Parser Handlers
-
class orcus::sax_handler
Public Functions
-
inline void doctype(const orcus::sax::doctype_declaration ¶m)
Called when a doctype declaration <!DOCTYPE … > is encountered.
- Parameters:
param – struct containing doctype declaration data.
-
inline void start_declaration(const orcus::pstring &decl)
Called when <?… is encountered, where the ‘…’ may be an arbitraray dentifier. One common declaration is <?xml which is typically given at the start of an XML stream.
- Parameters:
decl – name of the identifier.
-
inline void end_declaration(const orcus::pstring &decl)
Called when the closing tag (>) of a <?… ?> is encountered.
- Parameters:
decl – name of the identifier.
-
inline void start_element(const orcus::sax::parser_element &elem)
Called at the start of each element.
- Parameters:
elem – information of the element being parsed.
-
inline void end_element(const orcus::sax::parser_element &elem)
Called at the end of each element.
- Parameters:
elem – information of the element being parsed.
-
inline void characters(const orcus::pstring &val, bool transient)
Called when a segment of a text content is parsed. Each text content is a direct child of an element, which may have multiple child contents when the element also has a child element that are direct sibling to the text contents or the text contents are splitted by a comment.
- Parameters:
val – value of the text content.
transient – when true, the text content has been converted and is stored in a temporary buffer due to presence of one or more encoded characters, in which case the passed text value needs to be either immediately converted to a non-text value or be interned within the scope of the callback.
-
inline void attribute(const orcus::sax::parser_attribute &attr)
Called upon parsing of an attribute of an element. Note that when the attribute’s transient flag is set, the attribute value is stored in a temporary buffer due to presence of one or more encoded characters, and must be processed within the scope of the callback.
- Parameters:
attr – struct containing attribute information.
-
inline void doctype(const orcus::sax::doctype_declaration ¶m)
-
class orcus::sax_ns_handler
-
class orcus::sax_token_handler
Public Functions
-
inline void declaration(const orcus::xml_declaration_t &decl)
Called immediately after the entire XML declaration has been parsed.
- Parameters:
decl – struct containing the attributes of the XML declaration.
-
inline void start_element(const orcus::xml_token_element_t &elem)
Called at the start of each element.
- Parameters:
elem – struct containing the element’s information as well as all the attributes that belong to the element.
-
inline void end_element(const orcus::xml_token_element_t &elem)
Called at the end of each element.
- Parameters:
elem – struct containing the element’s information as well as all the attributes that belong to the element.
-
inline void characters(const orcus::pstring &val, bool transient)
Called when a segment of a text content is parsed. Each text content is a direct child of an element, which may have multiple child contents when the element also has a child element that are direct sibling to the text contents or the text contents are splitted by a comment.
- Parameters:
val – value of the text content.
transient – when true, the text content has been converted and is stored in a temporary buffer due to presence of one or more encoded characters, in which case the passed text value needs to be either immediately converted to a non-text value or be interned within the scope of the callback.
-
inline void declaration(const orcus::xml_declaration_t &decl)
Namespace
-
class orcus::xmlns_repository
Central XML namespace repository that stores all namespaces that are used in the current session.
Public Functions
-
xmlns_repository()
-
~xmlns_repository()
-
void add_predefined_values(const xmlns_id_t *predefined_ns)
Add a set of predefined namespace values to the repository.
- Parameters:
predefined_ns – predefined set of namespace values. This is a null-terminated array of xmlns_id_t. This xmlns_repository instance will assume that the instances of these xmlns_id_t values will be available throughout its life cycle; caller needs to ensure that they won’t get deleted before the corresponding xmlns_repository instance is deleted.
-
xmlns_context create_context()
-
xmlns_id_t get_identifier(size_t index) const
Get XML namespace identifier from its numerical index.
- Parameters:
index – numeric index of namespace.
- Returns:
valid namespace identifier, or XMLNS_UNKNOWN_ID if not found.
-
std::string get_short_name(xmlns_id_t ns_id) const
-
std::string get_short_name(size_t index) const
-
xmlns_repository()
-
class orcus::xmlns_context
XML namespace context. A new context should be used for each xml stream since the namespace keys themselves are not interned. Don’t hold an instance of this class any longer than the life cycle of the xml stream it is used in.
An empty key value is associated with a default namespace.
Public Functions
-
xmlns_context(const xmlns_context &r)
-
~xmlns_context()
-
xmlns_id_t push(const pstring &key, const pstring &uri)
-
xmlns_id_t get(const pstring &key) const
Get the currnet namespace identifier for a specified namespace alias.
- Parameters:
key – namespace alias to get the current namespace identifier for.
- Returns:
current namespace identifier associated with the alias.
-
size_t get_index(xmlns_id_t ns_id) const
Get a unique index value associated with a specified identifier. An index value is guaranteed to be unique regardless of contexts.
- Parameters:
ns_id – a namespace identifier to obtain index for.
- Returns:
index value associated with the identifier.
-
std::string get_short_name(xmlns_id_t ns_id) const
Get a ‘short’ name associated with a specified identifier. A short name is a string value conveniently short enough for display purposes, but still guaranteed to be unique to the identifier it is associated with.
Note that the xmlns_repository class has method of the same name, and that method works identically to this method.
- Parameters:
ns_id – a namespace identifier to obtain short name for.
- Returns:
short name for the specified identifier.
-
pstring get_alias(xmlns_id_t ns_id) const
Get an alias currently associated with a given namespace identifier.
- Parameters:
ns_id – namespace identifier.
- Returns:
alias name currently associted with the given namespace identifier, or an empty string if the given namespace is currently not associated with any aliases.
-
std::vector<xmlns_id_t> get_all_namespaces() const
-
void dump(std::ostream &os) const
