How can I save XML data to a file with XML::Simple?

I'm using XML::Simple package to import an XML file and change a few properties of some of the child tags. The change is visible when the data is dumped with: 

 print Dumper($data);

But how can I write this edited data into a new XML file? I did go through the CPAN page, but some code regarding this would really help.

Solution 
  • my $ref = XMLin(...);

# ...

open my $fh, ">", $path or die "$0: open $path: $!";
print $fh XMLout($ref);
close $fh or warn "$0: close $path: $!";
