRIPTION

       "XML::Handler::CanonXMLWriter" is a PerlSAX handler that will return a string or write a stream of canonical XML for an XML instance and
       it's content.

       "XML::Handler::CanonXMLWriter" objects hold the options used for writing the XML objects.  Options can be supplied when the the object is
       created,

	   $writer = new XML::Handler::CanonXMLWriter PrintComments => 1;

       or modified at any time before calling the parser's `"parse()"' method:

	   $writer->{PrintComments} = 0;

OPTIONS

       IOHandle
	   IOHandle contains a handle for writing the canonical XML to.  If an IOHandle is not provided, the canonical XML string will be returned
	   from `"parse()"'.

       PrintComments
	   By default comments are not written to the output.  Setting comment to a true value will include comments in the output.
