XML and Perl

A number of XML Perl modules are available for working with XML. These include some XML Parsers that have been implemented in Perl as well as some that serve as Perl interfaces to other XML applications. Here is a selection of XML-related Perl tools:

• XML::XPath (http://xml.sergeant.org/xpath.xml)— This is a Perl module that allows for the processing of XPath information.

• XML::Parser (http://wwwx.netheaven.com/~coopercc/xmlparser/intro.html)— XML::Parser is a Perl extension module that serves as an interface to the expat parser from James Clark.

• Xerces Perl (http://xml.apache.org/xerces-p/index.html)— This is a Perl implementation of the Apache Project's open source XML parser, Xerces.

• XT (http://www.jclark.com/xml/xt.html)— This is a Perl implementation of the XT parser from James Clark.
