XmlBase is a base class for building XML builders. See Builder::XmlMarkup
and Builder::XmlEvents for examples.
| Public Methods |
| << |
Append text to the output target without escaping any markup. May be used
within the markup brackets as:
|
| method_missing |
Create XML markup based on the name of the method. This method is never
invoked directly, but is called for each markup method in the markup block.
|
| new |
Create an XML markup builder.
|
| nil? |
For some reason, nil? is sent to the XmlMarkup object. If nil? is not
defined and method_missing is invoked, some strange kind of recursion
happens. Since nil? won’t ever be an XML tag, it is pretty safe to
define it here. (Note: this is an example of cargo cult programming, cf. fishbowl.pastiche.org/2004/10/13/cargo_cult_progra...).
|
| tag! |
Create a tag named sym. Other than the first argument which is the
tag name, the arguments are the same as the tags implemented via
method_missing.
|
| text! |
Append text to the output target. Escape any markup. May be used within the
markup brackets as:
|
<code/>and<pre/>for code samples.
