.SH NAME
Pod::Simple::DumpAsXML \-\- turn Pod into XML
.SH SYNOPSIS
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
.Vb 3

.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
Pod::Simple::DumpAsXML is a subclass of Pod::Simple that parses Pod
and turns it into indented and wrapped XML.  This class is of
interest to people writing Pod formatters based on Pod::Simple.
.PP
Pod::Simple::DumpAsXML inherits methods from
Pod::Simple.
.SH "SEE ALSO"
.IX Header "SEE ALSO"
Pod::Simple::XMLOutStream is rather like this class.
Pod::Simple::XMLOutStream's output is space-padded in a way
that's better for sending to an XML processor (that is, it has
no ignorable whitespace). But
Pod::Simple::DumpAsXML's output is much more human-readable, being
(more-or-less) one token per line, with line-wrapping.
.PP
Pod::Simple::DumpAsText is rather like this class,
except that it doesn't dump with XML syntax.  Try them and see
which one you like best!
.PP
Pod::Simple, Pod::Simple::DumpAsXML
.PP
The older libraries Pod::PXML, Pod::XML, Pod::SAX
