Class EventBuffer

net.sf.saxon.event.SequenceReceiver

net.sf.saxon.event.EventBuffer

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 ReceiverOption

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,
                         AttributeMap attributes,
                         NamespaceMap namespaces,
                         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.

attributes - the attributes of this element

namespaces - the in-scope namespaces of this element: generally this is all the in-scope namespaces, without relying on inheriting namespaces from parent elements

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 relevant properties, zero is supplied. The definitions of the bits are in class ReceiverOption

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(UnicodeString 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

public void processingInstruction(java.lang.String name,
                                  UnicodeString data,
                                  Location location,
                                  int properties)
                           throws XPathException

Description copied from interface: Receiver

Output a processing instruction

Parameters:

name - The PI name. This must be a legal name (it will not be checked).

data - The data portion of the processing instruction

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

properties - Additional information about the PI.

Throws:

XPathException - if an error occurs

comment

public void comment(UnicodeString content,
                    Location location,
                    int properties)
             throws XPathException

Description copied from interface: Receiver

Notify a comment. Comments are only notified if they are outside the DTD.

Parameters:

content - The content of the comment

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

properties - Additional information about the comment.

Throws:

XPathException - if an error occurs

append

public void append(Item item,
                   Location location,
                   int properties)
            throws XPathException

Description copied from class: SequenceReceiver

Specified by:

append in interface Receiver

Specified by:

append in class SequenceReceiver

Parameters:

item - the item to be appended

location - the location of the calling instruction, for diagnostics

properties - if the item is an element node, this indicates whether its namespaces need to be copied. Values are ReceiverOption.ALL_NAMESPACES; the default (0) means

Throws:

XPathException - if an error occurs

close

public void close()
           throws XPathException

Description copied from interface: Receiver

Notify the end of the event stream

Throws:

XPathException - if an error occurs

replay

public void replay(Receiver out)
            throws XPathException

Replay the captured events to a supplied destination

Parameters:

out - the destination Receiver to receive the events
