NAME
XML::PatAct::MatchName - A pattern module for matching element names
SYNOPSIS
use XML::PatAct::MatchName;
my $matcher = XML::PatAct::MatchName->new();
my $patterns = [ 'foo' => ACTION,
'bar/foo' => ACTION,
... ];
DESCRIPTION
XML::PatAct::MatchName is a pattern module for use with PatAct drivers for applying pattern-action lists to XML parses or trees. XML::PatAct::MatchName is a simple pattern module that uses just element names to match on. If multiple names are supplied seperated by `CW/' characters, then all of the parent element names must match as well.
The order of patterns in the list is not significant. XML::PatAct::MatchName will use the most specific match. Using the synopsis above as an example, if you have an element `CWfoo', `CWbar/foo' will match if `CWfoo' is in an element `CWbar', otherwise just the pattern with `CWfoo' will match.
