Methods: Persistence

noSaveKeys

 @keys = $class_or_obj->noSaveKeys();

Override: returns list of keys not to be saved. Here, qw(xdoc xprs).

Methods: Input

close

 $fmt = $fmt->close();

Override: close current input source.

fromFile

 $fmt = $fmt->fromFile($filename_or_handle);

Override: select input from file.

fromFh

 $fmt = $fmt->fromFh($fh);

Override: select input from filehandle $fh.

fromString

 $fmt = $fmt->fromString($string);

Override: select input from string $string.

Methods: Output

flush

 $fmt = $fmt->flush();

Override: flush accumulated output.

toString

 $str = $fmt->toString();
 $str = $fmt->toString($formatLevel);

Override: flush buffered output to byte-string. $formatLevel is passed to XML::LibXML::Document::toString(), and defaults to $fmt->{level}.

toFh

 $fmt_or_undef = $fmt->toFh($fh,$formatLevel);

Override: flush buffered output document to filehandle $fh.

xmlDocument

 $xmldoc = $fmt->xmlDocument();

Returns output buffer $fmt->{xdoc}, creating it if not yet defined.

xmlRootNode

 $rootnode = $fmt->xmlRootNode();
 $rootnode = $fmt->xmlRootNode($nodname);

Returns output buffer root node, creating one if not yet defined.

$nodname is the name of the root node to create (if required); default='doc'.

putToken

Not implemented here.

putSentence

Not implemented here.

putDocument

Not implemented here.

defaultXmlNode

 $nod = $fmt->defaultXmlNode($value,\%opts);

Default XML node generator, which creates very perl-ish XML.

%opts is unused.
