XML::LibXML::Dtd(3)                  User Contributed Perl Documentation                 XML::LibXML::Dtd(3)



NAME
       XML::LibXML::Dtd - XML::LibXML DTD Handling

SYNOPSIS
         $dtd = XML::LibXML::Dtd->new($public_id, $system_id);
         $dtd = XML::LibXML::Dtd->parse_string($dtd_str);
         $publicId = $dtd->getName();
         $publicId = $dtd->publicId();
         $systemId = $dtd->systemId();

DESCRIPTION
       This class holds a DTD. You may parse a DTD from either a string, or from an external SYSTEM
       identifier.

       No support is available as yet for parsing from a filehandle.

       XML::LibXML::Dtd is a sub-class of Node, so all the methods available to nodes (particularly
       toString()) are available to Dtd objects.

       new
             $dtd = XML::LibXML::Dtd->new($public_id, $system_id);

           Parse a DTD from the system identifier, and return a DTD object that you can pass to
           $doc->is_valid() or $doc->validate().

              my $dtd = XML::LibXML::Dtd->new(
                                   "SOME // Public / ID / 1.0",
                                   "test.dtd"
                                             );
              my $doc = XML::LibXML->new->parse_file("test.xml");
              $doc->validate($dtd);

       parse_string
             $dtd = XML::LibXML::Dtd->parse_string($dtd_str);

           The same as new() above, except you can parse a DTD from a string. Note that parsing from string
           may fail if the DTD contains external parametric-entity references with relative URLs.

       getName
             $publicId = $dtd->getName();

           Returns the name of DTD; i.e., the name immediately following the DOCTYPE keyword.

       publicId
             $publicId = $dtd->publicId();

           Returns the public identifier of the external subset.

       systemId
             $systemId = $dtd->systemId();

           Returns the system identifier of the external subset.
