Class QueryReader


  • public class QueryReader
    extends java.lang.Object
    This class contains static methods used to read a query as a byte stream, infer the encoding if necessary, and return the text of the query as a string; also methods to import functions and variables from one module into another, and check their consistency.

      • readSourceQuery

        public static java.lang.String readSourceQuery​(javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamSource ss,
                                                       IntPredicateProxy charChecker)
                                                throws XPathException
        Read a query module given a StreamSource
        Parameters:
        ss - the supplied StreamSource. This must contain a non-null systemID which defines the base URI of the query module, and either an InputStream or a Reader containing the query text. In the case of an InputStream the method attempts to infer the encoding; in the case of a Reader, this has already been done, and the encoding specified within the query itself is ignored.

        The method reads from the InputStream or Reader contained in the StreamSource up to the end of file unless a fatal error occurs. It does not close the InputStream or Reader; this is the caller's responsibility.

        charChecker - this checks XML characters against either the XML 1.0 or XML 1.1 rules
        Returns:
        the text of the query
        Throws:
        XPathException - if the input cannot be read
      • readEncoding

        public static java.lang.String readEncoding​(java.io.InputStream is)
                                             throws XPathException
        Read an input stream non-destructively to determine the encoding from the Query Prolog
        Parameters:
        is - the input stream: this must satisfy the precondition is.markSupported() = true.
        Returns:
        the encoding to be used: defaults to UTF-8 if no encoding was specified explicitly in the query prolog
        Throws:
        XPathException - if the input stream cannot be read
      • readInputStream

        public static java.lang.String readInputStream​(java.io.InputStream is,
                                                       java.lang.String encoding,
                                                       IntPredicateProxy nameChecker)
                                                throws XPathException
        Read a query from an InputStream. The method checks that all characters are valid XML characters, and also performs normalization of line endings.
        Parameters:
        is - the input stream
        encoding - the encoding, or null if the encoding is unknown
        nameChecker - the predicate to be used for checking characters
        Returns:
        the content of the InputStream as a string
        Throws:
        XPathException - if the stream cannot be read, for example if there is a problem with the encoding
