Tree Benefits

• Some data preparation tasks require early

access to data that is further along in the

document (e.g. we wish to extract titles to build a table of contents)

• New tree construction is easier (e.g. XSLT works from a tree to convert FpML to WML)

Event-Driven Benefits

• We do not need the memory required for trees

• Parsing can be done faster with no tree construction going on

Important SAX interfaces and classes

class InputSource -- A single input source for an XML entity

interface XMLReader -- defines parser behavior (implemented by Xerces’ SAXParser) Four core SAX2 handler interfaces:

•EntityResolver •DTDHandler •ContentHandler •ErrorHandler

Implemented byclass DefaultHandler


Processing XML with SAX

interface XMLReader -- defines parser behavior (implemented by Xerces’ SAXParser) XMLReader is the interface that an XML parser's SAX2 driver must implement. This interface allows an application to set and query features and properties in the parser, to register event handlers for document processing, and to initiate a document parse.


Processing XML with SAX

• We will look at the following interfaces and classes and then study an example

interface ContentHandler -- reports on document events interface ErrorHandler – reports on validity errors class DefaultHandler – implements both of the above plus two others


public interface ContentHandler

Receive notification of general document events.

This is the main interface that most SAX applications implement: if the application needs to be informed of basic parsing events, it implements this interface andregisters an instance with the SAX parser using the setContentHandler method.

The parser uses the instance to report basic document-related events like thestart and end of elements and character data.


void characters(…) Receive notification of character data.void endDocument(…) Receive notification of the end of a document.void endElement(…) Receive notification of the end of an element.void startDocument(…) Receive notification of the beginning of a document. void startElement(…) Receive notification of the beginning of an element.

Some methods from the ContentHandler Interface


public interface ErrorHandler

Basic interface for SAX error handlers.

If a SAX application needs to implement customized error handling, it must implement this interface and then register an instance with the SAX parser.The parser will then report all errors and warnings through this interface.

For XML processing errors, a SAX driver must use this interface instead ofthrowing an exception: it is up to the application to decide whether to throwan exception for different types of errors and warnings. Note, however,that there is no requirement that the parser continue to provide useful informationafter a call to fatalError.


public interface ErrorHandler

Some methods are:

void error(SAXParseException exception) Receive notification of a recoverable error.void fatalError(SAXParseException exception) Receive notification of a non-recoverable error.void warning(SAXParseException exception) Receive notification of a warning.


public class DefaultHandlerextends java.lang.Objectimplements EntityResolver, DTDHandler, ContentHandler, ErrorHandler

Default base class for handlers.

This class implements the default behaviour for four SAX interfaces: EntityResolver, DTDHandler, ContentHandler, and ErrorHandler.

We don’t have to go through a servlet…Tomcat can send the

files

String serverString = "http://localhost:8080/sax/fpml/"; String fileName = argv[0];

InputSource is = new InputSource(serverString + fileName);

But the servlet illustrates that the XML data can be generated dynamically.


The InputSource Class

The SAX and DOM parsers need XML input. The “output”produced by these parsers amounts to a series of method calls(SAX) or an application programmer interface to the tree (DOM).

An InputSource object can be used to provided input to theparser.

InputSurce SAX or DOM

Tree

Eventsapplication

So, how do we build an InputSource object?


Some InputSource constructors:

InputSource(String pathToFile); InputSource(InputStream byteStream); InputStream(Reader characterStream);

For example: String text = “<a>some xml</a>”; StringReader sr = new StringReader(text); InputSource is = new InputSource(sr); : myParser.parse(is);

The InputSource Class


But what about the DTD?

public interface EntityResolver

Basic interface for resolving entities.

If a SAX application needs to implement customized handling for external entities, it must implement this interface and registeran instance with the SAX parser using the parser'ssetEntityResolver method.

The parser will then allow the application to intercept any externalentities (including the external DTD subset and external parameterentities, if any) before including them.


EntityResolver

public InputSource resolveEntity(String publicId, String systemId) {

// Add this method to the client above. The systemId String // holds the path to the dtd as specified in the xml document. // We may now access the dtd from a servlet and return an // InputStream or return null and let the parser resolve the // external entity. System.out.println("Attempting to resolve" + "Public id :" + publicId + "System id :" + systemId); return null;

}

XML DOM

• The World Wide Web Consortium’s Document Object Model

•Provides a common vocabulary to use in manipulating XML documents.

• May be used from C, Java, Perl, Python, or VB

• Things may be quite different “under the hood”.

• The interface to the document will be the same.

Some DOM Documentation from JavaSoft


The Node Interface

• The Node interface is the primary datatype for the entire Document Object Model.

• It represents a single node in the document tree.

• While all objects implementing the Node interface expose methods for dealing with children, not all objects implementing the Node interface may have children.

• For example, Text nodes may not have children.


Properties

• All Nodes have properties.

• Not all properties are needed by all types of nodes.

• The attribute property is an important part of the Element node but is null for the Text nodes.

• We access the properties through methods…


Some Methods of Node

Example Methods are:

String getNodeName() – depends on the Node type

if Element node return tag name

if Text node return #text




short getNodeType()

Might return a constant like ELEMENT_NODE or TEXT_NODE or …




String getNodeValue()

if the Node is an Element Node then return ‘null’

if the Node is a Text Node then return a String representing that text.




Node getParentNode()

returns a reference to the parent




public Node getFirstChild()

Returns the value of the firstChild property.




public NodeList getChildNodes()

returns a NodeList object

NodeList is an interface and not a Node.


The NodeList Interface

•The NodeList interface provides the abstraction of an ordered collection of nodes, without defining or constraining how this collection is implemented.

•The items in the NodeList are accessible via an integral index, starting from 0.


There are only two methods of the NodeList Interface

public Node item(int index)

Returns the item at index in the collection. If index is greater than or equal to the number of nodes in the list, this returns null.


There are only two methods of the NodeList Interface

public int getLength()

Returns the value of the length property.


The Element Interface

public interface Elementextends Node

• By far the vast majority of objects (apart from text) that authors encounter when traversing a document are Element nodes.

Inheritance

Nothing prevents us fromextending one interface inorder to create another.

• Those who implement Element just have more promises to keep.




• Some methods in the Element interface

String getAttribute(String name)

Retrieves an attribute value by name.





public String getTagName()

Returns the value of the tagName property.





public NodeList getElementsByTagName(String name)

Returns a NodeList of all descendant elements with a given tag name, in the order in which they would be encountered in a preorder traversal of the Element tree..


The CharacterData Interface

public interface CharacterDataextends Node

The CharacterData interface extends Node with a set of attributes and methods for accessing character data in the DOM. For clarity this set is defined here rather than on each object that usesthese attributes and methods. No DOM objects correspond directly to CharacterData, though Text and others do inherit the interface from it. All offsets in this interface start from 0.


The CharacterData Interface

public interface CharacterDataextends Node

An example method:

public String getData()

Returns the value of the the character data of the node that implements this interface. The Text interface extends CharacterData. public void setData(String data) is also available.


The Document Interface

public interface Documentextends Node

The Document interface represents the entire HTML or XML document. Conceptually, it is the root of the document tree, and provides the primary access to the document's data.



public interface Documentextends Node

Some methods:

public Element getDocumentElement()

Returns the value of the documentElement property. This is a convenience attribute that allows direct access to the child node that is the root element of the document. For HTML documents, this is the element with the tagName "HTML".



Some methods:

public NodeList getElementsByTagName(String tagname)

Returns a NodeList of all the Elements with a given tag name in the order in which the would be encountered in a preorder traversal of the Document tree. Parameters: tagname - The name of the tag to match on. The special value "*" matches all tags. Returns: A new NodeList object containing all the matched Elements.

DocumentBuilder docBuilder = docBuilderFactory.newDocumentBuilder(); docBuilder.setErrorHandler( new org.xml.sax.ErrorHandler() {

public void fatalError(SAXParseException e) throws SAXException { System.out.println("Fatal error"); // an exception will be thrown by SAX } public void error(SAXParseException e) throws SAXParseException { System.out.println("Validity error"); throw e; }

public void warning(SAXParseException err) throws SAXParseException { System.out.println("** Warning" + ", line " + err.getLineNumber() + ", uri " + err.getSystemId()); System.out.println(" " + err.getMessage()); throw err; } } ); public interface ErrorHandler

Basic interface for SAX error handlers.

If a SAX application needs to implement customized error handling, it must implement this interface and thenregister an instance with the SAX parser using the parser's setErrorHandler method. The parser will then report allerrors and warnings through this interface.

The parser shall use this interface instead of throwing an exception: it is up to the application whether to throw anexception for different types of errors and warnings. Note, however, that there is no requirement that the parsercontinue to provide useful information after a call to fatalError (in other words, a SAX driver class could catch anexception and report a fatalError).


InputSource is = new InputSource("http://mccarthy.heinz.cmu.edu:8080/fpml/FixedFloatSwap.xml");

Document doc = docBuilder.parse(is);
