* Document-class: LibXML::XML::XPath
*
* The XML::XPath module is used to query XML documents. It is
* usually accessed via the XML::Document#find or
* XML::Node#find methods. For example:
*
* document.find('/foo', namespaces) -> XML::XPath::Object
*
* The optional namespaces parameter can be a string, array or
* hash table.
*
* document.find('/foo', 'xlink:http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink')
* document.find('/foo', ['xlink:http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink',
* 'xi:http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude')
* document.find('/foo', 'xlink' => 'http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink',
* 'xi' => 'http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude')
*
*
* === Working With Default Namespaces
*
* Finding namespaced elements and attributes can be tricky.
* Lets work through an example of a document with a default
* namespace:
*
*
*
* Phil Bogle's Contacts
*
*
* To find nodes you must define the atom namespace for
* libxml. One way to do this is:
*
* node = doc.find('atom:title', 'atom:http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom')
*
* Alternatively, you can register the default namespace like this:
*
* doc.root.register_default_namespace('atom')
* node = doc.find('atom:title')
*
* === More Complex Namespace Examples
*
* Lets work through some more complex examples using the
* following xml document:
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
* # Since the soap namespace is defined on the root
* # node we can directly use it.
* doc.find('/soap:Envelope')
*
* # Since the ns1 namespace is not defined on the root node
* # we have to first register it with the xpath engine.
* doc.find('//ns1:IdAndName',
* 'ns1:http://domain.somewhere.com')
*
* # Since the getManufacturerNamesResponse element uses a default
* # namespace we first have to give it a prefix and register
* # it with the xpath engine.
* doc.find('//ns:getManufacturerNamesResponse',
* 'ns:http://services.somewhere.com')
*
* # Here is an example showing a complex namespace aware
* # xpath expression.
* doc.find('/soap:Envelope/soap:Body/ns0:getManufacturerNamesResponse/ns0:IDAndNameList/ns1:IdAndName',
['ns0:http://services.somewhere.com', 'ns1:http://domain.somewhere.com'])
