module REXML::SAX2Listener

A template for stream parser listeners. Note that the declarations (attlistdecl, elementdecl, etc) are trivially processed; REXML doesn't yet handle doctype entity declarations, so you have to parse them out yourself.

Public Instance Methods

attlistdecl(element, pairs, contents) click to toggle source

If a doctype includes an ATTLIST declaration, it will cause this method to be called. The content is the declaration itself, unparsed. EG, <!ATTLIST el attr CDATA #REQUIRED> will come to this method as “el attr CDATA #REQUIRED”. This is the same for all of the .*decl methods.

# File lib/rexml/sax2listener.rb, line 52
def attlistdecl(element, pairs, contents)
end

cdata(content) click to toggle source

Called when <![CDATA[ … ]]> is encountered in a document. @p content “…”

# File lib/rexml/sax2listener.rb, line 80
def cdata content
end

characters(text) click to toggle source

# File lib/rexml/sax2listener.rb, line 35
def characters text
end

comment(comment) click to toggle source

Called when a comment is encountered. @p comment The content of the comment

# File lib/rexml/sax2listener.rb, line 92
def comment comment
end

doctype(name, pub_sys, long_name, uri) click to toggle source

Handles a doctype declaration. Any attributes of the doctype which are not supplied will be nil. # EG, <!DOCTYPE me PUBLIC “foo” “bar”> @p name the name of the doctype; EG, “me” @p pub_sys “PUBLIC”, “SYSTEM”, or nil. EG, “PUBLIC” @p long_name the supplied long name, or nil. EG, “foo” @p uri the uri of the doctype, or nil. EG, “bar”

# File lib/rexml/sax2listener.rb, line 45
def doctype name, pub_sys, long_name, uri
end

<!ELEMENT …>

# File lib/rexml/sax2listener.rb, line 55

# File lib/rexml/sax2listener.rb, line 25
def end_document
end

end_element(uri, localname, qname) click to toggle source

entitydecl(name, decl) click to toggle source

<!ENTITY …> The argument passed to this method is an array of the entity declaration. It can be in a number of formats, but in general it returns (example, result):

<!ENTITY % YN '"Yes"'>
["%", "YN", "'\"Yes\"'", "\""]
<!ENTITY % YN 'Yes'>
["%", "YN", "'Yes'", "s"]
<!ENTITY WhatHeSaid "He said %YN;">
["WhatHeSaid", "\"He said %YN;\"", "YN"]

["open-hatch", "PUBLIC", "\"-//Textuality//TEXT Standard open-hatch boilerplate//EN\"", "\"http://www.textuality.com/boilerplate/OpenHatch.xml\""]
<!ENTITY hatch-pic SYSTEM "../grafix/OpenHatch.gif" NDATA gif>
["hatch-pic", "SYSTEM", "\"../grafix/OpenHatch.gif\"", "\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tNDATA gif", "gif"]
