XML::Namespace 0.02

XML::Namespace is a Perl module with simple support for XML Namespaces.

SYNOPSIS

Example 1: using XML::Namespace objects

use XML::Namespace;

my $xsd = XML::Namespace->new(http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#);

# explicit access via the uri() method
print $xsd->uri(); # http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#
print $xsd->uri(integer); # http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#integer

# implicit access through AUTOLOAD method
print $xsd->integer; # http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#integer

Example 2: importing XML::Namespace objects

use XML::Namespace
xsd => http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#,
rdf => http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#;

# xsd and rdf are imported subroutines that return
# XML::Namespace objects which can be used as above

print xsd->uri(integer); # http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#integer
print xsd->integer; # http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#integer

This module implements a simple object for representing XML Namespaces in Perl. It provides little more than some syntactic sugar for your Perl programs, saving you the bother of typing lots of long-winded URIs. It was inspired by the Class::RDF::NS module distributed as part of Class::RDF.
