About:
XML::Parser is a Perl module interface to James Clark's expat XML parser library. It provides a robust, event-driven mechanism for parsing XML documents efficiently. This module is essential for developers needing to process or generate XML data within Perl applications.
Key Features:
  • Expat-based high-performance parsing
  • Event-driven API (SAX-style)
  • Support for XML namespaces
  • Handles malformed XML gracefully
Use Cases:
  • Processing XML configuration files
  • Parsing web service responses (SOAP/REST)
  • Data transformation and extraction tasks
Alternatives:
  • XML::LibXML – Uses libxml2; offers DOM and SAX, often faster and more feature-complete for complex XML.
