This class implements support for xml currencies files, usually provided by central banks. It's a general class, who must be extended with particulary classes (e.g. BNR_reader.class), fitting your needs.

There is a sub-class that extends the base class to retrieve currency data specifically from XML files provided by the National Bank of Romania.
