Module: REXML

Defined in:

lib/xmpp4r/rexmladdons.rb

Overview

REXML module. This file only adds the following methods to the REXML module, to ease the coding:

• replace_element_text

• first_element

• first_element_text

• typed_add

• import

• self.import

• delete_elements

Further definitions are just copied from REXML out of Ruby-1.8.4 to solve issues with REXML in Ruby-1.8.2.

The redefinitions of Text::normalize and Attribute#initialize address an issue where entities in element texts and attributes were not escaped. This modifies the behavious of REXML a bit but Sean Russell intends a similar behaviour for the future of REXML.

Defined Under Namespace

Classes: Attribute, Element, IOSource, Text, XPathParser
