XMLReader functions

Introductie

The XMLReader extension is an XML Pull parser. The reader acts as a cursor going forward on the document stream and stopping at each node on the way.

Encoding

It is important to note that internally, libxml uses the UTF-8 encoding and as such, the encoding of the retrieved contents will always be in UTF-8 encoding.

Installatie

The XMLReader extension is available in PECL as of PHP 5.0.0 and is included and enabled as of PHP 5.1.0 by default. It can be enabled by adding the argument --enable-xmlreader (or --with-xmlreader before 5.1.0) to your configure line. The libxml extension is required.

Voorgedefinieerde constanten

Deze constanten worden gedefinieerd door deze extensie, en zullen alleen beschikbaar zijn als de extensie met PHP is meegecompileerd, of als deze dynamisch is geladen vanuit een script.

Warning

XMLReader uses class constants since PHP 5.1. Prior releases use global constants in the form XMLREADER_ELEMENT.
