EPTS - the Event Processing Technical Society - is going to be officially launched in late May or early June (exact date - TBD). EPTS has existed as an informal society for the last two years, holding three Event Processing Symposiums to date; for details see: 1st Workshop on Event Processing - Presentations 2nd Workshop on [...]

XML::Catalog - Resolve public identifiers and remap system identifiers
SYNOPSIS
use XML::Catalog;
my $catalog=XML::Catalog->new('/xml/catalog.cat');
$catalog->add('http://www.w3.org/xcatalog/mastercat.xml');
my $sysid=$catalog->resolve_public('-//John Cowan//LOC Diacritics');
my $newsysid=$catalog->remap_system('http://www.w3.org');
$parser->setHandlers(ExternEnt=>$catalog->get_handler($parser));
Oasis Example
$ perl -e 'use XML::Catalog;
$pubid = q|-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN|;
my $catalog=XML::Catalog->new("/etc/xml/catalog");
print $catalog->resolve_public($pubid), "
";'

DESCRIPTION
This module implements draft 0.4 of John Cowan's XML Catalog (formerly known as XCatalog) proposal
(<http://www.ccil.org/~cowan/XML/XCatalog.html>). Catalogs may be written in either SOCAT or XML syntax (see the proposal for syntax
details); XML::Catalog will assume SOCAT syntax if the catalog is not in well-formed XML syntax.
This module, as of 1.0.0, also supports Oasis XML catalogs.
CONSTRUCTOR
new(URL [,URL]*)
Read the catalog identified by URL and return a catalog object implementing it. If more than one URL is given, chain the additional
catalogs as extensions to the catalog (they will be searched before catalogs specified by EXTEND entries).
All URLs must be absolute. A URL with no protocol is treated as a filename.
METHODS
add(URL [,URL]*)
Chain the catalogs identified by the URL(s) to the current catalog.
resolve_public(PUBID)
Translate the public identifier PUBID to a system identifier. Returns undef if the identifier could not be translated.
remap_system(SYSID)
Remap the system identifier SYSID as specified by the catalog. Returns SYSID unchanged if no remapping was found.
get_handler(PARSER)
Returns a coderef to a resolver suitable for use as the ExternEnt handler for an XML::Parser object. The resolver will first attempt
to resolve a public identifier if supplied, and then attempt to remap the resulting system identifier (or the original system
identifier if no public identifier was supplied). It will then call the original ExternEnt handler associated with the parser object.
PARSER is the parser object; it is needed as an argument in order to obtain the original handler.

BUGS / TODO
Searching of chained catalogs is not purely depth-first (EXTEND items in a chained catalog will be searched before EXTEND items in the
original catalog.
Error checking leaves much to be desired.
