= Builder 2.0.0 Released.
== Changes in 2.0.0
* UTF-8 characters in data are now correctly translated to their XML
equivalents. (Thanks to Sam Ruby)
* Attribute values are now escaped by default. See the README
file for details.
<b>NOTE:</b> The escaping attribute values by default is different
than in previous releases of Builder. This makes version 2.0.0
somewhat incompatible with the 1.x series of Builder. If you use "&",
"<", or ">" in attributes values, you may have to change your
code. (Essentially you remove the manual escaping. The new way is
easier, believe me).
== What is Builder?
Builder::XmlMarkup is a library that allows easy programmatic creation
of XML markup. For example:
builder = Builder::XmlMarkup.new(:target=>STDOUT, :indent=>2)
builder.person { |b| b.name("Jim"); b.phone("555-1234") }
will generate:
<person>
<name>Jim</name>
<phone>555-1234</phone>
</person>
== Availability
The easiest way to get and install builder is via RubyGems ...
gem install builder (you may need root/admin privileges)
== Thanks
* Sam Ruby for the XChar module and the related UTF-8 translation
tools.
* Also to Sam Ruby for gently persuading me to start quoting attribute
values.
