libxml-parser-perl - 2.44-4 main

The XML::Parser module provides ways to parse XML documents. It is built on
top of XML::Parser::Expat, which is a lower level interface to James Clark's
expat library. Each call to one of the parsing methods creates a new instance
of XML::Parser::Expat which is then used to parse the document. Expat options
may be provided when the XML::Parser object is created. These options are
then passed on to the Expat object on each parse call. They can also be given
as extra arguments to the parse methods, in which case they override options
given at XML::Parser creation time.
.
The behavior of the parser is controlled either by Style and/or Handlers
options, or by setHandlers method. These all provide mechanisms for
XML::Parser to set the handlers needed by XML::Parser::Expat. If neither
Style nor Handlers are specified, then parsing just checks the document for
being well-formed.
.
When underlying handlers get called, they receive as their first parameter
the Expat object, not the Parser object.
