Excellent module for quickly turning an arrayref/hashref combo data struct into XML or vice versa. Also, with no crazy dependencies I can actually use this on Window boxes as well as all of the linux / mac osx boxes I have. I expect to be using this in an upcoming project, having to deal with the output of a PowerShell data object as an XML file.
The only 'gotcha' that I want to point out, is that the path method is not an xpath parser and you shouldn't include the root tag when specifying a node path. But, once that's down, it becomes extremely easy to create subnode's and turn those subnodes into simplified structs that Perl can deal with natively.

Very simple to install and use--MyXML requires no additional compiled programs, unlike other XML parsers.
Uses tree-like objects which make a great deal more sense to me than streams.
The author is also extremely responsive and helpful--thanks again!

The comparison between this and XML::LibXML is unfair, mostly to libxml. This is as it says "A simple-to-use XML module, for parsing and creating XML documents", exactly what libxml is not. The module just slurps in the xml file into memory in one line in a useable form and there it is your done. That task given to libxml involves quite a bit more to say the least.
That said it is young, "tidy_xml('cfg.xml',{file=>1});" might be a syntax clarification a first time user would need for example.

Easy to use for small xml files if you do not need the overhead of a heavy xml parser. And a very fast help of the creator.

XML::Simple and XML::LibXML are far more mature than this module and seem to do the same job.
