=head1 NAME
RPC::XML::Parser::XMLParser - A container class for XML::Parser
=head1 SYNOPSIS
# This class should rarely (if ever) be used directly:
use RPC::XML::ParserFactory 'XML::Parser';
...
$P = RPC::XML::ParserFactory->new();
$P->parse($message);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This class implements the interface defined in the B<RPC::XML::Parser>
factory-class (see L<RPC::XML::Parser|RPC::XML::Parser>) using the
B<XML::Parser> module to handle the actual manipulation of XML.
=head1 SUBROUTINES/METHODS
This module implements the public-facing methods as described in
L<RPC::XML::Parser|RPC::XML::Parser>:
=over 4
=item new [ ARGS ]
The constructor only recognizes the two parameters specified in the base
class (for the B<RPC::XML::base64> file-spooling operations).
=item parse [ STRING | STREAM ]
The parse() method accepts either a string of XML, a filehandle of some sort,
or no argument at all. In the latter case, the return value is a parser
instance that acts as a push-parser (a non-blocking parser). For the first
two types of input, the return value is either a message object (one of
B<RPC::XML::request> or B<RPC::XML::response>) or an error.
=item parse_more STRING
(Only callable on a push-parser instance) Parses the chunk of XML, which does
not have to describe a complete document, and adds it to the current running
document. If this method is called on a parser instance that is not a
push-parser, an exception is thrown.
=item parse_done
(Only callable on a push-parser instance) Finishes the parsing process and
returns either a message object (one of B<RPC::XML::request> or
B<RPC::XML::response>) or an error (if the document was incomplete, not
well-formed, or not valid). If this method is called on a parser instance that
is not a push-parser, an exception is thrown.
=back
=head1 DIAGNOSTICS
All methods return some type of reference on success. The B<new> and B<parse>
methods return message strings on errors. The B<parse_more> and B<parse_done>
methods may throw exceptions on errors, if the error occurs at the
B<XML::Parser> level.
=head1 EXTERNAL ENTITIES
As of version 1.24 of this module (version 0.75 of the B<RPC::XML> suite),
external entities whose URI is a C<file:/> scheme (local file) are explicitly
ignored. This is for security purposes.
=head1 BUGS
Please report any bugs or feature requests to
C<bug-rpc-xml at rt.cpan.org>, or through the web interface at
L<http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/ReportBug.html?Queue=RPC-XML>. I will be
notified, and then you'll automatically be notified of progress on
your bug as I make changes.
