◆ getErrorHandler()

ErrorHandler javolution.xml.sax.XMLReader.getErrorHandler ( )

Return the current error handler.

Returns: The current error handler, or null if none has been registered.

See also: setErrorHandler

Implemented in javolution.xml.sax.XMLReaderImpl, and javolution.xml.sax.SAX2ReaderImpl.

◆ getFeature()

boolean javolution.xml.sax.XMLReader.getFeature ( String name ) throws SAXNotRecognizedException, SAXNotSupportedException

Look up the value of a feature flag.

The feature name is any fully-qualified URI. It is possible for an XMLReader to recognize a feature name but temporarily be unable to return its value. Some feature values may be available only in specific contexts, such as before, during, or after a parse. Also, some feature values may not be programmatically accessible. (In the case of an adapter for SAX1 org.xml.sax.Parser, there is no implementation-independent way to expose whether the underlying parser is performing validation, expanding external entities, and so forth.)

All XMLReaders are required to recognize the http://xml.org/sax/features/namespaces and the http://xml.org/sax/features/namespace-prefixes feature names.

Typical usage is something like this:

XMLReader r = new MySAXDriver();

                        // try to activate validation
try {
  r.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/validation", true);
} catch (SAXException e) {
  System.err.println("Cannot activate validation."); 
}

                        // register event handlers
r.setContentHandler(new MyContentHandler());
r.setErrorHandler(new MyErrorHandler());

                        // parse the first document
try {
  r.parse("http://www.foo.com/mydoc.xml");
} catch (IOException e) {
  System.err.println("I/O exception reading XML document");
} catch (SAXException e) {
  System.err.println("XML exception reading document.");
}

Implementors are free (and encouraged) to invent their own features, using names built on their own URIs.

Parameters

name	The feature name, which is a fully-qualified URI.

Returns: The current value of the feature (true or false).

Exceptions

org.xml.sax.SAXNotRecognizedException	If the feature value can't be assigned or retrieved.
org.xml.sax.SAXNotSupportedException	When the XMLReader recognizes the feature name but cannot determine its value at this time.

See also: setFeature

Implemented in javolution.xml.sax.XMLReaderImpl, and javolution.xml.sax.SAX2ReaderImpl.

◆ getProperty()

Object javolution.xml.sax.XMLReader.getProperty ( String name ) throws SAXNotRecognizedException, SAXNotSupportedException

Look up the value of a property.

The property name is any fully-qualified URI. It is possible for an XMLReader to recognize a property name but temporarily be unable to return its value. Some property values may be available only in specific contexts, such as before, during, or after a parse.

XMLReaders are not required to recognize any specific property names, though an initial core set is documented for SAX2.

Implementors are free (and encouraged) to invent their own properties, using names built on their own URIs.

Parameters

name	The property name, which is a fully-qualified URI.

Returns: The current value of the property.

Exceptions

org.xml.sax.SAXNotRecognizedException	If the property value can't be assigned or retrieved.
org.xml.sax.SAXNotSupportedException	When the XMLReader recognizes the property name but cannot determine its value at this time.

See also: setProperty

Implemented in javolution.xml.sax.XMLReaderImpl, and javolution.xml.sax.SAX2ReaderImpl.

◆ parse() [1/2]

void javolution.xml.sax.XMLReader.parse ( InputSource input ) throws IOException, SAXException

Parse an XML document.

The application can use this method to instruct the XML reader to begin parsing an XML document from any valid input source (a character stream, a byte stream, or a URI).

Applications may not invoke this method while a parse is in progress (they should create a new XMLReader instead for each nested XML document). Once a parse is complete, an application may reuse the same XMLReader object, possibly with a different input source. Configuration of the XMLReader object (such as handler bindings and values established for feature flags and properties) is unchanged by completion of a parse, unless the definition of that aspect of the configuration explicitly specifies other behavior. (For example, feature flags or properties exposing characteristics of the document being parsed.)

During the parse, the XMLReader will provide information about the XML document through the registered event handlers.

This method is synchronous: it will not return until parsing has ended. If a client application wants to terminate parsing early, it should throw an exception.

Parameters

input The input source for the top-level of the XML document.

Exceptions

org.xml.sax.SAXException	Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.
j2me.io.IOException	An IO exception from the parser, possibly from a byte stream or character stream supplied by the application.

See also: org.xml.sax.InputSource; setEntityResolver; setDTDHandler; setContentHandler; setErrorHandler

Implemented in javolution.xml.sax.XMLReaderImpl, and javolution.xml.sax.SAX2ReaderImpl.

◆ parse() [2/2]

void javolution.xml.sax.XMLReader.parse ( String systemId ) throws IOException, SAXException

Parse an XML document from a system identifier (URI).

This method is a shortcut for the common case of reading a document from a system identifier. It is the exact equivalent of the following:

parse(new InputSource(systemId));

If the system identifier is a URL, it must be fully resolved by the application before it is passed to the parser.

Parameters

systemId The system identifier (URI).

Exceptions

org.xml.sax.SAXException	Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.
j2me.io.IOException	An IO exception from the parser, possibly from a byte stream or character stream supplied by the application.

See also: parse(org.xml.sax.InputSource)

Implemented in javolution.xml.sax.XMLReaderImpl, and javolution.xml.sax.SAX2ReaderImpl.

◆ setContentHandler()

void javolution.xml.sax.XMLReader.setContentHandler ( ContentHandler handler )

Allow an application to register a content event handler.

If the application does not register a content handler, all content events reported by the SAX parser will be silently ignored.

Applications may register a new or different handler in the middle of a parse, and the SAX parser must begin using the new handler immediately.

Parameters

handler The content handler.

See also: getContentHandler

Implemented in javolution.xml.sax.XMLReaderImpl, and javolution.xml.sax.SAX2ReaderImpl.

◆ setDTDHandler()

void javolution.xml.sax.XMLReader.setDTDHandler ( DTDHandler handler )

Allow an application to register a DTD event handler.

If the application does not register a DTD handler, all DTD events reported by the SAX parser will be silently ignored.

Applications may register a new or different handler in the middle of a parse, and the SAX parser must begin using the new handler immediately.

Parameters

handler The DTD handler.

See also: getDTDHandler

Implemented in javolution.xml.sax.XMLReaderImpl, and javolution.xml.sax.SAX2ReaderImpl.

◆ setEntityResolver()

void javolution.xml.sax.XMLReader.setEntityResolver ( EntityResolver resolver )

Allow an application to register an entity resolver.

If the application does not register an entity resolver, the XMLReader will perform its own default resolution.

Applications may register a new or different resolver in the middle of a parse, and the SAX parser must begin using the new resolver immediately.

Parameters

resolver The entity resolver.

See also: getEntityResolver

Implemented in javolution.xml.sax.XMLReaderImpl, and javolution.xml.sax.SAX2ReaderImpl.

◆ setErrorHandler()

void javolution.xml.sax.XMLReader.setErrorHandler ( ErrorHandler handler )

Allow an application to register an error event handler.

If the application does not register an error handler, all error events reported by the SAX parser will be silently ignored; however, normal processing may not continue. It is highly recommended that all SAX applications implement an error handler to avoid unexpected bugs.

Applications may register a new or different handler in the middle of a parse, and the SAX parser must begin using the new handler immediately.

Parameters

handler The error handler.

See also: getErrorHandler

Implemented in javolution.xml.sax.XMLReaderImpl, and javolution.xml.sax.SAX2ReaderImpl.

◆ setFeature()

void javolution.xml.sax.XMLReader.setFeature	(	String	name,
		boolean	value
	)		throws SAXNotRecognizedException, SAXNotSupportedException

Set the value of a feature flag.

The feature name is any fully-qualified URI. It is possible for an XMLReader to expose a feature value but to be unable to change the current value. Some feature values may be immutable or mutable only in specific contexts, such as before, during, or after a parse.

All XMLReaders are required to support setting http://xml.org/sax/features/namespaces to true and http://xml.org/sax/features/namespace-prefixes to false.

Parameters

name	The feature name, which is a fully-qualified URI.
value	The requested value of the feature (true or false).

Exceptions

org.xml.sax.SAXNotRecognizedException	If the feature value can't be assigned or retrieved.
org.xml.sax.SAXNotSupportedException	When the XMLReader recognizes the feature name but cannot set the requested value.

See also: getFeature

Implemented in javolution.xml.sax.XMLReaderImpl, and javolution.xml.sax.SAX2ReaderImpl.

◆ setProperty()

void javolution.xml.sax.XMLReader.setProperty	(	String	name,
		Object	value
	)		throws SAXNotRecognizedException, SAXNotSupportedException

Set the value of a property.

The property name is any fully-qualified URI. It is possible for an XMLReader to recognize a property name but to be unable to change the current value. Some property values may be immutable or mutable only in specific contexts, such as before, during, or after a parse.

XMLReaders are not required to recognize setting any specific property names, though a core set is defined by SAX2.

This method is also the standard mechanism for setting extended handlers.

Parameters

name	The property name, which is a fully-qualified URI.
value	The requested value for the property.

Exceptions

org.xml.sax.SAXNotRecognizedException	If the property value can't be assigned or retrieved.
org.xml.sax.SAXNotSupportedException	When the XMLReader recognizes the property name but cannot set the requested value.

Implemented in javolution.xml.sax.XMLReaderImpl, and javolution.xml.sax.SAX2ReaderImpl.
