Added Hash#to_xml and Array#to_xml that makes it much easier to produce XML from basic structures [DHH] Moved Jim Weirich's wonderful Builder from Action Pack to Active Support (it's simply too useful to be stuck in AP) [DHH]

Use the <tt><<</tt> operation to - # insert text without modification. - # - # * Sometimes tags use special characters not allowed in ruby - # identifiers. Use the <tt>tag!</tt> method to handle these - # cases. - # - # Example: - # - # xml.tag!("SOAP:Envelope") { ... } - # - # will produce ... - # - # <SOAP:Envelope> ... </SOAP:Envelope>" - # - # <tt>tag!</tt> will also take text and attribute arguments (after - # the tag name) like normal markup methods. (But see the next - # bullet item for a better way to handle XML namespaces). - # - # * Direct support for XML namespaces is now available. If the - # first argument to a tag call is a symbol, it will be joined to - # the tag to produce a namespace:tag combination. It is easier to - # show this than describe it. - # - # xml.SOAP :Envelope do ... end - # - # Just put a space before the colon in a namespace to produce the - # right form for builder (e.g. "<tt>SOAP:Envelope</tt>" => - # "<tt>xml.SOAP :Envelope</tt>") - # - # * XmlMarkup builds the markup in any object (called a _target_) - # that accepts the <tt><<</tt> method. If no target is given, - # then XmlMarkup defaults to a string target. - # - # Examples: - # - # xm = Builder::XmlMarkup.new - # result = xm.title("yada") - # # result is a string containing the markup. - # - # buffer = "" - # xm = Builder::XmlMarkup.new(buffer) - # # The markup is appended to buffer (using <<) - # - # xm = Builder::XmlMarkup.new(STDOUT) - # # The markup is written to STDOUT (using <<) - # - # xm = Builder::XmlMarkup.new - # x2 = Builder::XmlMarkup.new(:target=>xm) - # # Markup written to +x2+ will be send to +xm+. - # - # * Indentation is enabled by providing the number of spaces to - # indent for each level as a second argument to XmlBuilder.new. - # Initial indentation may be specified using a third parameter. - # - # Example: - # - # xm = Builder.new(:ident=>2) - # # xm will produce nicely formatted and indented XML. - # - # xm = Builder.new(:indent=>2, :margin=>4) - # # xm will produce nicely formatted and indented XML with 2 - # # spaces per indent and an over all indentation level of 4. - # - # builder = Builder::XmlMarkup.new(:target=>$stdout, :indent=>2) - # builder.name { |b| b.first("Jim"); b.last("Weirich) } - # # prints: - # # <name> - # # <first>Jim</first> - # # <last>Weirich</last> - # # </name> - # - # * The instance_eval implementation which forces self to refer to - # the message receiver as self is now obsolete. We now use normal - # block calls to execute the markup block. This means that all - # markup methods must now be explicitly send to the xml builder. - # For instance, instead of - # - # xml.div { strong("text") } - # - # you need to write: - # - # xml.div { xml.strong("text") } - # - # Although more verbose, the subtle change in semantics within the - # block was found to be prone to error. To make this change a - # little less cumbersome, the markup block now gets the markup - # object sent as an argument, allowing you to use a shorter alias - # within the block. - # - # For example: - # - # xml_builder = Builder::XmlMarkup.new - # xml_builder.div { |xml| - # xml.stong("text") - # } - # - class XmlMarkup < XmlBase - - # Create an XML markup builder.
