+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This is a perl interface to libxml2's pull-parser implementation xmlTextReader I<<<<<< http://xmlsoft.org/html/libxml-xmlreader.html >>>>>>. This feature requires at least libxml2-2.6.21. Pull-parser (StAX in Java,
+XmlReader in C#) use an iterator approach to parse a xml-file. They are easier
+to program than event-based parser (SAX) and much more lightweight than
+tree-based parser (DOM), which load the complete tree into memory.
+
+The Reader acts as a cursor going forward on the document stream and stopping
+at each node in the way. At every point DOM-like methods of the Reader object
+allow to examine the current node (name, namespace, attributes, etc.)
+
+The user's code keeps control of the progress and simply calls the C<<<<<< read() >>>>>> function repeatedly to progress to the next node in the document order. Other
+functions provide means for skipping complete sub-trees, or nodes until a
+specific element, etc.
+
+At every time, only a very limited portion of the document is kept in the
+memory, which makes the API more memory-efficient than using DOM. However, it
+is also possible to mix Reader with DOM. At every point the user may copy the
+current node (optionally expanded into a complete sub-tree) from the processed
+document to another DOM tree, or to instruct the Reader to collect sub-document
+in form of a DOM tree consisting of selected nodes.
+
+Reader API also supports namespaces, xml:base, entity handling, and DTD
+validation. Schema and RelaxNG validation support will probably be added in
+some later revision of the Perl interface.
+
+The naming of methods compared to libxml2 and C# XmlTextReader has been changed
+slightly to match the conventions of XML::LibXML. Some functions have been
+changed or added with respect to the C interface.
+
+
+=head1 CONSTRUCTOR
+
+Depending on the XML source, the Reader object can be created with either of:
+
+
+
+  my $reader = XML::LibXML::Reader->new( location => "file.xml", ... );
+    my $reader = XML::LibXML::Reader->new( string => $xml_string, ... );
+    my $reader = XML::LibXML::Reader->new( IO => $file_handle, ... );
+    my $reader = XML::LibXML::Reader->new( FD => fileno(STDIN), ... );
+    my $reader = XML::LibXML::Reader->new( DOM => $dom, ... );
+
+where ... are (optional) reader options described below in L<<<<<< Reader options >>>>>> or various parser options described in L<<<<<< XML::LibXML::Parser >>>>>>. The constructor recognizes the following XML sources:
+
+

+
+=item location
+
+Read XML from a local file or URL.
+
+
+=item string
+
+Read XML from a string.
+
+
+=item IO
+
+Read XML a Perl IO filehandle.
+
+
+=item FD
+
+Read XML from a file descriptor (bypasses Perl I/O layer, only applicable to
+filehandles for regular files or pipes). Possibly faster than IO.
+
+
+=item DOM
+
+Use reader API to walk through a pre-parsed L<<<<<< XML::LibXML::Document >>>>>>.

+
+can be used to pass either a L<<<<<< XML::LibXML::RelaxNG >>>>>> object or a filename or URL of a RelaxNG schema to the constructor. The schema
+is then used to validate the document as it is processed.
+
+
+=item Schema => $xsd_schema
+
+can be used to pass either a L<<<<<< XML::LibXML::Schema >>>>>> object or a filename or URL of a W3C XSD schema to the constructor. The schema
+is then used to validate the document as it is processed.

+
+
+=head1 METHODS CONTROLLING PARSING PROGRESS
+
+=over 4
+
+=item read ()
+
+Moves the position to the next node in the stream, exposing its properties.
+
+Returns 1 if the node was read successfully, 0 if there is no more nodes to
+read, or -1 in case of error
+
+
+=item readAttributeValue ()
+
+Parses an attribute value into one or more Text and EntityReference nodes.
+
+Returns 1 in case of success, 0 if the reader was not positioned on an
+attribute node or all the attribute values have been read, or -1 in case of
+error.
+
+
+=item readState ()
+
+Gets the read state of the reader. Returns the state value, or -1 in case of
+error. The module exports constants for the Reader states, see STATES below.
+
+
+=item depth ()
+
+The depth of the node in the tree, starts at 0 for the root node.
+
+
+=item next ()
+
+Skip to the node following the current one in the document order while avoiding
+the sub-tree if any. Returns 1 if the node was read successfully, 0 if there is
+no more nodes to read, or -1 in case of error.
+
+
+=item nextElement (localname?,nsURI?)
+
+Skip nodes following the current one in the document order until a specific
+element is reached. The element's name must be equal to a given localname if
+defined, and its namespace must equal to a given nsURI if defined. Either of
+the arguments can be undefined (or omitted, in case of the latter or both).
+
+Returns 1 if the element was found, 0 if there is no more nodes to read, or -1
+in case of error.
+
+
+=item nextPatternMatch (compiled_pattern)
+
+Skip nodes following the current one in the document order until an element
+matching a given compiled pattern is reached. See L<<<<<< XML::LibXML::Pattern >>>>>> for information on compiled patterns. See also the C<<<<<< matchesPattern >>>>>> method.
+
+Returns 1 if the element was found, 0 if there is no more nodes to read, or -1
+in case of error.
+
+
+=item skipSiblings ()
+
+Skip all nodes on the same or lower level until the first node on a higher
+level is reached. In particular, if the current node occurs in an element, the
+reader stops at the end tag of the parent element, otherwise it stops at a node
+immediately following the parent node.
+
+Returns 1 if successful, 0 if end of the document is reached, or -1 in case of
+error.
+
+
+=item nextSibling ()
+
+It skips to the node following the current one in the document order while
+avoiding the sub-tree if any.
+
+Returns 1 if the node was read successfully, 0 if there is no more nodes to
+read, or -1 in case of error
+
+
+=item nextSiblingElement (name?,nsURI?)
+
+Like nextElement but only processes sibling elements of the current node
+(moving forward using C<<<<<< nextSibling () >>>>>> rather than C<<<<<< read () >>>>>>, internally).
+
+Returns 1 if the element was found, 0 if there is no more sibling nodes, or -1
+in case of error.
+
+
+=item finish ()
+
+Skip all remaining nodes in the document, reaching end of the document.
+
+Returns 1 if successful, 0 in case of error.
+
+
+=item close ()
+
+This method releases any resources allocated by the current instance and closes
+any underlying input. It returns 0 on failure and 1 on success. This method is
+automatically called by the destructor when the reader is forgotten, therefore
+you do not have to call it directly.
+
+
+
+=back
+
+
+=head1 METHODS EXTRACTING INFORMATION
+
+=over 4
+
+=item name ()
+
+Returns the qualified name of the current node, equal to (Prefix:)LocalName.
+
+
+=item nodeType ()
+
+Returns the type of the current node. See NODE TYPES below.
+
+
+=item localName ()
+
+Returns the local name of the node.
+
+
+=item prefix ()
+
+Returns the prefix of the namespace associated with the node.
+
+
+=item namespaceURI ()
+
+Returns the URI defining the namespace associated with the node.
+
+
+=item isEmptyElement ()
+
+Check if the current node is empty, this is a bit bizarre in the sense that
+<a/> will be considered empty while <a></a> will not.
+
+
+=item hasValue ()
+
+Returns true if the node can have a text value.
+
+
+=item value ()
+
+Provides the text value of the node if present or undef if not available.
+
+
+=item readInnerXml ()
+
+Reads the contents of the current node, including child nodes and markup.
+Returns a string containing the XML of the node's content, or undef if the
+current node is neither an element nor attribute, or has no child nodes.
+
+
+=item readOuterXml ()
+
+Reads the contents of the current node, including child nodes and markup.
+
+Returns a string containing the XML of the node including its content, or undef
+if the current node is neither an element nor attribute.
+
+
+=item nodePath()
+
+Returns a cannonical location path to the current element from the root node to
+the current node. Namespaced elements are matched by '*', because there is no
+way to declare prefixes within XPath patterns. Unlike C<<<<<< XML::LibXML::Node::nodePath() >>>>>>, this function does not provide sibling counts (i.e. instead of e.g. '/a/b[1]'
+and '/a/b[2]' you get '/a/b' for both matches). 
+
+
+=item matchesPattern(compiled_pattern)
+
+Returns a true value if the current node matches a compiled pattern. See L<<<<<< XML::LibXML::Pattern >>>>>> for information on compiled patterns. See also the C<<<<<< nextPatternMatch >>>>>> method.
+
+
+
+=back
+
+
+=head1 METHODS EXTRACTING DOM NODES
+
+=over 4
+
+=item document ()
+
+Provides access to the document tree built by the reader. This function can be
+used to collect the preserved nodes (see C<<<<<< preserveNode() >>>>>> and preservePattern).
+
+CAUTION: Never use this function to modify the tree unless reading of the whole
+document is completed!
+
+
+=item copyCurrentNode (deep)
+
+This function is similar a DOM function C<<<<<< copyNode() >>>>>>. It returns a copy of the currently processed node as a corresponding DOM
+object. Use deep = 1 to obtain the full sub-tree.
+
+
+=item preserveNode ()
+
+This tells the XML Reader to preserve the current node in the document tree. A
+document tree consisting of the preserved nodes and their content can be
+obtained using the method C<<<<<< document() >>>>>> once parsing is finished.
+
+Returns the node or NULL in case of error.
+
+
+=item preservePattern (pattern,\%ns_map)
+
+This tells the XML Reader to preserve all nodes matched by the pattern (which
+is a streaming XPath subset). A document tree consisting of the preserved nodes
+and their content can be obtained using the method C<<<<<< document() >>>>>> once parsing is finished.
+
+An optional second argument can be used to provide a HASH reference mapping
+prefixes used by the XPath to namespace URIs.
+
+The XPath subset available with this function is described at
+
+
+
+  http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-1/#Selector
+
+and matches the production
+
+
+
+  Path ::= ('.//')? ( Step '/' )* ( Step | '@' NameTest )
+
+Returns a positive number in case of success and -1 in case of error

+case of error.
+
+
+=item getAttributeNs (localName, namespaceURI)
+
+Provides the value of the specified attribute.
+
+Returns a string containing the value of the specified attribute, or undef in
+case of error.
+
+
+=item getAttributeNo (no)
+
+Provides the value of the attribute with the specified index relative to the
+containing element.
+
+Returns a string containing the value of the specified attribute, or undef in
+case of error.
+
+
+=item isDefault ()
+
+Returns true if the current attribute node was generated from the default value
+defined in the DTD.
+
+
+=item moveToAttribute (name)
+
+Moves the position to the attribute with the specified local name and namespace
+URI.
+
+Returns 1 in case of success, -1 in case of error, 0 if not found
+
+
+=item moveToAttributeNo (no)
+
+Moves the position to the attribute with the specified index relative to the
+containing element.
+
+Returns 1 in case of success, -1 in case of error, 0 if not found
+
+
+=item moveToAttributeNs (localName,namespaceURI)
+
+Moves the position to the attribute with the specified local name and namespace
+URI.
+
+Returns 1 in case of success, -1 in case of error, 0 if not found
+
+
+=item moveToFirstAttribute ()

+
+
+=item isNamespaceDecl ()
+
+Determine whether the current node is a namespace declaration rather than a
+regular attribute.
+
+Returns 1 if the current node is a namespace declaration, 0 if it is a regular
+attribute or other type of node, or -1 in case of error.
+
+
+
+=back
+
+
+=head1 OTHER METHODS
+
+=over 4
+
+=item lookupNamespace (prefix)
+
+Resolves a namespace prefix in the scope of the current element.
+
+Returns a string containing the namespace URI to which the prefix maps or undef
+in case of error.
+
+
+=item encoding ()
+
+Returns a string containing the encoding of the document or undef in case of
+error.
+
+
+=item standalone ()
+
+Determine the standalone status of the document being read. Returns 1 if the

+
+
+=item byteConsumed ()
+
+This function provides the current index of the parser relative to the start of
+the current entity. This function is computed in bytes from the beginning
+starting at zero and finishing at the size in bytes of the file if parsing a
+file. The function is of constant cost if the input is UTF-8 but can be costly
+if run on non-UTF-8 input.
+
+
+=item setParserProp (prop => value, ...)
+
+Change the parser processing behaviour by changing some of its internal
+properties. The following properties are available with this function:
+``load_ext_dtd'', ``complete_attributes'', ``validation'', ``expand_entities''.
+
+Since some of the properties can only be changed before any read has been done,
+it is best to set the parsing properties at the constructor.

+
+
+=head1 DESTRUCTION
+
+XML::LibXML takes care of the reader object destruction when the last reference
+to the reader object goes out of scope. The document tree is preserved, though,
