Method Detail

send

public static void send(Source source,
                        Receiver receiver,
                        ParseOptions options)
                 throws XPathException

Send the contents of a Source to a Receiver.

Parameters:

source - the source to be copied. Note that if the Source contains an InputStream or Reader then it will be left open, unless it is an AugmentedSource with the pleaseCloseAfterUse flag set. On the other hand, if it contains a URI that needs to be dereferenced to obtain an InputStream, then the InputStream will be closed after use.

receiver - the destination to which it is to be copied. The pipelineConfiguration of this receiver must have been initialized.

options - Parse options. If source is an AugmentedSource, any options set in the AugmentedSource are used in preference to those set in options. If neither specifies a particular option, the defaults from the Configuration are used. If null is supplied, the parse options from the PipelineConfiguration of the receiver are used.

Throws:

XPathException - if any error occurs

configureParser

public static void configureParser(XMLReader parser)
                            throws XPathException

Configure a SAX parser to ensure it has the correct namesapce properties set

Parameters:

parser - the parser to be configured

Throws:

XPathException - if the parser cannot be configured to the required settings (namespaces=true, namespace-prefixes=false). Note that the SAX specification requires every XMLReader to support these settings, so this error implies that the XMLReader is non-conformant; this is not uncommon in cases where the XMLReader is user-written.
