+ # to the object. For that behavior see the similar methods: .xml_reader and .xml_accessor.
167
+ #
168
+ # == Sym Option
169
+ # [sym] Symbol representing the name of the accessor.
170
+ #
171
+ # === Default naming
172
+ # This name will be the default node or attribute name searched for,
173
+ # if no other is declared. For example,
174
+ #
175
+ # xml_reader :bob
176
+ # xml_accessor :pony, :from => :attr
177
+ #
178
+ # are equivalent to:
179
+ #
180
+ # xml_reader :bob, :from => 'bob'
181
+ # xml_accessor :pony, :from => '@pony'
182
+ #
183
+ # === Boolean attributes
184
+ # If the name ends in a ?, ROXML will attempt to coerce the value to true or false,
185
+ # with True, TRUE, true and 1 mapping to true and False, FALSE, false and 0 mapping
186
+ # to false, as shown below:
187
+ #
188
+ # xml_reader :desirable?
189
+ # xml_reader :bizzare?, :from => '@BIZZARE'
190
+ #
191
+ # x = #from_xml(%{
192
+ # <object BIZZARE="1">
193
+ # <desirable>False</desirable>
194
+ # </object>
195
+ # })
196
+ # x.desirable?
197
+ # => false
198
+ # x.bizzare?
199
+ # => true
200
+ #
201
+ # If an unexpected value is encountered, the attribute will be set to nil,
202
+ # unless you provide a block, in which case the block will recived
203
+ # the actual unexpected value.
204
+ #
205
+ # #from_xml(%{
206
+ # <object>
207
+ # <desirable>Dunno</desirable>
208
+ # </object>
209
+ # }).desirable?
210
+ # => nil
211
+ #
212
+ # xml_reader :strange? do |val|
213
+ # val.upcase
214
+ # end
215
+ #
216
+ # #from_xml(%{
217
+ # <object>
218
+ # <strange>Dunno</strange>
219
+ # </object>
220
+ # }).strange?
221
+ # => DUNNO
222
+ #
223
+ # == Blocks
224
+ # You may also pass a block which manipulates the associated parsed value.
225
+ #
226
+ # class Muffins
227
+ # include ROXML
228
+ #
229
+ # xml_reader(:count, :from => 'bakers_dozens') {|val| val.to_i * 13 }
230
+ # end
231
+ #
232
+ # For hash types, the block recieves the key and value as arguments, and they should
233
+ # be returned as an array of [key, value]
234
+ #
235
+ # For array types, the entire array is passed in, and must be returned in the same fashion.
236
+ #
237
+ # == Options
238
+ # === :as
239
+ # ==== Basic Types
240
+ # Allows you to specify one of several basic types to return the value as. For example
241
+ #
242
+ # xml_reader :count, :as => Integer
243
+ #
244
+ # is equivalent to:
245
+ #
246
+ # xml_reader(:count) {|val| Integer(val) unless val.empty? }
247
+ #
248
+ # Such block shorthands for Integer, Float, Fixnum, BigDecimal, Date, Time, and DateTime
249
+ # are currently available, but only for non-Hash declarations.
250
+ #
251
+ # To reference many elements, put the desired type in a literal array. e.g.:
252
+ #
253
+ # xml_reader :counts, :as => [Integer]
254
+ #
255
+ # Even an array of text nodes can be specified with :as => []
256
+ #
257
+ # xml_reader :quotes, :as => []
258
+ #
259
+ # === Other ROXML Class
260
+ # Declares an accessor that represents another ROXML class as child XML element
261
+ # (one-to-one or composition) or array of child elements (one-to-many or
262
+ # aggregation) of this type. Default is one-to-one. For one-to-many, simply pass the class
263
+ # as the only element in an array.
264
+ #
265
+ # Composition example:
266
+ # <book>
267
+ # <publisher>
268
+ # <name>Pragmatic Bookshelf</name>
269
+ # </publisher>
270
+ # </book>
271
+ #
272
+ # Can be mapped using the following code:
273
+ # class Book
274
+ # xml_reader :publisher, :as => Publisher
275
+ # end
276
+ #
277
+ # Aggregation example:
278
+ # <library>
279
+ # <books>
280
+ # <book/>
281
+ # <book/>
282
+ # </books>
283
+ # </library>
284
+ #
285
+ # Can be mapped using the following code:
286
+ # class Library
287
+ # xml_reader :books, :as => [Book], :in => "books"
288
+ # end
289
+ #
290
+ # If you don't have the <books> tag to wrap around the list of <book> tags:
291
+ # <library>
292
+ # <name>Ruby books</name>
293
+ # <book/>
294
+ # <book/>
295
+ # </library>
296
+ #
297
+ # You can skip the wrapper argument:
298
+ # xml_reader :books, :as => [Book]
299
+ #
300
+ # ==== Hash
301
+ # Somewhere between the simplicity of a :text/:attr mapping, and the complexity of
302
+ # a full Object/Type mapping, lies the Hash mapping. It serves in the case where you have
303
+ # a collection of key-value pairs represented in your xml. You create a hash declaration by
304
+ # passing a hash mapping as the type argument. A few examples:
305
+ #
306
+ # ===== Hash of element contents
307
+ # For xml such as this:
308
+ #
309
+ # <dictionary>
310
+ # <definition>
311
+ # <word/>
312
+ # <meaning/>
313
+ # </definition>
314
+ # <definition>
315
+ # <word/>
316
+ # <meaning/>
317
+ # </definition>
318
+ # </dictionary>
319
+ #
320
+ # You can individually declare your key and value names:
321
+ # xml_reader :definitions, :as => {:key => 'word',
322
+ # :value => 'meaning'}
323
+ #
324
+ # ===== Hash of :content &c.
325
+ # For xml such as this:
326
+ #
327
+ # <dictionary>
328
+ # <definition word="quaquaversally">adjective: (of a geological formation) sloping downward from the center in all directions.</definition>
329
+ # <definition word="tergiversate">To use evasions or ambiguities; equivocate.</definition>
330
+ # </dictionary>
331
+ #
332
+ # You can individually declare the key and value, but with the attr, you need to provide both the type
333
+ # and name of that type (i.e. {:attr => :word}), because omitting the type will result in ROXML
334
+ # defaulting to :text
335
+ # xml_reader :definitions, :as => {:key => {:attr => 'word'},
336
+ # :value => :content}
337
+ #
338
+ # ===== Hash of :name &c.
339
+ # For xml such as this:
340
+ #
341
+ # <dictionary>
342
+ # <quaquaversally>adjective: (of a geological formation) sloping downward from the center in all directions.</quaquaversally>
343
+ # <tergiversate>To use evasions or ambiguities; equivocate.</tergiversate>
344
+ # </dictionary>
345
+ #
346
+ # You can pick up the node names (e.g. quaquaversally) using the :name keyword:
347
+ # xml_reader :definitions, :as => {:key => :name,
348
+ # :value => :content}
349
+ #
350
+ # === :from
351
+ # The name by which the xml value will be found, either an attribute or tag name in XML.
352
+ # Default is sym, or the singular form of sym, in the case of arrays and hashes.
353
+ #
354
+ # This value may also include XPath notation.
355
+ #
356
+ # ==== :from => :content
357
+ # When :from is set to :content, this refers to the content of the current node,
358
+ # rather than a sub-node. It is equivalent to :from => '.'
359
+ #
360
+ # Example:
361
+ # class Contributor
362
+ # xml_reader :name, :from => :content
363
+ # xml_reader :role, :from => :attr
364
+ # end
365
+ #
366
+ # To map:
367
+ # <contributor role="editor">James Wick</contributor>
368
+ #
369
+ # ==== :from => :attr
370
+ # When :from is set to :attr, this refers to the content of an attribute,
371
+ # rather than a sub-node. It is equivalent to :from => '@attribute_name'
372
+ #
373
+ # Example:
374
+ # class Book
375
+ # xml_reader :isbn, :from => "@ISBN"
376
+ # xml_accessor :title, :from => :attr # :from defaults to '@title'
377
+ # end
378
+ #
379
+ # To map:
380
+ # <book ISBN="0974514055" title="Programming Ruby: the pragmatic programmers' guide" />
381
+ #
382
+ # ==== :from => :text
383
+ # The default source, if none is specified, this means the accessor
384
+ # represents a text node from XML. This is documented for completeness
385
+ # only. You should just leave this option off when you want the default behavior,
386
+ # as in the examples below.
387
+ #
388
+ # :text is equivalent to :from => accessor_name, and you should specify the
389
+ # actual node name (and, optionally, a namespace) if it differs, as in the case of :author below.
390
+ #
391
+ # Example:
392
+ # class Book
393
+ # xml_reader :author, :from => 'Author'
394
+ # xml_accessor :description, :cdata => true
395
+ # xml_reader :title
396
+ # end
397
+ #
398
+ # To map:
399
+ # <book>
400
+ # <title>Programming Ruby: the pragmatic programmers' guide</title>
401
+ # <description><![CDATA[Probably the best Ruby book out there]]></description>
402
+ # <Author>David Thomas</Author>
403
+ # </book>
404
+ #
405
+ # Likewise, a number of :text node values can be collected in an array like so:
406
+ #
407
+ # Example:
408
+ # class Library
409
+ # xml_reader :books, :as => []
410
+ # end
411
+ #
412
+ # To map:
413
+ # <library>
414
+ # <book>To kill a mockingbird</book>
415
+ # <book>House of Leaves</book>
416
+ # <book>Gödel, Escher, Bach</book>
417
+ # </library>
418
+ #
419
+ # === Other Options
420
+ # [:in] An optional name of a wrapping tag for this XML accessor.
421
+ # This can include other xpath values, which will be joined with :from with a '/'
422
+ # [:else] Default value for attribute, if missing from the xml on .from_xml
423
+ # [:required] If true, throws RequiredElementMissing when the element isn't present
424
+ # [:frozen] If true, all results are frozen (using #freeze) at parse-time.
425
+ # [:cdata] true for values which should be input from or output as cdata elements
426
+ # [:to_xml] this proc is applied to the attributes value outputting the instance via #to_xml
427
+ # [:namespace] (false) disables or (string) overrides the default namespace declared with xml_namespace
