Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers Parsing XML dynamic data via awk? Post 9717 by corwin43 on Thursday 1st of November 2001 03:22:19 PM

Smilie Actually a colleague here is trying to push these scripts over to Perl (mainly because he more comfortable with Perl than shell scripting). To be bluntly honest, I'm a Windows guy (ducks....) and my new job responsibilites are forcing me to pick this up on the fly. From the little exposure I've had to Perl, it probably would work more elegantly, but these testing scripts are all compelte except the one I'm having a problem on, and the ole 'time constraints' make it problematic to rewrite everything in Perl right now. I do plan on doing that eventually, but for now I need this up and running in the shell environment.

XML::Handler::CanonXMLWriter(3) 			User Contributed Perl Documentation			   XML::Handler::CanonXMLWriter(3)

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. AUTHOR
