XML::Compile

This page is dedicated to Perl's XML::Compile distribution, and its friends.

XML::Compile translates XML data-structures into Perl's internal data-structures (usually nested hashes) and reverse, under control of a schema. The module does not teach you how to write schema's. Value validation is optional.

The companion modules implement SOAP interaction respectively a SOAP daemon. Only the latter may be platform dependent (limited to Unixes).

XML::Compile requires a recent version of XML::LibXML, which on its turn depends on a recent version of libxml2. Many Linux distribitions do not contain a sufficiently new release of that library and must therefore be upgraded.
