- (id) parseXMLAtURL:	(NSURL *)	url
fromNodeName:	(NSString *)	aNodeName
toObject:	(NSString *)	aClassName
parseError:	(NSError **)	pError

Parses the XML document returned from the given URL into an array of instances of the named class.

One instance is created for each XML node that matches the given node name. The named class must define properties whose names match the child XML nodes of the named target XML nodes when converted to "camelCase", or else it must implement setValue:forUndefinedKey:.

Parameters:

	url	NSURL of the XML document to be parsed.
	aNodeName	NSString containing the name of XML nodes to be matched in the XML document.
	aClassName	NSString containing the name of an NSObject subclass that will be instantiated once for each matched XML node in the XML document.
	pError	Output parameter pointing to an NSError object on return if any errors occur while loading and parsing the XML document. Pass nil to ignore errors.

Returns:: id of the XMLToObjectParser.

- (id) parseXMLData:	(NSData *)	data
fromNodeName:	(NSString *)	aNodeName
toObject:	(NSString *)	aClassName
parseError:	(NSError **)	pError

Parses the XML contained in the given data object into an array of instances of the named class.

One instance is created for each XML node that matches the given node name. The named class must define properties whose names match the child XML nodes of the named target XML nodes when converted to "camelCase", or else it must implement setValue:forUndefinedKey:.

Parameters:

	data	NSData object containing the XML data to be parsed.
	aNodeName	NSString containing the name of XML nodes to be matched in the XML data.
	aClassName	NSString containing the name of an NSObject subclass that will be instantiated once for each matched XML node in the XML data.
	pError	Output parameter pointing to an NSError object on return if any errors occur while loading and parsing the XML data. Pass nil to ignore errors.
