Input: The XML string to be parsed Output: A perl hash structure that contains the converted string or an empty hash if there is no string provided or the XML parser fails =cut sub translate_msg{ my $xml_msg = shift; my $fname = 'translate_msg'; if( !defined($xml_msg) ){ $error_code{$fname} = NO_MESSAGE_CODE; $error_msg{$fname} = NO_MESSAGE_MSG; return {}; } #Reset the state variables %$xml_hashref = (); $raw_xml = ''; #Store the XML message $raw_xml = $xml_msg; #Instantiates a new LibXML::Simple object my $xml = new XML::LibXML::Simple; #XMLin converts the XML to a nested hash #the ForceArray option forces the listed tags to be represented #as arrays so that the user can iterate through them my $data = (); eval{ $data = $xml->XMLin("$xml_msg",ForceArray => ['PREFIX','ATTRIBUTE','AS_SEG','AS'], KeepRoot => 1 , ForceContent => 1); $data->{'raw'} = $raw_xml; #Saves the raw XML in the hash structure $xml_hashref = $data; return $xml_hashref; } or do { $error_code{$fname} = PARSER_ERROR_CODE; $error_msg{$fname} = PARSER_ERROR_MSG .

Input: A slash-delimited string which gives the path through the message tree structure, i.e. "/ROOT_TAG/NEXT_TAG/attribute_name" NOTE: To get the text contents of an element, specify "/content" as the final "node" in the target string.
