DESCRIPTION

This is a module for generating XML for the mapnik XML interface.

The syntax of this is described here: https://github.com/mapnik/mapnik/wiki/XMLConfigReference

The classes provided mirror the XML structure described there. Most of the work is done by XML::Class, which provides the xml rendering based on class definitions.
