XML/YYLex version 0.03 ====================== $Id: README,v 1.2 2003/01/11 00:50:17 daniel Exp $ XML::YYLex is a helper module that helps you build XML-parsing applications with the help of byacc (Berkeley Yacc). A DOM-parser is used as what is traditionally called a scanner (or tokenizer). Currently XML::DOM and XML::Sablotron::DOM are supported, but others might be added. INSTALLATION To install this module type the following: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install DEPENDENCIES In order to be useful, you probably need one of the following DOM-parsers: - XML::DOM (tested with version 1.41) - XML::Sablotron::DOM (tested with 0.96 and 0.90) You further need a version of perl-byacc, which is a version of Berkeley Yacc that can produce perl-code. I couldn't find the original site, but you can find it on Debian. I developed and tested the module with perl 5.8.0 and made it work with perl 5.6.1 now. Older versions might work if the prerequisites above are fulfilled. I don't know if the test framework generated by h2xs still works with older versions of perl. Let me know about your problems or if you get it running on older versions.
