IXMLParser

4/8/2010

The parser takes XML input in one of various ways (for example, through a stream, a URL to a document, or text pushed to it), parses the XML, and sends parse events to an instance of the IXMLNodeFactory interface. The parser is divided into two interfaces.

• An IXMLNodeSource interface defines the parse events and other information, such as position information for parse errors that are sent to a NodeFactory.
• The IXMLParser interface inherits from IXMLNodeSource and adds methods to define the XML source (stream, URL, or pushed text), set NodeFactories, and deal with security and state reporting issues.

The following table shows the methods of the IXMLParser interface, with a description of the purpose of each.

Method	Description
IXMLParser::ExpandEntity	Expands an entity reference
IXMLParser::GetParserState	Obtains the current state of the parser
IXMLParser::GetRoot	Obtains the root object of the current node
IXMLParser::GetSecureBaseURL	Obtains the secure base URL
IXMLParser::Load	Provides XML input to the parser
IXMLParser::LoadDTD	Fetches an external document type definition (DTD)
IXMLParser::LoadEntity	Fetches external entities that a DTD has defined
IXMLParser::ParseEntity	Parses the value of an internal entity reference
IXMLParser::PushData	Provides data to the parser by pushing the specified data as a raw buffer that contains bytes
IXMLParser::Reset	Puts the parser back into the initial state so another XML file can be loaded
IXMLParser::Run	Parses the specified amount of XML, in characters,
IXMLParser::SetFlags	Sets the flags defined in IXMLNodeSource::GetFlags
IXMLParser::SetInput	Sets the input method to be used
IXMLParser::SetRoot	Sets the root object of the current node
IXMLParser::SetSecureBaseURL	Sets the secure base URL
IXMLParser::SetURL	Provides input to the parser by passing in a base URL and relative URL from which files can be loaded
