Schema::Node(3pm)

💖 Schema::Node(3pm) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the User Contributed Perl Documentation section of the manual, and this little cutie right here is Schema::Node(3pm) — yes the page name and the thing it documents are lowkey wearing the same outfit, iconic behavior honestly 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

XML::Validator::Schema::Node — it's a base class, bestie. That's the whole vibe. 🫶

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So picture the schema tree, right? Every node in that tree has a parent, and that parent is... this. Schema::Node is the base class for all the nodes chilling in the schema tree. 🦋

And it's not picky about who its children are either — it gets used by both kinds of node:

• the temporary nodes that get resolved while compilation is happening (for example, ::ModelNode) — they're like the situationship nodes, here for the compile and then gone ✨
• the permanent nodes (for example, ::ElementNode) — the ones that are actually committing, main character energy 👑

⚠️ but bestie, listen — this is an abstract base class and it may not be directly instantiated. Do not try to make one yourself. She is not for you to instantiate. She is the blueprint. Periodt. 💅

💀 the whole point, fr fr

Base class = you inherit from it, you don't be it. It's giving "mother of the schema tree" and the way that it holds everything together without ever showing up as an actual object is honestly so real of it. No cap. 🌈

and that's the tea 🍓 — this page lives under perl v5.32.0 and was dated 2021-01-05, so shoutout to that version and that date for making this whole thing possible. mwah 💖 bye bestie, go subclass responsibly! 🧚✨
