DESCRIPTION

28       SVG::Parser::Expat is the Expat-specific parser module used by
29       SVG::Parser when an underlying XML::Parser-based parser is selected. It
30       may also be used directly, as shown in the synopsis above.
31
32       Use SVG::Parser to retain maximum flexibility as to which underlying
33       parser is chosen.  Use SVG::Parser::Expat to supply Expat-specific
34       parser options or where the presence of XML::Parser is known and/or
35       preferred.
36
37   EXPORTS
38       None. However, an alternative parent class (other than XML::Parser) can
39       be specified by passing the package name to SVG::Parser::Expat in the
40       import list. For example:
41
42           use SVG::Parser::Expat qw(My::XML::Parser::Subclass);
43
44       Where My::XML::Parser::Subclass is a subclass like:
45
46           package My::XML::Parser::Subclass;
47           use strict;
48           use vars qw(@ISA);
49           use XML::Parser;
50           @ISA=qw(XML::Parser);
51
52           ...custom methods...
53
54           1;
55
56       When loaded via SVG::Parser, this parent class may be specified by
57       placing it after the '=' in a parser specification:
58
59           use SVG::Parser qw(Expat=My::XML::Parser::Subclass);
60
61       See SVG::Parser for more details.
