load serializer.xmlsaxstream

This module provides the Serializer.XmlSaxStream class which allow to read and write XML documents with a SAX algorithm.

def (self, content)

The reader calls this function when it has parsed a chunk of character data inside a CDATA section. The character data is given through the content parameter. The default implementation calls onCharacters.

If this function returns false the reader stops parsing and report an unfinished parsing.

def (self, content)

The reader calls this function when it has parsed a chunk of normal character data. The character data is given through the content parameter.

If this function returns false the reader stops parsing and report an unfinished parsing.

def (self, content)

The reader calls this function when it has parsed a comment. The comment content is given through the content parameter.

If this function returns false the reader stops parsing and report an unfinished parsing.

def (self, content)

The reader calls this function when it has parsed a chunk of character data inside a DTD section. The character data is given through the content parameter.

If this function returns false the reader stops parsing and report an unfinished parsing.

def (self)

The reader calls this function after it has finished parsing. It is called just once, and is the last handler function called. It is called after the reader has read all input.

If this function returns false the reader stops parsing and report an unfinished parsing.

def (self, namespaceUri, localName, qualifiedName)

The reader calls this function when it has parsed an end element tag with the name localName.

If this function returns false the reader stops parsing and report an unfinished parsing.

def (self, name, attributes)

The reader calls this function when it has parsed a processing instruction. The target name is given through the name parameter and each attributes of the data is inserted in an hash (name to value) and passed through the attributes parameter.

If this function returns false the reader stops parsing and report an unfinished parsing.

def (self)

The reader calls this function when it starts parsing the document. The reader calls this function just once.

If this function returns false the reader stops parsing and report an unfinished parsing.

def (self, namespaceUri, localName, qualifiedName, attributes)

The reader calls this function when it has parsed a start element tag. The tag name is given through the localName parameter and each attributes of the tag is inserted in an hash (name to value) and passed through the attributes parameter.

There is a corresponding onEndElement call when the corresponding end element tag is read. The onStartElement and onEndElement calls are always nested correctly. Empty element tags (e.g. <.../>) cause a onStartElement call to be immediately followed by an onEndElement call.

If this function returns false the reader stops parsing and report an unfinished parsing.

def (const self)

Returns the handle used to handle XML content.

none

Internal read handle.

def (self, stream)

Creates a new stream for reading and writing data using stream.

def (self)

Reads the content of the stream. Returns true if all encountred events have been correctly handled by the handler; otherwise returns false. If the content of the stream is not a valid XML, an instance of Serializer.DocumentStream.InvalidDocument is raised.

def (self, handle)

Sets the handle used to handle XML content.
