|
|
* Basic interface for resolving entities.
|
|
*
|
|
* <p>If a SAX application needs to implement customized handling
|
|
* for external entities, it must implement this interface and
|
|
* register an instance with the SAX driver using the
|
|
* {@link basic_XMLReader#setEntityResolver setEntityResolver}
|
|
* method.</p>
|
|
*
|
|
* <p>The XML reader will then allow the application to intercept any
|
|
* external entities (including the external DTD subset and external
|
|
* parameter entities, if any) before including them.</p>
|
|
*
|
|
* <p>Many SAX applications will not need to implement this interface,
|
|
* but it will be especially useful for applications that build
|
|
* XML documents from databases or other specialised input sources,
|
|
* or for applications that use URI types other than URLs.</p>
|
|
*
|
|
* <p>The following resolver would provide the application
|
|
* with a special character stream for the entity with the system
|
|
* identifier "http://www.myhost.com/today":</p>
|
|
*
|
|
* <pre>

* #include <EntityResolver>

* public class MyResolver implements SAX::EntityResolver
|
|
* {
|
|
* public InputSource resolveEntity (const std::string& publicId, const std::string& systemId)
|
|
* {
|
|
* if(systemId == "http://www.myhost.com/today")
|
|
* {
|
|
* // return a special input source
|
|
* MyReader reader = new MyReader();
|
|
* return SAX::InputSource(reader);
|
|
* } else {
|
|
* // request default behaviour
|
|
* return SAX::InputSource();
|
|
* }
|
|
* }
|
|
* }
|
|
* </pre>
|
|
*
|
|
* <p>The application can also use this interface to redirect system
|
|
* identifiers to local URIs or to look up replacements in a catalog
|
|
* (possibly by using the public identifier).</p>
