XML::XPathEngine::LiteUser3Contributed Perl DocuXML::XPathEngine::Literal(3pm)

NAME
       XML::XPathEngine::Literal - Simple string values.

DESCRIPTION
       In XPath terms a Literal is what we know as a string.

API
   new($string)
       Create a new Literal object with the value in $string. Note that "
       and ' will be converted to " and ' respectively. That is not part
       of the XPath specification, but I consider it useful. Note though that
       you have to go to extraordinary lengths in an XML template file (be it
       XSLT or whatever) to make use of this:

               <xsl:value-of select="&quot;I'm feeling &amp;quot;sad&amp;quot;&quot;"/>

       Which produces a Literal of:

               I'm feeling "sad"

   value()
       Also overloaded as stringification, simply returns the literal string
       value.

   cmp($literal)
       Returns the equivalent of perl's cmp operator against the given
       $literal.
