XML::XP...:Comment(3)

💖 NAME 💖

Comment — bestie, it's an XML comment: <!--comment--> ✨

Like, that's literally it. A whole lil node whose only job is to sit in your XML and say stuff without being, y'know, content. Main character of the comments section fr fr 💅

🎀 API 🎀

🌸 new ( data )

Creates a brand new comment node. Fresh out the box, no cap. You hand it data, it hands you back a whole comment. Slay 🦋

🌸 getValue / getData

Returns the value that's chillin' inside the comment. Two names, same vibe — call it either one, she answers to both 💜

🌸 toString

Returns the comment as a string, and here's the tea ☕: if the comment text has a -- in it, that gets encoded as a numeric entity. So your -- doesn't cause chaos. Iconic behaviour, honestly 👑
