XML::Mini::TreeComponent - Perl implementation of the XML::Mini TreeComponent API.
Don't use this class - only presents an interface for other derived classes.
This class is only to be used as a base class for others.
It presents the minimal interface we can expect from any component in the XML hierarchy.
All methods of this base class simply return NULL except a little default functionality included in the parent() method.
Warning: This class is not to be instatiated. Derive and override.
The parent() method is used to get/set the element's parent.
If the NEWPARENT parameter is passed, sets the parent to NEWPARENT (NEWPARENT must be an instance of a class derived from XML::MiniTreeComponent)
Returns a reference to the parent XML::MiniTreeComponent if set, NULL otherwise.
Return a stringified version of the XML representing this component and all sub-components
Debugging aid, dump returns a nicely formatted dump of the current structure of the XML::Mini::TreeComponent-derived object.
