Class JXDocumentBuilder

public class JXDocumentBuilder

extends DocumentBuilder

Defines the API to obtain DOM Document instances from an XML document. Using this class, an application programmer can obtain a org.w3c.dom.Document from XML.

An instance of this class can be obtained from the DocumentBuilderFactory.newDocumentBuilder method. Once an instance of this class is obtained, XML can be parsed from a variety of input sources. These input sources are InputStreams, Files, URLs, and SAX InputSources.

Note that this class reuses several classes from the SAX API. This does not require that the implementor of the underlying DOM implmenetation use a SAX parser to parse XML document into a Document. It merely requires that the implementation communicate with the application using these existing APIs.

Since:

JAXP 1.0

Method Summary

DOMImplementation	getDOMImplementation() The DOMImplementation object that handles this document.
boolean	isNamespaceAware() Indicates whether or not this parser is configured to understand namespaces.
boolean	isValidating() Indicates whether or not this parser is configured to validate XML documents.
Document	newDocument() Obtain a new instance of a DOM Document object to build a DOM tree with.
Document	parse(InputSource is) Parse the content of the given input source as an XML document and return a new DOM Document object.
Document	parse(java.io.InputStream is) Parse the content of the given InputStream as an XML document and return a new DOM Document object.
Document	parse(java.io.InputStream is, java.lang.String systemId) Parse the content of the given InputStream as an XML document and return a new DOM Document object.
void	setEntityResolver(EntityResolver er) Specify the EntityResolver to be used to resolve entities present in the XML document to be parsed.
void	setErrorHandler(ErrorHandler eh) Specify the ErrorHandler to be used to resolve entities present in the XML document to be parsed.

Method Detail

parse

public Document parse(java.io.InputStream is)
               throws SAXException,
                      java.io.IOException

Parse the content of the given InputStream as an XML document and return a new DOM Document object.

Overrides:

parse in class DocumentBuilder

Parameters:

is - InputStream containing the content to be parsed.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - If any IO errors occur.

SAXException - If any parse errors occur.

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - If the InputStream is null

DocumentHandler

parse

public Document parse(java.io.InputStream is,
                      java.lang.String systemId)
               throws SAXException,
                      java.io.IOException

Parse the content of the given InputStream as an XML document and return a new DOM Document object.

Overrides:

parse in class DocumentBuilder

Parameters:

is - InputStream containing the content to be parsed.

systemId - Provide a base for resolving relative URIs.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - If any IO errors occur.

SAXException - If any parse errors occur.

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - If the InputStream is null

DocumentHandler

parse

public Document parse(InputSource is)
               throws SAXException,
                      java.io.IOException

Parse the content of the given input source as an XML document and return a new DOM Document object.

Specified by:

parse in class DocumentBuilder

Parameters:

is - InputSource containing the content to be parsed.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - If any IO errors occur.

SAXException - If any parse errors occur.

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - If the InputSource is null

isNamespaceAware

public boolean isNamespaceAware()

Indicates whether or not this parser is configured to understand namespaces.

Specified by:

isNamespaceAware in class DocumentBuilder

isValidating

public boolean isValidating()

Indicates whether or not this parser is configured to validate XML documents.

Specified by:

isValidating in class DocumentBuilder

setEntityResolver

public void setEntityResolver(EntityResolver er)

Specify the EntityResolver to be used to resolve entities present in the XML document to be parsed. Setting this to null will result in the underlying implementation using it's own default implementation and behavior.

Specified by:

setEntityResolver in class DocumentBuilder

setErrorHandler

public void setErrorHandler(ErrorHandler eh)

Specify the ErrorHandler to be used to resolve entities present in the XML document to be parsed. Setting this to null will result in the underlying implementation using it's own default implementation and behavior.

Specified by:

setErrorHandler in class DocumentBuilder

newDocument

public Document newDocument()

Obtain a new instance of a DOM Document object to build a DOM tree with.

Specified by:

newDocument in class DocumentBuilder

getDOMImplementation

public DOMImplementation getDOMImplementation()

The DOMImplementation object that handles this document. A DOM application may use objects from multiple implementations.

Specified by:

getDOMImplementation in class DocumentBuilder

Returns:

The associated DOM implementation.
