Hi,
I'm using XML::Simple to parse some xml data. I find it works inconsistently for some cases. I'm just trying to make it provide consistent style of output. But, I couldn't get it. Here is my sample program.
use strict;
use warnings;
use Data::Dumper;
use XML::Simple;
my $res = "<results>
<binding name=\'description\'>
<literal xml:lang=\'en\'>First article
+. </literal>
</binding>
</results>";
my $res2 = "<results>
<binding name=\'image_url\'>
<uri>Football.png</uri>
</binding>
<binding name=\'description\'>
<literal xml:lang=\'en\'>Second articl
+e.</literal>
</binding>
</results>";
my $result = XMLin($res);
my $result2 = XMLin($res2);
print Dumper $result;
print Dumper $result2;
Output it produces is,
$VAR1 = {
'binding' => {
'literal' => {
'content' => 'First article. ',
'xml:lang' => 'en'
},
'name' => 'description'
}
};
$VAR1 = {
'binding' => {
'image_url' => {
'uri' => 'Football.png'
},
'description' => {
'literal' => {
'content' => 'Sec
+ond article.',
'xml:lang' => 'en
+'
}
}
}
};
If you look at description tag. You could find the difference in the output it produced. I find, it works fine for 'Second article.' in the example. Is there any way to make it give the similar structure?
Thanks.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
