Class SAX2ReaderImpl

java.lang.Object

javolution.xml.sax.SAX2ReaderImpl

All Implemented Interfaces:

Reusable, XMLReader

public final class SAX2ReaderImpl
extends java.lang.Object
implements XMLReader, Reusable

This class provides a SAX2-compliant parser wrapping a XMLReaderImpl. This parser allocates java.lang.String instances while parsing in accordance with the SAX2 specification. For faster performance (2-5x), the use of the SAX2-like XMLSaxParserImpl or betterXMLStreamReader is recommended.

Method Detail

getFeature

public boolean getFeature(java.lang.String name)
                   throws SAXNotRecognizedException,
                          SAXNotSupportedException

Description copied from interface: XMLReader

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 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.

Specified by:

getFeature in interface XMLReader

Parameters:

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

Returns:

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

Throws:

SAXNotRecognizedException - If the feature value can't be assigned or retrieved.

SAXNotSupportedException - When the XMLReader recognizes the feature name but cannot determine its value at this time.

setFeature

public void setFeature(java.lang.String name,
                       boolean value)
                throws SAXNotRecognizedException,
                       SAXNotSupportedException

Description copied from interface: XMLReader

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.

Specified by:

setFeature in interface XMLReader

Parameters:

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

value - The requested value of the feature (true or false).

Throws:

SAXNotRecognizedException - If the feature value can't be assigned or retrieved.

SAXNotSupportedException - When the XMLReader recognizes the feature name but cannot set the requested value.

getProperty

public java.lang.Object getProperty(java.lang.String name)
                             throws SAXNotRecognizedException,
                                    SAXNotSupportedException

Description copied from interface: XMLReader

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.

Specified by:

getProperty in interface XMLReader

Parameters:

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

Returns:

The current value of the property.

Throws:

SAXNotRecognizedException - If the property value can't be assigned or retrieved.

SAXNotSupportedException - When the XMLReader recognizes the property name but cannot determine its value at this time.

setProperty

public void setProperty(java.lang.String name,
                        java.lang.Object value)
                 throws SAXNotRecognizedException,
                        SAXNotSupportedException

Description copied from interface: XMLReader

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.

Specified by:

setProperty in interface XMLReader

Parameters:

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

value - The requested value for the property.

Throws:

SAXNotRecognizedException - If the property value can't be assigned or retrieved.

SAXNotSupportedException - When the XMLReader recognizes the property name but cannot set the requested value.

setEntityResolver

public void setEntityResolver(EntityResolver resolver)

Description copied from interface: XMLReader

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.

Specified by:

setEntityResolver in interface XMLReader

Parameters:

resolver - The entity resolver.

See Also:

XMLReader.getEntityResolver()

getEntityResolver

public EntityResolver getEntityResolver()

Description copied from interface: XMLReader

Return the current entity resolver.

Specified by:

getEntityResolver in interface XMLReader

Returns:

The current entity resolver, or null if none has been registered.

See Also:

XMLReader.setEntityResolver(org.xml.sax.EntityResolver)

setDTDHandler

public void setDTDHandler(DTDHandler handler)

Description copied from interface: XMLReader

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.

Specified by:

setDTDHandler in interface XMLReader

Parameters:

handler - The DTD handler.

See Also:

XMLReader.getDTDHandler()

getDTDHandler

public DTDHandler getDTDHandler()

Description copied from interface: XMLReader

Return the current DTD handler.

Specified by:

getDTDHandler in interface XMLReader

Returns:

The current DTD handler, or null if none has been registered.

See Also:

XMLReader.setDTDHandler(org.xml.sax.DTDHandler)

setContentHandler

public void setContentHandler(ContentHandler handler)

Description copied from interface: XMLReader

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.

Specified by:

setContentHandler in interface XMLReader

Parameters:

handler - The content handler.

See Also:

XMLReader.getContentHandler()

getContentHandler

public ContentHandler getContentHandler()

Description copied from interface: XMLReader

Return the current content handler.

Specified by:

getContentHandler in interface XMLReader

Returns:

The current content handler, or null if none has been registered.

See Also:

XMLReader.setContentHandler(org.xml.sax.ContentHandler)

setErrorHandler

public void setErrorHandler(ErrorHandler handler)

Description copied from interface: XMLReader

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.

Specified by:

setErrorHandler in interface XMLReader

Parameters:

handler - The error handler.

See Also:

XMLReader.getErrorHandler()

getErrorHandler

public ErrorHandler getErrorHandler()

Description copied from interface: XMLReader

Return the current error handler.

Specified by:

getErrorHandler in interface XMLReader

Returns:

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

See Also:

XMLReader.setErrorHandler(org.xml.sax.ErrorHandler)

parse

public void parse(InputSource input)
           throws java.io.IOException,
                  SAXException

Description copied from interface: XMLReader

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.

Specified by:

parse in interface XMLReader

Parameters:

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

Throws:

java.io.IOException

SAXException - Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.

See Also:

InputSource, XMLReader.setEntityResolver(org.xml.sax.EntityResolver), XMLReader.setDTDHandler(org.xml.sax.DTDHandler), XMLReader.setContentHandler(org.xml.sax.ContentHandler), XMLReader.setErrorHandler(org.xml.sax.ErrorHandler)

parse

public void parse(java.lang.String systemId)
           throws java.io.IOException,
                  SAXException

Description copied from interface: XMLReader

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.

Specified by:

parse in interface XMLReader

Parameters:

systemId - The system identifier (URI).

Throws:

java.io.IOException

SAXException - Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.

See Also:

XMLReader.parse(org.xml.sax.InputSource)

reset

public void reset()

Description copied from interface: Reusable

Resets the internal state of this object to its default values.

Specified by:

reset in interface Reusable
