So: node1 = XML::Node.new('foo') node1 << 'bar'would produce '<foo>bar</foo>' and not '<foo/>bar'. However: node2 = XML::Node.new('bar') node1 << node2 should produce '<foo><bar/></foo>'.If the argument to << is a string, append to the xmlNode->content via xmlNodeAddContent(3). If, however, the argument is an XML::Node, then use xmlAddChild(3) to add an xmlNode->child node.+ and << should behave differently: 'node1 + node2' should produce '<foo/><bar/>'
Yes, that is how it currently works. Note if you do this:
node1 = XML::Node.new('foo')
node1 << '<bar/>'
You get this:
<foo><bar/></foo>
Which seems fine to me.
However, that doesn't really help with this issue:
node = XML::Node.new('foo') << XML::Node.new('bar') << XML::Node.new('baz')
If << returns self, then you get:
'<foo><bar/><baz/></foo>' where node points to foo
If << returns the appended child, then:
'<foo><bar><baz/></bar></foo>' where node points to baz. Its the
pointing to baz bit I don't like.
