Tree: ezcTreeXml

[ Tutorial ] [ Class tree ] [ Element index ] [ ChangeLog ] [ Credits ]

Class: ezcTreeXml

ezcTreeXml is an implementation of a tree backend that operates on an XML file. [source]
Example: 
 1.  <?php
 2.      // Create a new tree in a new XML file
 3.           $tree = ezcTreeXml::create(
 4.          'new-tree.xml',
 5.          new ezcTreeXmlInternalDataStore()
 6.      );
 7.  
 8.      // Open an existing XML file containing a tree structure
 9.           $tree = new ezcTreeXml(
10.          'existing-tree.xml',
11.          new ezcTreeXmlInternalDataStore()
12.      );
13.  ?>
See ezcTree for examples on how to operate on the tree.
