XML::Li...ASection(3)

💖 XML::LibXML::CDATASection — bestie edition 💖

okay so this is the manual page for XML::LibXML::CDATASection(3), from the User Contributed Perl Documentation section, and it's literally just the glow-up era of text nodes. no cap.

---

✨ NAME ✨

XML::LibXML::CDATASection — the XML::LibXML class for CDATA sections. she's a whole vibe and she knows it 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

use XML::LibXML;
# Only methods specific to CDATA nodes are listed here,
# see the XML::LibXML::Node manpage for other methods

$node = XML::LibXML::CDATASection->new( $content );

like, that's it. that's the whole entrance. she's lowkey minimal and highkey iconic 🎀

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so this class provides all the functions of XML::LibXML::Text, but for CDATA nodes. same energy, different node type. it's giving "i'm my sibling but with better accessories" ✨

---

💜 METHODS 💜

The class inherits from XML::LibXML::Node. The documentation for Inherited methods is not listed here. (so don't come for me asking where they are, bestie, they live in their own page 👑)

Many functions listed here are extensively documented in the DOM Level 3 specification (<http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-3-Core/>). Please refer to the specification for extensive documentation. fr fr, the spec is the main character here.

⭐ new

$node = XML::LibXML::CDATASection->new( $content );

The constructor is the only provided function for this package. It is required, because libxml2 treats the different text node types slightly differently.

not me explaining that you literally cannot skip this one — there is no other function in the whole package, so this is the one. she's the only child. she's required. periodt 💀
