Class XMLUtil

java.lang.Object
  extended byorg.openide.xml.XMLUtil
public final class XMLUtil
extends Object

Utility class collecting library methods related to XML processing.

Remember that when parsing XML files you often want to set an explicit entity resolver. For example, consider a file such as this:

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
 <!DOCTYPE root PUBLIC "-//NetBeans//DTD Foo 1.0//EN" "http://www.netbeans.org/dtds/foo-1_0.dtd">
 <root/>

If you parse this with a null entity resolver, or you use the default resolver (EntityCatalog.getDefault()) but do not do anything special with this DTD, you will probably find the parse blocking to make a network connection even when you are not validating. That is because DTDs can be used to define entities and other XML oddities, and are not a pure constraint language like Schema or RELAX-NG.

There are three basic ways to avoid the network connection.

  1. Register the DTD. This is generally the best thing to do. See EntityCatalog's documentation for details, but for example in your layer use:

     <filesystem>
   <folder name="xml">
     <folder name="entities">
       <folder name="NetBeans">
         <file name="DTD_Foo_1_0"
               url="nbres:/org/netbeans/modules/mymod/resources/foo-1_0.dtd">
           <attr name="hint.originalPublicID"
                 stringvalue="-//NetBeans//DTD Foo 1.0//EN"/>
         </file>
       </folder>
     </folder>
   </folder>
 </filesystem>

    Now the default system entity catalog will resolve the public ID to the local copy in your module, not the network copy. Additionally, anyone who mounts the "NetBeans Catalog" in the XML Entity Catalogs node in the Runtime tab will be able to use your local copy of the DTD automatically, for validation, code completion, etc. (The network URL should really exist, though, for the benefit of other tools!)

  2. You can also set an explicit entity resolver which maps that particular public ID to some local copy of the DTD, if you do not want to register it globally in the system for some reason. If handed other public IDs, just return null to indicate that the system ID should be loaded.

  3. In some cases where XML parsing is very performance-sensitive, and you know that you do not need validation and furthermore that the DTD defines no infoset (there are no entity or character definitions, etc.), you can speed up the parse. Turn off validation, but also supply a custom entity resolver that does not even bother to load the DTD at all:

     public InputSource resolveEntity(String pubid, String sysid)
     throws SAXException, IOException {
   if (pubid.equals("-//NetBeans//DTD Foo 1.0//EN")) {
     return new InputSource(new ByteArrayInputStream(new byte[0]));
   } else {
     return EntityCatalog.getDefault().resolveEntity(pubid, sysid);
   }
 }

Since:
release 3.2

Method Detail

createXMLReader

public static XMLReader createXMLReader()
                                 throws SAXException
Create a simple parser.

Returns:
createXMLReader(false, false)
Throws:
SAXException

createXMLReader

public static XMLReader createXMLReader(boolean validate)
                                 throws SAXException
Create a simple parser, possibly validating.

Parameters:
validate - if true, a validating parser is returned
Returns:
createXMLReader(validate, false)
Throws:
SAXException

createXMLReader

public static XMLReader createXMLReader(boolean validate,
                                        boolean namespaceAware)
                                 throws SAXException
Create a SAX parser from the JAXP factory. The result can be used to parse XML files.

See class Javadoc for hints on setting an entity resolver. This parser has its entity resolver set to the system entity resolver chain.

Parameters:
validate - if true, a validating parser is returned
namespaceAware - if true, a namespace aware parser is returned
Returns:
XMLReader configured according to passed parameters
Throws:
FactoryConfigurationError - Application developers should never need to directly catch errors of this type.
SAXException - if a parser fulfilling given parameters can not be created

createDocument

public static Document createDocument(String rootQName,
                                      String namespaceURI,

                                      String doctypeSystemID)
                               throws DOMException
Creates empty DOM Document using JAXP factoring. E.g.: 

 Document doc = createDocument("book", null, null, null);

creates new DOM of a well-formed document with root element named book.

Parameters:
rootQName - qualified name of root element. e.g. myroot or ns:myroot

doctypePublicID - public ID of DOCTYPE or null
doctypeSystemID - system ID of DOCTYPE or null if no DOCTYPE required and doctypePublicID is also null
Returns:
new DOM Document
Throws:
DOMException - if new DOM with passed parameters can not be created
FactoryConfigurationError - Application developers should never need to directly catch errors of this type.

parse

public static Document parse(InputSource input,

namespaceAware - if true DOM is created by namespace aware parser
errorHandler - a error handler to notify about exception or null
entityResolver - SAX entity resolver or null; see class Javadoc for hints
Returns:
document representing given input, or null if a parsing error occurs
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O problem during parsing occurs
SAXException - is thrown if a parser error occurs
FactoryConfigurationError - Application developers should never need to directly catch errors of this type.

write

public static void write(Document doc,
                         OutputStream out,
                         String enc)
                  throws IOException
Writes a DOM document to a stream. The precise output format is not guaranteed but this method will attempt to indent it sensibly.

Parameters:
doc - DOM document to be written
out - data sink
enc - XML-defined encoding name (e.g. "UTF-8")
Throws:
IOException - if JAXP fails or the stream cannot be written to

Escape passed string as XML attibute value (<, &, ' and " will be escaped. Note: An XML processor returns normalized value that can be different.

Parameters:
val - a string to be escaped
Returns:
escaped value
Throws:
CharConversionException - if val contains an improper XML character
Since:
1.40
