NAME

PRANG::XMLSchema::Whatever - node type for nested anything

SYNOPSIS

 package My::XML::Element::Type;
 use Moose;
 use PRANG::Graph;

 has 'error_fragment' =>
    is => "rw",
    isa => "PRANG::XMLSchema::Whatever",
    ;

DESCRIPTION

Some schema allow sections of responses to be schema-free; typically this is used for error responses which are allowed to include the errant section of XML.

Fortunately, PRANG is flexible enough that this is quite easy to do. The result of the operation is a nested set of PRANG::XMLSchema::Whatever objects, which have two properties contents and attributes, which store the sub-elements and attributes of the element at that point. There is also the attribute nodenames which stores the node names of nodes. Once it is supported, there will also be an attribute indicating the XML namespaces of attributes and elements (currently they will not round-trip successfully).

This API is somewhat experimental, and may be broken down into various versions of 'whatever' - see the source for more.
