Excel::ValueReader::XLSX::Backend -- abstract class, parent for the Regex and LibXML backends
Excel::ValueReader::XLSX has two possible implementation backends for parsing XLSX files : Excel::ValueReader::XLSX::Backend::Regex, based on regular expressions, or Excel::ValueReader::XLSX::Backend::LibXML, based on the libxml2 library. Both backends share some common features, so the present class implements those common features. This is about internal implementation; it should be of no interest to external users of the module.
XLSX
A backend instance possesses the following attributes :
a weak reference to the frontend instance
an Archive::Zip instance for accessing the contents of the xlsx file
xlsx
an array of numeric styles for presenting dates and times. Styles are either Excel's builtin styles, or custom styles defined in the workbook.
an array of all shared strings within the workbook
some metadata information about the workbook
Not defined in this abstract class, but implemented in subclasses.
Inspects all cells within the XSLX files and returns a bi-dimensional array of values.
