                          Augmentations augs)
                   throws XNIException

The start of the document.

Specified by:

startDocument in interface XMLDocumentHandler

Overrides:

                               Augmentations augs)
                        throws XNIException

This method notifies of the start of an entity. The DTD has the pseudo-name of "[dtd]" parameter entity names start with '%'; and general entity names are just the entity name.

Note: Since the document is an entity, the handler will be notified of the start of the document entity by calling the startEntity method with the entity name "[xml]" before calling the startDocument method. When exposing entity boundaries through the SAX API, the document entity is never reported, however.

Note: This method is not called for entity references appearing as part of attribute values.

Specified by:

startGeneralEntity in interface XMLDocumentHandler

Overrides:

startGeneralEntity in class AbstractXMLDocumentParser

Parameters:

name - The name of the entity.

identifier - The resource identifier.

encoding - The auto-detected IANA encoding name of the entity stream. This value will be null in those situations where the entity encoding is not auto-detected (e.g. internal parameter entities).

augs - Additional information that may include infoset augmentations

Throws:

XNIException - Thrown by handler to signal an error.

endGeneralEntity

public void endGeneralEntity(java.lang.String name,
                             Augmentations augs)
                      throws XNIException

This method notifies the end of an entity. The DTD has the pseudo-name of "[dtd]" parameter entity names start with '%'; and general entity names are just the entity name.

Note: Since the document is an entity, the handler will be notified of the end of the document entity by calling the endEntity method with the entity name "[xml]" after calling the endDocument method. When exposing entity boundaries through the SAX API, the document entity is never reported, however.

Note: This method is not called for entity references appearing as part of attribute values.

Specified by:

endGeneralEntity in interface XMLDocumentHandler

Overrides:

endGeneralEntity in class AbstractXMLDocumentParser

Parameters:

name - The name of the entity.

augs - Additional information that may include infoset augmentations

Throws:

XNIException - Thrown by handler to signal an error.

startElement

public void startElement(QName element,
                         XMLAttributes attributes,
                         Augmentations augs)
                  throws XNIException

The start of an element. If the document specifies the start element by using an empty tag, then the startElement method will immediately be followed by the endElement method, with no intervening methods.

Specified by:

public void ignorableWhitespace(XMLString text,
                                Augmentations augs)
                         throws XNIException

Ignorable whitespace. For this method to be called, the document source must have some way of determining that the text containing only whitespace characters should be considered ignorable. For example, the validator can determine if a length of whitespace characters in the document are ignorable based on the element content model.

Specified by:

ignorableWhitespace in interface XMLDocumentHandler

setEntityResolver in interface Parser

Specified by:

setEntityResolver in interface XMLReader

Parameters:

resolver - The new entity resolver. Passing a null value will uninstall the currently installed resolver.

See Also:

EntityResolver, HandlerBase

getEntityResolver

public EntityResolver getEntityResolver()

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:

setEntityResolver(org.xml.sax.EntityResolver)

setErrorHandler

public void setErrorHandler(ErrorHandler errorHandler)

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 Parser

Specified by:

setErrorHandler in interface XMLReader

Parameters:

errorHandler - The error handler.

See Also:

getErrorHandler()

getErrorHandler

public ErrorHandler getErrorHandler()

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:

setErrorHandler(org.xml.sax.ErrorHandler)

setLocale

public void setLocale(java.util.Locale locale)
               throws SAXException

Set the locale to use for messages.

Specified by:

setLocale in interface Parser

Parameters:

locale - The locale object to use for localization of messages.

Throws:

SAXException - An exception thrown if the parser does not support the specified locale.

setDTDHandler

public void setDTDHandler(DTDHandler dtdHandler)

Allow an application to register a DTD event handler.

setDocumentHandler

public void setDocumentHandler(DocumentHandler documentHandler)

Allow an application to register a document event handler.

If the application does not register a document handler, all document events reported by the SAX parser will be silently ignored (this is the default behaviour implemented by HandlerBase).

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.

getElementPSVI

public ElementPSVI getElementPSVI()

Description copied from interface: PSVIProvider

Provides the post schema validation item for the current element information item. The method must be called by an application while in the scope of the methods which report the start and end of an element. For example, for SAX the method must be called within the scope of the document handler's startElement or endElement call. If the method is called outside of the specified scope, the return value is undefined.

Specified by:

getElementPSVI in interface PSVIProvider

Returns:

The post schema validation infoset for the current element. If an element information item is valid, then in the post-schema-validation infoset the following properties must be available for the element information item: The following properties are available in the scope of the method that reports the start of an element: {element declaration}, {validation context}, {notation}. The {schema information} property is available for the validation root. The {error codes} property is available if any errors occured during validation. The following properties are available in the scope of the method that reports the end of an element: {nil}, {schema specified}, {normalized value},{ member type definition}, {validity}, {validation attempted} . If the declaration has a value constraint, the property {schema default} is available. The {error codes} property is available if any errors occured during validation. Note: some processors may choose to provide all the PSVI properties in the scope of the method that reports the end of an element.

getAttributePSVI

public AttributePSVI getAttributePSVI(int index)

Description copied from interface: PSVIProvider

Provides AttributePSVI given the index of an attribute information item in the current element's attribute list. The method must be called by an application while in the scope of the methods which report the start and end of an element at a point where the attribute list is available.
