NAME

       XML::LibXML::Number - Simple numeric values.

DESCRIPTION

       This class holds simple numeric values. It doesn't support -0, +/- Infinity, or NaN, as the XPath spec says it should, but I'm not hurting
       anyone I don't think.

API

   new($num)
       Creates a new XML::LibXML::Number object, with the value in $num. Does some rudimentary numeric checking on $num to ensure it actually is a
       number.

   value()
       Also as overloaded stringification. Returns the numeric value held.

NAME

       XML::LibXML::XPathExpression - XML::LibXML::XPathExpression - interface to libxml2 pre-compiled XPath expressions

SYNOPSIS

	 use XML::LibXML;
	 my $compiled_xpath = XML::LibXML::XPathExpression->new('//foo[@bar="baz"][position()<4]');

	 # interface from XML::LibXML::Node

	 my $result = $node->find($compiled_xpath);
	 my @nodes = $node->findnodes($compiled_xpath);
	 my $value = $node->findvalue($compiled_xpath);

	 # interface from XML::LibXML::XPathContext

	 my $result = $xpc->find($compiled_xpath,$node);
	 my @nodes = $xpc->findnodes($compiled_xpath,$node);
	 my $value = $xpc->findvalue($compiled_xpath,$node);

	 $compiled = XML::LibXML::XPathExpression->new( xpath_string );

DESCRIPTION

       This is a perl interface to libxml2's pre-compiled XPath expressions.  Pre-compiling an XPath expression can give in some performance
       benefit if the same XPath query is evaluated many times. "XML::LibXML::XPathExpression" objects can be passed to all "find..." functions
       "XML::LibXML" that expect an XPath expression.

       new()
	     $compiled = XML::LibXML::XPathExpression->new( xpath_string );

	   The constructor takes an XPath 1.0 expression as a string and returns an object representing the pre-compiled expressions (the actual
	   data structure is internal to libxml2).
