Method Details

startDocument

public void startDocument()
                   throws SAXException

Receive notification of the beginning of a document.

The SAX parser will invoke this method only once, before any other event callbacks (except for setDocumentLocator).

Specified by:

startDocument in interface ContentHandler

Overrides:

startDocument in class XMLSerializer

Throws:

SAXException - Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.

See Also:

• XMLSerializer.endDocument()

startElement

public void startElement(String uri,
 String localName,
 String qName,
 Attributes atts)
                  throws SAXException

Receive notification of the beginning of an element.

The Parser will invoke this method at the beginning of every element in the XML document; there will be a corresponding endElement event for every startElement event (even when the element is empty). All of the element's content will be reported, in order, before the corresponding endElement event.

This event allows up to three name components for each element:

1. the Namespace URI;
2. the local name; and
3. the qualified (prefixed) name.

Any or all of these may be provided, depending on the values of the http://xml.org/sax/features/namespaces and the http://xml.org/sax/features/namespace-prefixes properties:

• the Namespace URI and local name are required when the namespaces property is true (the default), and are optional when the namespaces property is false (if one is specified, both must be);
• the qualified name is required when the namespace-prefixes property is true, and is optional when the namespace-prefixes property is false (the default).

Note that the attribute list provided will contain only attributes with explicit values (specified or defaulted): #IMPLIED attributes will be omitted. The attribute list will contain attributes used for Namespace declarations (xmlns* attributes) only if the http://xml.org/sax/features/namespace-prefixes property is true (it is false by default, and support for a true value is optional).

Like characters(), attribute values may have characters that need more than one char value.

Specified by:

startElement in interface ContentHandler

Overrides:

startElement in class XMLSerializer

Parameters:

uri - The Namespace URI, or the empty string if the element has no Namespace URI or if Namespace processing is not being performed.

localName - The local name (without prefix), or the empty string if Namespace processing is not being performed.

qName - The qualified name (with prefix), or the empty string if qualified names are not available.

atts - The attributes attached to the element. If there are no attributes, it shall be an empty Attributes object.

Throws:

SAXException - Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.

• endElement(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String)
• Attributes

endElement

public void endElement(String uri,
 String localName,
 String qName)
                throws SAXException

Receive notification of the end of an element.

The SAX parser will invoke this method at the end of every element in the XML document; there will be a corresponding startElement event for every endElement event (even when the element is empty).

For information on the names, see startElement.

Specified by:

endElement in interface ContentHandler

Overrides:

endElement in class XMLSerializer

Parameters:

uri - The Namespace URI, or the empty string if the element has no Namespace URI or if Namespace processing is not being performed.

localName - The local name (without prefix), or the empty string if Namespace processing is not being performed.

qName - The qualified XML 1.0 name (with prefix), or the empty string if qualified names are not available.

Throws:

SAXException - Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.

characters

public void characters(char[] ch,
 int start,
 int length)
                throws SAXException

Receive notification of character data.

The Parser will call this method to report each chunk of character data. SAX parsers may return all contiguous character data in a single chunk, or they may split it into several chunks; however, all of the characters in any single event must come from the same external entity so that the Locator provides useful information.

The application must not attempt to read from the array outside of the specified range.

Individual characters may consist of more than one Java char value. There are two important cases where this happens, because characters can't be represented in just sixteen bits. In one case, characters are represented in a Surrogate Pair, using two special Unicode values. Such characters are in the so-called "Astral Planes", with a code point above U+FFFF. A second case involves composite characters, such as a base character combining with one or more accent characters.

Your code should not assume that algorithms using char-at-a-time idioms will be working in character units; in some cases they will split characters. This is relevant wherever XML permits arbitrary characters, such as attribute values, processing instruction data, and comments as well as in data reported from this method. It's also generally relevant whenever Java code manipulates internationalized text; the issue isn't unique to XML.

Note that some parsers will report whitespace in element content using the ignorableWhitespace method rather than this one (validating parsers must do so).

Specified by:

characters in interface ContentHandler

Overrides:

characters in class XMLSerializer

Parameters:

ch - The characters from the XML document.

start - The start position in the array.

length - The number of characters to read from the array.

Throws:

SAXException - Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.

• XMLSerializer.ignorableWhitespace(char[], int, int)
• Locator

skippedEntity

public void skippedEntity(String name)
                   throws SAXException

Receive notification of a skipped entity. This is not called for entity references within markup constructs such as element start tags or markup declarations. (The XML recommendation requires reporting skipped external entities. SAX also reports internal entity expansion/non-expansion, except within markup constructs.)

The Parser will invoke this method each time the entity is skipped. Non-validating processors may skip entities if they have not seen the declarations (because, for example, the entity was declared in an external DTD subset). All processors may skip external entities, depending on the values of the http://xml.org/sax/features/external-general-entities and the http://xml.org/sax/features/external-parameter-entities properties.

Specified by:

skippedEntity in interface ContentHandler

Overrides:

skippedEntity in class XMLSerializer

Parameters:

name - The name of the skipped entity. If it is a parameter entity, the name will begin with '%', and if it is the external DTD subset, it will be the string "[dtd]".

Throws:

SAXException - Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.

startEntity

public void startEntity(String name)
                 throws SAXException

Report the beginning of some internal and external XML entities.

The reporting of parameter entities (including the external DTD subset) is optional, and SAX2 drivers that report LexicalHandler events may not implement it; you can use the http://xml.org/sax/features/lexical-handler/parameter-entities feature to query or control the reporting of parameter entities.

General entities are reported with their regular names, parameter entities have '%' prepended to their names, and the external DTD subset has the pseudo-entity name "[dtd]".

When a SAX2 driver is providing these events, all other events must be properly nested within start/end entity events. There is no additional requirement that events from DeclHandler or DTDHandler be properly ordered.

Note that skipped entities will be reported through the skippedEntity event, which is part of the ContentHandler interface.

Because of the streaming event model that SAX uses, some entity boundaries cannot be reported under any circumstances:

• general entities within attribute values
• parameter entities within declarations

These will be silently expanded, with no indication of where the original entity boundaries were.

Note also that the boundaries of character references (which are not really entities anyway) are not reported.

All start/endEntity events must be properly nested.

Specified by:

startEntity in interface LexicalHandler

Overrides:

startEntity in class XMLSerializer

Parameters:

name - The name of the entity. If it is a parameter entity, the name will begin with '%', and if it is the external DTD subset, it will be "[dtd]".

Throws:

SAXException - The application may raise an exception.

• endEntity(java.lang.String)
• DeclHandler.internalEntityDecl(java.lang.String, java.lang.String)
• DeclHandler.externalEntityDecl(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String)

endEntity

public void endEntity(String name)
               throws SAXException

Report the end of an entity.

Specified by:

endEntity in interface LexicalHandler

Overrides:

endEntity in class XMLSerializer

Parameters:

name - The name of the entity that is ending.

Throws:

• startEntity(java.lang.String)

startCDATA

public void startCDATA()
                throws SAXException

The contents of the CDATA section will be reported through the regular characters event; this event is intended only to report the boundary.

Specified by:

startCDATA in interface LexicalHandler

Overrides:
