Re^2: Choosing the best XML module for a toy system

[GrandFather]

XML::Simple generates more questions here than any other single module. It is simple if you are doing exactly what the defaults expect you to do, but no-one ever does and they all get into trouble as a result. Better to spend the time to learn how to use XML::Twig and use it for the simple stuff and later on for the complicated stuff.

Thank you for that information.

I only used it to convert some hashed data in pre-existing code into XML format and didn't go any further than that; otherwise I am sure I may have discovered its limitations
