Class ContentHandlerProxy

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    javax.xml.transform.Result, Receiver
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    TypedContentHandler
    public class ContentHandlerProxy
extends java.lang.Object
implements Receiver
    A ContentHandlerProxy is a Receiver that converts events into the form expected by an underlying SAX2 ContentHandler. Relevant events (notably comments) can also be fed to a LexicalHandler.

    Note that in general the output passed to a Receiver corresponds to an External General Parsed Entity. A SAX2 ContentHandler only expects to deal with well-formed XML documents, so we only pass it the contents of the first element encountered, unless the saxon:require-well-formed output property is set to "no".

    This ContentHandlerProxy provides no access to type information. For a ContentHandler that makes type information available, see TypedContentHandler

    The ContentHandlerProxy can also be nominated as a TraceListener, to receive notification of trace events.

      • setUnderlyingContentHandler

        public void setUnderlyingContentHandler​(org.xml.sax.ContentHandler handler)
        Set the underlying content handler. This call is mandatory before using this Receiver. If the content handler is an instance of LexicalHandler, then it will also receive notification of lexical events such as comments.
        Parameters:
        handler - the SAX content handler to which all events will be directed

      • getUnderlyingContentHandler

        public org.xml.sax.ContentHandler getUnderlyingContentHandler()
        Get the underlying content handler
        Returns:
        the SAX content handler to which all events are being directed

      • setLexicalHandler

        public void setLexicalHandler​(org.xml.sax.ext.LexicalHandler handler)
        Set the Lexical Handler to be used. If called, this must be called AFTER setUnderlyingContentHandler()
        Parameters:
        handler - the SAX lexical handler to which lexical events (such as comments) will be notified.

      • getConfiguration

        public Configuration getConfiguration()

        the Saxon configuration

        Specified by:
        setSystemId in interface javax.xml.transform.Result
        Parameters:

        Returns:
        the trace listener. If there is no existing trace listener, then a new one will be created.

      • getCurrentLocation

        public Location getCurrentLocation()
        Get the current location identifier
        Returns:
        the location identifier of the most recent event.

      • isRequireWellFormed

        public boolean isRequireWellFormed()
        Ask whether the content handler can handle a stream of events that is merely well-balanced, or whether it can only handle a well-formed sequence.
        Returns:
        true if the content handler requires the event stream to represent a well-formed XML document (containing exactly one top-level element node and no top-level text nodes)

      • setRequireWellFormed

        public void setRequireWellFormed​(boolean wellFormed)
        Set whether the content handler can handle a stream of events that is merely well-balanced, or whether it can only handle a well-formed sequence. The default is false.
        Parameters:
        wellFormed - set to true if the content handler requires the event stream to represent a well-formed XML document (containing exactly one top-level element node and no top-level text nodes). Otherwise, multiple top-level elements and text nodes are allowed, as in the XDM model.

      • isUndeclareNamespaces

        public boolean isUndeclareNamespaces()
        Ask whether namespace undeclaration events (for a non-null prefix) should be notified. The default is no, because some ContentHandlers (e.g. JDOM) can't cope with them.
        Returns:
        true if namespace undeclarations (xmlns:p="") are to be output

      • setUndeclareNamespaces

        public void setUndeclareNamespaces​(boolean undeclareNamespaces)

        Parameters:
        undeclareNamespaces - true if namespace undeclarations (xmlns:p="") are to be output
