All Implemented Interfaces:

javax.xml.transform.Result, Receiver

public class EventBuffer
extends SequenceReceiver

An EventBuffer is a receiver of events that records the events in memory for subsequent replay. It is used, for example, in the implementation of try/catch, where events cannot be written directly to the final serializer in case an error occurs and is caught.

Note that events are retained along with their properties, so the class implements "sticky disable-output-escaping" - text nodes can have selected characters marked with the disable-escaping property.

Method Detail

startDocument

public void startDocument(int properties)
                   throws XPathException

Description copied from interface: Receiver

Notify the start of a document node

Parameters:

properties - bit-significant integer indicating properties of the document node. The definitions of the bits are in class ReceiverOptions

Throws:

XPathException - if an error occurs

endDocument

public void endDocument()
                 throws XPathException

Description copied from interface: Receiver

Notify the end of a document node

Throws:

XPathException - if an error occurs

startElement

public void startElement(NodeName elemName,
                         SchemaType typeCode,
                         Location location,
                         int properties)
                  throws XPathException

Description copied from interface: Receiver

Notify the start of an element

Parameters:

elemName - the name of the element.

typeCode - the type annotation of the element.

location - an object providing information about the module, line, and column where the node originated

properties - bit-significant properties of the element node. If there are no revelant properties, zero is supplied. The definitions of the bits are in class ReceiverOptions

Throws:

XPathException - if an error occurs

namespace

public void namespace(NamespaceBindingSet namespaceBindings,
                      int properties)
               throws XPathException

Description copied from interface: Receiver

Notify one or more namespaces. Namespaces are notified after the startElement event, and before any children for the element. The namespaces that are reported are only required to include those that are different from the parent element. The events represent namespace declarations and undeclarations rather than in-scope namespace nodes: an undeclaration is represented by a namespace code of zero. If the sequence of namespace events contains two A namespace must not conflict with any namespaces already used for element or attribute names.

Parameters:

namespaceBindings - contains the namespace prefix and namespace URI

properties - The most important property is REJECT_DUPLICATES. If this property is set, the namespace declaration will be rejected if it conflicts with a previous declaration of the same prefix. If the property is not set, the namespace declaration will be ignored if it conflicts with a previous declaration. This reflects the fact that when copying a tree, namespaces for child elements are emitted before the namespaces of their parent element. Unfortunately this conflicts with the XSLT rule for complex content construction, where the recovery action in the event of conflicts is to take the namespace that comes last. XSLT therefore doesn't recover from this error:

Throws:

XPathException - if an error occurs

attribute

public void attribute(NodeName attName,
                      SimpleType typeCode,
                      java.lang.CharSequence value,
                      Location location,
                      int properties)
               throws XPathException

Description copied from interface: Receiver

Notify an attribute. Attributes are notified after the startElement event, and before any children. Namespaces and attributes may be intermingled.

Parameters:

attName - The name of the attribute

typeCode - The type annotation of the attribute

value - the string value of the attribute

location - provides information such as line number and system ID.

properties - Bit significant value. The following bits are defined:

DISABLE_ESCAPING

Disable escaping for this attribute

NO_SPECIAL_CHARACTERS

Attribute value contains no special characters

Throws:

XPathException - if an error occurs

startContent

public void startContent()
                  throws XPathException

Description copied from interface: Receiver

Notify the start of the content, that is, the completion of all attributes and namespaces. Note that the initial receiver of output from XSLT instructions will not receive this event, it has to detect it itself. Note that this event is reported for every element even if it has no attributes, no namespaces, and no content.

Throws:

XPathException - if an error occurs

endElement

public void endElement()
                throws XPathException

Description copied from interface: Receiver

Notify the end of an element. The receiver must maintain a stack if it needs to know which element is ending.

Throws:

XPathException - if an error occurs

characters

public void characters(java.lang.CharSequence chars,
                       Location location,
                       int properties)
                throws XPathException

Description copied from interface: Receiver

Notify character data. Note that some receivers may require the character data to be sent in a single event, but in general this is not a requirement.

Parameters:

chars - The characters

location - provides information such as line number and system ID.

properties - Bit significant value. The following bits are defined:

DISABLE_ESCAPING

Disable escaping for this text node

USE_CDATA

Output as a CDATA section

Throws:

XPathException - if an error occurs

processingInstruction

                                  int properties)
                           throws XPathException
