XML::Generator::DOM - XML::Generator subclass for producing DOM trees instead of strings.

       These configuration options are accepted but have no effect on the semantics of the returned object:
       escape, pretty, conformance and empty.

       XML::Generator::DOM subclasses XML::Generator in order to produce DOM trees instead of strings (see
       XML::Generator and XML::DOM).  This module is still experimental and its semantics might change.

       Essentially, tag methods return XML::DOM::DocumentFragment objects, constructed either from a DOM
       document passed into the constructor or a default document that XML::Generator::DOM will automatically
       construct.

       Calling the xml() method will return this automatically constructed document and cause a fresh one to be
       constructed for future tag method calls.  If you passed in your own document, you may not call the xml()
       method.

       Below, we just note the remaining differences in semantics between XML::Generator methods and
       XML::Generator::DOM methods.

       XML::Generator::DOM - XML::Generator subclass for producing DOM trees instead of strings.

       All special tags are available by default with XML::Generator::DOM; you don't need to use 'conformance'
       => 'strict'.

   xmlpi(@args)
       Arguments will simply be concatenated and passed as the data to the XML::DOM::ProcessingInstruction
       object that is returned.

   xmlcmnt
       Escaping of '--' is done by XML::DOM::Comment, which replaces both hyphens with '-'.  An
       XML::DOM::Comment object is returned.

   xmldecl
       Returns an XML::DOM::XMLDecl object.  Respects 'version', 'encoding' and 'dtd' settings in the object.

   xmldecl
       Returns an XML::DOM::DocumentType object.

   xmlcdata
       Returns an XML::DOM::CDATASection object.

   xml
       As described above, xml() can only be used when dom_document was not set in the object.  The
       automatically created document will have its XML Declaration set and the arguments to xml() will be
       appended to it.  Then a new DOM document is automatically generated and the old one is returned.  This is
       the only way to get a DOM document from this module.

perl v5.36.0                                       2023-06-11                           XML::Generator::DOM(3pm)

               use XML::Generator::DOM;

               my $dg  = XML::Generator::DOM->new();
               my $doc = $dg->xml($dg->xmlcmnt("Test document."),
                                  $dg->foo({'baz' => 'bam'}, 42));
               print $doc->toString;

       yields:

               <?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
               <!--Test document-->
               <foo baz="bam">42</foo>

       Subsequently, tag method semantics are somewhat different for this module compared to XML::Generator.
       The primary difference is that tag method return XML::DOM::DocumentFragment objects.  Namespace and
       attribute processing remains the same, but remaining arguments to tag methods must either be text or
       other XML::DOM::DocumentFragment objects.  No escape processing, syntax checking, or output control is
       done; this is all left up to XML::DOM.
