XMLReader is the interface that an XML parser's SAX2 driver must * implement. This interface allows an application to set and * query features and properties in the parser, to register * event handlers for document processing, and to initiate * a document parse.

* *

All SAX interfaces are assumed to be synchronous: the * {@link #parse parse} methods must not return until parsing * is complete, and readers must wait for an event-handler callback * to return before reporting the next event.

* *

This interface replaces the (now deprecated) SAX 1.0 {@link * Parser Parser} interface. The XMLReader interface * contains two important enhancements over the old Parser * interface:

* *
    *
  1. it adds a standard way to query and set features and * properties; and
  2. *
  3. it adds Namespace support, which is required for many * higher-level XML standards.
  4. *
* *

There are adapters available to convert a SAX1 Parser to * a SAX2 XMLReader and vice-versa.

* * @since SAX 2.0 * @author Jez Higgins, * jez@jezuk.co.uk * @version 2.0 * @see XMLFilter * @see helpers.ParserAdapter * @see helpers.XMLReaderAdapter */ class XMLReaderInterface_tag { }; template class XMLReaderInterface : public XMLReaderInterface_tag { public: typedef string_adaptor_type string_adaptor; typedef EntityResolver EntityResolverT; typedef DTDHandler DTDHandlerT; typedef ContentHandler ContentHandlerT; typedef InputSource InputSourceT; typedef ErrorHandler ErrorHandlerT; typedef DeclHandler DeclHandlerT; typedef LexicalHandler LexicalHandlerT; virtual ~XMLReaderInterface() { } ///////////////////////////////////////////////// // Configuration /** * Look up the value of a feature. * *

The feature name is any fully-qualified URI. It is * possible for an XMLReader to recognize a feature name but * to be unable to return its value; this is especially true * in the case of an adapter for a SAX1 Parser, which has * no way of knowing whether the underlying parser is * performing validation or expanding external entities.

* *

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

* *

Some feature values may be available only in specific * contexts, such as before, during, or after a parse.

* *

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.

* * @param name The feature name, which is a fully-qualified URI. * @return The current state of the feature (true or false). * @see #setFeature */ virtual bool getFeature(const string_type& name) const = 0; /** * Set the state of a feature. * *

The feature name is any fully-qualified URI.

* *

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.

* *

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.

* *

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.
