in reply to XML::Simple read only mode

If you don't trust XML::Simple, open the file yourself and give the module just the string:
open my $READ, '<', './config.xml' or die $!; my $parser = 'XML::Simple'->new; my $doc = $parser->XMLin(do { local $/; <$READ> }, ForceArray => qr/Re +source/, KeyAttr => { ser +ver => 'name' }, KeepRoot => 1); # + I fixed the options.
