XML::LibXML::NamespaceUser)Contributed Perl DocumenXML::LibXML::Namespace(3pm)NAMEXML::LibXML::Namespace - XML::LibXML Namespace Implementation
SYNOPSIS
use XML::LibXML;
# Only methods specific to Namespace nodes are listed here,
# see the XML::LibXML::Node manpage for other methods
my $ns = XML::LibXML::Namespace->new($nsURI);
print $ns->nodeName();
print $ns->name();
$localname = $ns->getLocalName();
print $ns->getData();
print $ns->getValue();
print $ns->value();
$known_uri = $ns->getNamespaceURI();
$known_prefix = $ns->getPrefix();
$key = $ns->unique_key();
DESCRIPTION
Namespace nodes are returned by both
$element->findnodes('namespace::foo') or by $node->getNamespaces().
The namespace node API is not part of any current DOM API, and so it is
quite minimal. It should be noted that namespace nodes are not a sub
class of XML::LibXML::Node, however Namespace nodes act a lot like
attribute nodes, and similarly named methods will return what you would
expect if you treated the namespace node as an attribute. Note that in
order to fix several inconsistencies between the API and the
documentation, the behavior of some functions have been changed in
1.64.
METHODS
new
my $ns = XML::LibXML::Namespace->new($nsURI);
Creates a new Namespace node. Note that this is not a 'node' as an
attribute or an element node. Therefore you can't do call all
XML::LibXML::Node Functions. All functions available for this node
are listed below.
Optionally you can pass the prefix to the namespace constructor. If
this second parameter is omitted you will create a so called
default namespace. Note, the newly created namespace is not bound
to any document or node, therefore you should not expect it to be
available in an existing document.
declaredURI
Returns the URI for this namespace.
declaredPrefix
Returns the prefix for this namespace.
nodeName
print $ns->nodeName();
Returns "xmlns:prefix", where prefix is the prefix for this
namespace.
name
print $ns->name();
Alias for nodeName()
getLocalName
$localname = $ns->getLocalName();
Returns the local name of this node as if it were an attribute,
that is, the prefix associated with the namespace.
getData
print $ns->getData();
Returns the URI of the namespace, i.e. the value of this node as if
it were an attribute.
getValue
print $ns->getValue();
Alias for getData()
value
print $ns->value();
Alias for getData()
getNamespaceURI
$known_uri = $ns->getNamespaceURI();
Returns the string "http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/"
getPrefix
$known_prefix = $ns->getPrefix();
Returns the string "xmlns"
unique_key
$key = $ns->unique_key();
This method returns a key guaranteed to be unique for this
namespace, and to always be the same value for this namespace. Two
namespace objects return the same key if and only if they have the
same prefix and the same URI. The returned key value is useful as a
key in hashes.
