module ActiveRecord #:nodoc:
module XmlSerialization
# Builds an XML document to represent the model. Some configuration is
# availble through +options+, however more complicated cases should use
# override ActiveRecord's to_xml.
#
# By default the generated XML document will include the processing
# instruction and all object's attributes. For example:
#
# <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
# <topic>
# <title>The First Topic</title>
# <author-name>David</author-name>
# <id type="integer">1</id>
# <approved type="boolean">false</approved>
# <replies-count type="integer">0</replies-count>
# <bonus-time type="datetime">2000-01-01T08:28:00+12:00</bonus-time>
# <written-on type="datetime">2003-07-16T09:28:00+1200</written-on>
# <content>Have a nice day</content>
# <author-email-address>david@loudthinking.com</author-email-address>
# <parent-id></parent-id>
# <last-read type="date">2004-04-15</last-read>
# </topic>
#
# This behavior can be controlled with :only, :except,
# :skip_instruct, :skip_types and :dasherize. The :only and
# :except options are the same as for the #attributes method.
# The default is to dasherize all column names, to disable this,
# set :dasherize to false. To not have the column type included
# in the XML output, set :skip_types to false.
#
# For instance:
#
# topic.to_xml(:skip_instruct => true, :except => [ :id, :bonus_time, :written_on, :replies_count ])
#

# <id type="integer">1</id>
# <credit-limit type="integer">50</credit-limit>

#
# To include any methods on the object(s) being called use :methods
#
# firm.to_xml :methods => [ :calculated_earnings, :real_earnings ]
#
# <firm>
# # ... normal attributes as shown above ...
# <calculated-earnings>100000000000000000</calculated-earnings>
# <real-earnings>5</real-earnings>
# </firm>
#
# To call any Proc's on the object(s) use :procs. The Proc's
# are passed a modified version of the options hash that was
# given to #to_xml.
#
# proc = Proc.new { |options| options[:builder].tag!('abc', 'def') }
# firm.to_xml :procs => [ proc ]
