Interesting to know - when you say a pointer do you mean a pointer, say in the C programming language? Or just a pointer to the location.
In terms of for loop, I was wondering whether we could change the syntax to be more verbose like this:
Additionally I'm not sure what part of the awk statement tells the first column to increment by 10, i.e. from 0000 to 0010. That's why I put a counter+=10 above.

XML::LibXML::Devel(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation XML::LibXML::Devel(3)NAME
XML::LibXML::Devel - makes functions from LibXML.xs available
SYNOPSIS
/**********************************************

xmlNode *return_node();
void receive_node(xmlNode *);
###############################################
# XS Code

xs_receive_node
void *n
CODE:
receive_node(n);
###############################################
# Perl code
use XML::LibXML::Devel;
sub return_node
{
my $raw_node = xs_return_node();
my $node = XML::LibXML::Devel::node_to_perl($raw_node);

XML::LibXML::Devel::refcnt_inc($raw_node);
}
DESCRIPTION
"XML::LibXML::Devel" makes functions from LibXML.xs available that are needed to wrap libxml2 nodes in and out of XML::LibXML::Nodes. This
gives cleaner dependencies than using LibXML.so directly.
To XS a library that uses libxml2 nodes the first step is to do this so that xmlNodePtr is passed as void *. These raw nodes are then
turned into libxml nodes by using this "Devel" functions.
Be aware that this module is currently rather experimental. The function names may change if I XS more functions and introduce a reasonable
naming convention.
Be also aware that this module is a great tool to cause segfaults and introduce memory leaks. It does however provide a partial cure by
making "xmlMemUsed" available as "mem_used".
FUNCTIONS
NODE MANAGEMENT
node_to_perl
node_to_perl($raw_node);
Returns a LibXML::Node object. This has a proxy node with a reference counter and an owner attached. The raw node will be deleted as soon
as the reference counter reaches zero. If the C library is keeping a pointer to the raw node, you need to call refcnt_inc immediately.
You also need to replace xmlFreeNode by a call to refcnt_dec.
node_to_perl
node_from_perl($node);
Returns a raw node. This is a void * pointer and you can do nothing but passing it to functions that treat it as an xmlNodePtr. The raw
node will be freed as soon as its reference counter reaches zero. If the C library is keeping a pointer to the raw node, you need to call
refcnt_inc immediately. You also need to replace xmlFreeNode by a call to refcnt_dec.
refcnt_inc
refcnt_inc($raw_node);
Increments the raw nodes reference counter. The raw node must already be known to perl to have a reference counter.
refcnt_dec
refcnt_dec($raw_node);
Decrements the raw nodes reference counter and returns the value it had before. if the counter becomes zero or less, this method will free
the proxy node holding the reference counter. If the node is part of a subtree, refcnt_dec will fix the reference counts and delete the
subtree if it is not required any more.
refcnt
refcnt($raw_node);
Returns the value of the reference counter.
fix_owner
fix_owner($raw_node, $raw_parent);
This functions fixes the reference counts for an entire subtree. it is very important to fix an entire subtree after node operations
where the documents or the owner node may get changed. this method is aware about nodes that already belong to a certain owner node.
MEMORY DEBUGGING
$ENV{DEBUG_MEMORY}
BEGIN {$ENV{DEBUG_MEMORY} = 1;};
use XML::LibXML;
This turns on libxml2 memory debugging. It must be set before XML::LibXML is loaded.
mem_used
mem_used();
Returns the number of bytes currently allocated.
EXPORT
None by default.

This was created to support the needs of Apache2::ModXml2. So this can serve as an example.
