[ANNOUNCEMENT] XML_Serializer-0.6 (beta) Released.

The new PEAR package XML_Serializer-0.6 (beta) has been released at http://pear.php.net/. Release notes ------------- added possibility to create nested objects from any XML file, added 'complexType' option to XML_Unserializer, Unserializer is able to return the name of the root tag, tagname is used as classname if no other class is specified, added 'overrideOptions' option that can be used to restore the default options for a serialization, added 'keyAttribute' option to XML_Unserializer, added Todo list Package Info ------------- XML_Serializer serializes complex data structures like arrays or object as XML documents. This class helps you generating any XML document you require without the need for DOM. Furthermore this package can be used as a replacement to serialize() und unserialize() as it comes with a matching XML_Unserializer that is able to create PHP data strcutures (like arrays and objects) from XML documents, if type hints are available. If you use the XML_Unserialzer on standard XML files, it will try to guess how it has to be unserialized. In most cases it does exactly what you expect it to do. Try reading a RSS file with XML_Unserializer and you have the whole RSS file in a structured array or even a collection of objects, similar to XML_RSS.
