### Properties

### featureNS

{String} Namespace used for feature attributes. Default is “http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/mapserver”.

### featurePrefix

{String} Namespace alias (or prefix) for feature nodes. Default is “feature”.

### featureName

{String} Element name for features. Default is “featureMember”.

### layerName

{String} Name of data layer. Default is “features”.

### geometryName

{String} Name of geometry element. Defaults to “geometry”.

### collectionName

{String} Name of featureCollection element.

### gmlns

{String} GML Namespace.

### extractAttributes

{Boolean} Extract attributes from GML.

### xy

{Boolean} Order of the GML coordinate true:(x,y) or false:(y,x) Changing is not recommended, a new Format should be instantiated.

### Constructor

### OpenLayers. Format.GML

Create a new parser for GML.

#### Parameters

options | {Object} An optional object whose properties will be set on this instance.

### Functions

### read

> read: function( | data | )

Read data from a string, and return a list of features.

#### Parameters

data | {String} or {DOMElement} data to read/parse.

#### Returns

{Array(OpenLayers.Feature.Vector)} An array of features.

### write

> write: function( | features | )

Generate a GML document string given a list of features.

#### Parameters

features | {Array(OpenLayers.Feature.Vector)} List of features to serialize into a string.

#### Returns

{String} A string representing the GML document.

### buildGeometryNode

> buildGeometryNode: function( | geometry | )

> read: function( | data | )

Read data from a string, and return a list of features.

> write: function( | features | )

Generate a GML document string given a list of features.

> buildGeometryNode: function( | geometry | )

Create a new parser for GML.
Base class for format reading/writing a variety of formats.
Vector features use the OpenLayers.Geometry classes as geometry description.
