XML::LibXML::Literal(3User Contributed Perl DocumentatiXML::LibXML::Literal(3)

NAME
       XML::LibXML::Literal - Simple string values.

DESCRIPTION
       In XPath terms a Literal is what we know as a string.

API
       new($string)

       Create a new Literal object with the value in $string. Note that "
       and ' will be converted to " and ' respectively. That is not part
       of the XPath specification, but I consider it useful. Note though that
       you have to go to extraordinary lengths in an XML template file (be it
       XSLT or whatever) to make use of this:

	       <xsl:value-of select=""I'm feeling &quot;sad&quot;""/>

       Which produces a Literal of:

	       I'm feeling "sad"

       value()

       Also overloaded as stringification, simply returns the literal string
       value.

       cmp($literal)

       Returns the equivalent of perl's cmp operator against the given $lit-
       eral.
