javax.xml.stream
Interface XMLStreamReader

All Superinterfaces:: XMLStreamConstants

All Known Implementing Classes:: StreamReaderDelegate

public interface XMLStreamReader
extends XMLStreamConstants
extends XMLStreamConstants

The XMLStreamReader interface allows forward, read-only access to XML. It is designed to be the lowest level and most efficient way to read XML data.

The XMLStreamReader is designed to iterate over XML using next() and hasNext(). The data can be accessed using methods such as getEventType(), getNamespaceURI(), getLocalName() and getText();

The next() method causes the reader to read the next parse event. The next() method returns an integer which identifies the type of event just read.

The event type can be determined using getEventType().

Parsing events are defined as the XML Declaration, a DTD, start tag, character data, white space, end tag, comment, or processing instruction. An attribute or namespace event may be encountered at the root level of a document as the result of a query operation.

For XML 1.0 compliance an XML processor must pass the identifiers of declared unparsed entities, notation declarations and their associated identifiers to the application. This information is provided through the property API on this interface. The following two properties allow access to this information: javax.xml.stream.notations and javax.xml.stream.entities. When the current event is a DTD the following call will return a list of Notations List l = (List) getProperty("javax.xml.stream.notations"); The following call will return a list of entity declarations: List l = (List) getProperty("javax.xml.stream.entities"); These properties can only be accessed during a DTD event and are defined to return null if the information is not available.

The following table describes which methods are valid in what state. If a method is called in an invalid state the method will throw a java.lang.IllegalStateException.

Method Detail

getProperty

Object getProperty(String name)
                   throws IllegalArgumentException

Get the value of a feature/property from the underlying implementation

Parameters:: name - The name of the property, may not be null
Returns:: The value of the property
Throws:: IllegalArgumentException - if name is null

int next()
         throws XMLStreamException

Get next parsing event - a processor may return all contiguous character data in a single chunk, or it may split it into several chunks. If the property javax.xml.stream.isCoalescing is set to true element content must be coalesced and only one CHARACTERS event must be returned for contiguous element content or CDATA Sections. By default entity references must be expanded and reported transparently to the application. An exception will be thrown if an entity reference cannot be expanded. If element content is empty (i.e. content is "") then no CHARACTERS event will be reported.

Given the following XML:
<foo>content text<![CDATA[<greeting>Hello</greeting>]]>other content</foo>
The behavior of calling next() when being on foo will be:
1- the comment (COMMENT)
2- then the characters section (CHARACTERS)
3- then the CDATA section (another CHARACTERS)
4- then the next characters section (another CHARACTERS)
5- then the END_ELEMENT

NOTE: empty element (such as <tag/>) will be reported with two separate events: START_ELEMENT, END_ELEMENT - This preserves parsing equivalency of empty element to <tag></tag>. This method will throw an IllegalStateException if it is called after hasNext() returns false.

Returns:: the integer code corresponding to the current parse event
Throws:: NoSuchElementException - if this is called when hasNext() returns false; XMLStreamException - if there is an error processing the underlying XML source
See Also:: XMLEvent

require

void require(int type,
             String namespaceURI,
             String localName)
             throws XMLStreamException

Test if the current event is of the given type and if the namespace and name match the current namespace and name of the current event. If the namespaceURI is null it is not checked for equality, if the localName is null it is not checked for equality.

Parameters:: type - the event type; namespaceURI - the uri of the event, may be null; localName - the localName of the event, may be null
Throws:: XMLStreamException - if the required values are not matched.

getElementText

String getElementText()
                      throws XMLStreamException

Reads the content of a text-only element, an exception is thrown if this is not a text-only element. Regardless of value of javax.xml.stream.isCoalescing this method always returns coalesced content.
Precondition: the current event is START_ELEMENT.
Postcondition: the current event is the corresponding END_ELEMENT.
The method does the following (implementations are free to optimized but must do equivalent processing):

 if(getEventType() != XMLStreamConstants.START_ELEMENT) {
 throw new XMLStreamException(
 "parser must be on START_ELEMENT to read next text", getLocation());
 }
 int eventType = next();
 StringBuffer content = new StringBuffer();
 while(eventType != XMLStreamConstants.END_ELEMENT ) {
 if(eventType == XMLStreamConstants.CHARACTERS
 || eventType == XMLStreamConstants.CDATA
 || eventType == XMLStreamConstants.SPACE
 || eventType == XMLStreamConstants.ENTITY_REFERENCE) {
 buf.append(getText());
 } else if(eventType == XMLStreamConstants.PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION
 || eventType == XMLStreamConstants.COMMENT) {
 // skipping
 } else if(eventType == XMLStreamConstants.END_DOCUMENT) {
 throw new XMLStreamException(
 "unexpected end of document when reading element text content", this);
 } else if(eventType == XMLStreamConstants.START_ELEMENT) {
 throw new XMLStreamException(
 "element text content may not contain START_ELEMENT", getLocation());
 } else {
 throw new XMLStreamException(
 "Unexpected event type "+eventType, getLocation());
 }
 eventType = next();
 }
 return buf.toString();

Throws:: XMLStreamException - if the current event is not a START_ELEMENT or if a non text element is encountered

nextTag

int nextTag()
            throws XMLStreamException

Skips any white space (isWhiteSpace() returns true), COMMENT, or PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION, until a START_ELEMENT or END_ELEMENT is reached. If other than white space characters, COMMENT, PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION, START_ELEMENT, END_ELEMENT are encountered, an exception is thrown. This method should be used when processing element-only content seperated by white space.
Precondition: none
Postcondition: the current event is START_ELEMENT or END_ELEMENT and cursor may have moved over any whitespace event.
Essentially it does the following (implementations are free to optimized but must do equivalent processing):

 int eventType = next();
 while((eventType == XMLStreamConstants.CHARACTERS && isWhiteSpace()) // skip whitespace
 || (eventType == XMLStreamConstants.CDATA && isWhiteSpace()) 
 // skip whitespace
 || eventType == XMLStreamConstants.SPACE
 || eventType == XMLStreamConstants.PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION
 || eventType == XMLStreamConstants.COMMENT
 ) {
 eventType = next();
 }
 if (eventType != XMLStreamConstants.START_ELEMENT && eventType != XMLStreamConstants.END_ELEMENT) {
 throw new String XMLStreamException("expected start or end tag", getLocation());
 }
 return eventType;

Returns:: the event type of the element read (START_ELEMENT or END_ELEMENT)
Throws:: XMLStreamException - if the current event is not white space, PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION, START_ELEMENT or END_ELEMENT; NoSuchElementException - if this is called when hasNext() returns false

hasNext

boolean hasNext()
                throws XMLStreamException

Returns true if there are more parsing events and false if there are no more events. This method will return false if the current state of the XMLStreamReader is END_DOCUMENT

Returns:: true if there are more events, false otherwise
Throws:: XMLStreamException - if there is a fatal error detecting the next state

close

void close()
           throws XMLStreamException

Frees any resources associated with this Reader. This method does not close the underlying input source.

Throws:: XMLStreamException - if there are errors freeing associated resources

getNamespaceURI

String getNamespaceURI(String prefix)

Return the uri for the given prefix. The uri returned depends on the current state of the processor.

NOTE:The 'xml' prefix is bound as defined in Namespaces in XML specification to "http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace".

Returns:: the current text or an empty array
Throws:: IllegalStateException - if this state is not a valid text state.

getTextCharacters

int getTextCharacters(int sourceStart,
                      char[] target,

                      int length)
                      throws XMLStreamException

Gets the the text associated with a CHARACTERS, SPACE or CDATA event. Text starting a "sourceStart" is copied into "target" starting at "targetStart". Up to "length" characters are copied. The number of characters actually copied is returned. The "sourceStart" argument must be greater or equal to 0 and less than or equal to the number of characters associated with the event. Usually, one requests text starting at a "sourceStart" of 0. If the number of characters actually copied is less than the "length", then there is no more text. Otherwise, subsequent calls need to be made until all text has been retrieved. For example:


 int length = 1024;
 char[] myBuffer = new char[ length ];
 
 for ( int sourceStart = 0 ; ; sourceStart += length )
 {
    int nCopied = stream.getTextCharacters( sourceStart, myBuffer, 0, length );

   if (nCopied < length)
       break;
 }

XMLStreamException may be thrown if there are any XML errors in the underlying source. The "targetStart" argument must be greater than or equal to 0 and less than the length of "target", Length must be greater than 0 and "targetStart + length" must be less than or equal to length of "target".

Parameters:: sourceStart - the index of the first character in the source array to copy; target - the destination array; targetStart - the start offset in the target array; length - the number of characters to copy
Returns:: the number of characters actually copied
Throws:: XMLStreamException - if the underlying XML source is not well-formed; IndexOutOfBoundsException - if targetStart < 0 or > than the length of target; IndexOutOfBoundsException - if length < 0 or targetStart + length > length of target; UnsupportedOperationException - if this method is not supported; NullPointerException - is if target is null

getTextStart

int getTextStart()

Returns the offset into the text character array where the first character (of this text event) is stored.

Throws:: IllegalStateException - if this state is not a valid text state.

getTextLength

int getTextLength()

Returns the length of the sequence of characters for this Text event within the text character array.

Throws:: IllegalStateException - if this state is not a valid text state.
