Text.XML.Basic.Name

We provide a type class for tag and attribute names. Instances can be names that preserve case, names with lowercase letters as canonical representation.

types and classes

class Ord name => C name where

Minimal complete definition

fromString, toString

Methods

fromString :: String -> name

toString :: name -> String

Instances

Attribute ident => C (Name ident)

Methods

fromString :: String -> Name ident

toString :: Name ident -> String

Tag ident => C (Name ident)

Methods

fromString :: String -> Name ident

toString :: Name ident -> String

class Ord ident => Tag ident where

We need to distinguish between tag names and attribute names, because DOCTYPE as tag name must be written upper case, whereas as attribute name it may be written either way.
