XML_sql2xml::XML_sql2xml

Description

The Constructor can take a Pear::DB Data Source Name (DSN) and will then connect to the database; or a PEAR::DB object handle, if you already connected the database before. Providing sql-strings will not work.

If you provide only a DSN, you have to add a DB_result object, SQL statment or an array later.

The $root parameter is used, if you want to provide another name for your root-tag than <root>. If you give an empty string (""), there will be no root element created here, but only when you add a resultset, array or SQL Statment. And the first tag of this result is used as the root tag.

Parameter

• mixed $dsn - PEAR::DB "data source name" or DB_common object

• string $root - the name of the XML-root element.

Note

This function can be called statically.
