While working on project, we needed good and simple solutions for creating XML data. SimpleXML have meny limitations, and doesn't suited our needs, DOM needs lots of code for simpliest things and is uncomfortable. Using magic methods and ArrayAccess interface we created class with SimpleXML-like API, extending it with new functions and DOM methods and fields. EasyXML dosen't use lots of memory because it's created on-fly (only where some node is requested). In theory size of XML data is only limited by PHP and DOM capabilities.
