virtual ~XMLStream ()

This class impliments a basic XML stream parser that can be used to examine an XML resource thru virtual I/O methods.

This class must be derived into one that can impliment the physical I/O required to parse actual data. A mixer class using XMLStream and URLStream would seem a likely combination for this purpose.

virtual ost::XMLStream::~XMLStream ()\fC [protected]\fP, \fC [virtual]\fP

virtual void ost::XMLStream::characters (const unsigned char *text, size_tlen)\fC [pure virtual]\fP

Virtual to receive character text extracted from the document in the current element.

Parameters:

text received.

len length of text received.

virtual void ost::XMLStream::close (void)\fC [virtual]\fP

May perform a close operation of an i/o source when the parser has completed operation.

virtual void ost::XMLStream::comment (const unsigned char *text, size_tlen)\fC [virtual]\fP

Virtual to receive embedded comments in an XML document being parsed.

Parameters:

text text comment extracted.

len length of comment.

virtual void ost::XMLStream::endDocument (void)\fC [virtual]\fP

Identify end of document event.

virtual void ost::XMLStream::endElement (const unsigned char *name)\fC [pure virtual]\fP

Identify end of an element in the document.

Parameters:

name of element found.

virtual \fBSlog::Level\fP ost::XMLStream::getLogging (void)\fC [virtual]\fP

Get error logging level.

Returns:

error logging level.

virtual bool ost::XMLStream::open (const char *resource)\fC [virtual]\fP

May perform an open operation on behalf of a parsed resource. In some cases, the parser may be merged with a class that already has performed some kind of open, and this method can then be ignored.

Returns:

true if open is successful.

Parameters:

resource passed to Parse methods.

bool ost::XMLStream::parse (const char *resource = \fCNULL\fP)

Parse a resource as a stream thru the virtual read method.

Returns:

true if well formed document has been fully parsed.

Parameters:

resource optional name of resource.

virtual int ost::XMLStream::read (unsigned char *buffer, size_tlen)\fC [pure virtual]\fP

Read method to aquire data for the parser.

Returns:

number of bytes actually read.

Parameters:

buffer to read data into.

len number of bytes to read.

virtual void ost::XMLStream::startDocument (void)\fC [virtual]\fP

Identify start of document event.

virtual void ost::XMLStream::startElement (const unsigned char *name, const unsigned char **attr)\fC [pure virtual]\fP

Identify start of an element in the document.

Parameters:

name of element found.

attr list of attributes extracted.
