Method Detail

setSystemId

public void setSystemId(String systemId)
Set the system identifier for this Source.

The system identifier is optional if the source does not get its data from a URL, but it may still be useful to provide one. The application can use a system identifier, for example, to resolve relative URIs and to include in error messages and warnings.

Specified by:
setSystemId in interface Source
Parameters:
systemId - The system identifier as a URL string.

getSystemId

public String getSystemId()
Get the system identifier that was set with setSystemId.

Specified by:

The system identifier that was set with setSystemId, or null if setSystemId was not called.

send

public abstract void send(Receiver out)
                   throws XPathException
Supply events to a Receiver.

Parameters:
out - the Receiver to which events will be sent. It is the caller's responsibility to initialize the receiver with a PipelineConfiguration, and to call the open() and close() methods on the receiver before and after calling this send() method.
Throws:
XPathException - if any error occurs
