XML, the Perl Way


NAME

wtr2_smart


SYNOPSYS

  perl wtr2_smart


DESCRIPTION

I wrote this the XML::SMART manpage example after having written the the XML::Simple manpage one and I must say I was impressed by how compatible it was: it took me a good 10 minutes to modufy the wtr2_simple code to get this one: basically understanding that I needed to work with <$xml-{Finvoice} >> instead of directly the original $xml object, and removing all the extra ->{content} calls as XML::Smart lets me happily get the content of an element using $row->{DeliveredQuantity} and the value of an attribute with $row->{DeliveredQuantity}->{QuantityUnitCode}. Very neat.

In 10 more minutes I could add the errors, by just unshifting the newly created container in the document object.

One big annoyance with this module: I had to remove the -w switch as I kept getting warnings. This should be in the TODO list of the author (along with the unnecessary attacks against XML::Simple in the docs, the module can stand on its own and certainly does not need them).
