virtual void ContentHandler::characters	(	const char *	text,
		int4	start,
		int4	length
	)

pure virtual

Callback with raw characters to be inserted in the current XML element.

Parameters

text	is an array of character data being inserted.
start	is the first character within the array to insert.
length	is the number of characters to insert.

Implemented in TreeHandler.

virtual void ContentHandler::endElement	(	const string &	namespaceURI,
		const string &	localName,
		const string &	qualifiedName
	)

pure virtual

Callback indicating parsing of the current XML element is finished.

Parameters

namespaceURI	is the namespace to which the element belongs
localName	is the local name of the new element
qualifiedName	is the fully qualified name of the element.

Implemented in TreeHandler.

virtual void ContentHandler::ignorableWhitespace	(	const char *	text,
		int4	start,
		int4	length
	)

pure virtual

Callback with whitespace character data for the current XML element.

Parameters

text	is an array of character data that can be inserted.
start	is the first character within the array to insert.
length	is the number of characters to insert.

Implemented in TreeHandler.

virtual void ContentHandler::processingInstruction	(	const string &	target,
		const string &	data

pure virtual

Callback for a formal processing instruction seen in the current document.

Parameters

target	is the target instruction to process
data	is (optional) character data for the instruction

Implemented in TreeHandler.

virtual void ContentHandler::setEncoding ( const string & encoding )

pure virtual

Set the character encoding as specified by the current document.

Parameters

encoding is the parsed encoding string

virtual void ContentHandler::setError ( const string & errmsg )

pure virtual

Callback for handling an error condition during XML parsing.

Parameters

errmsg is a message describing the error condition

Implemented in TreeHandler.

pure virtual

Set the XML version as specified by the current document.

Parameters

version is the parsed version string

Implemented in TreeHandler.

virtual void ContentHandler::skippedEntity ( const string & name )

pure virtual

Callback for an XML entity skipped by the parser.

Parameters

name	is the name of the entity being skipped

Implemented in TreeHandler.

virtual void ContentHandler::startElement	(	const string &	namespaceURI,
		const string &	localName,
		const string &	qualifiedName,
		const Attributes &	atts
	)

pure virtual

Callback indicating a new XML element has started.

Parameters

namespaceURI	is the namespace to which the new element belongs
localName	is the local name of the new element
qualifiedName	is the fully qualified name of the new element
atts	is the set of (previously parsed) attributes to attach to the new element

Implemented in TreeHandler.
