Package net.sf.saxon.resource

This package contains Java classes used to represent abstractions of resources of different kinds that can be retrieved as part of a collection (using the fn:collection() function).

Class Summary

Class	Description
AbstractResourceCollection	AbstractCollection is an abstract superclass for the various implementations of ResourceCollection within Saxon.
AbstractResourceCollection.InputDetails	Information about a resource
ActiveSAXSource	This class extends the standard SAXSource class by providing a ActiveSAXSource.deliver(Receiver, ParseOptions) method, meaning that Saxon can treat it just like any other ActiveSource implementation.
ActiveStreamSource	An extension of the StreamSource object providing a ActiveStreamSource.deliver(Receiver, ParseOptions) method so that the contents of the source can be delivered to a supplied Receiver
BinaryResource	A binary resource that might appear in a resource collection.
CatalogCollection	A resource collection implemented by means of a catalog file.
DataURIScheme	This class handles URIs using the data: URI scheme defined in RFC 2397
DirectoryCollection	This class represents a resource collection containing all, or selected, files within a filestore directory.
EncodingDetector	Utility class to detect the encoding of a stream by examining the initial bytes
ExplicitCollection	This class represents a resource collection containing an explicitly enumerated set of resources
FailedResource	FailedResource represents an item in a collection that could not be processed because of some kind of error
JarCollection	A JarCollection represents a collection of resources held in a JAR or ZIP archive, accessed typically using a URI using the (Java-defined) "jar" URI scheme, or simply a "file" URI where the target file is a JAR or ZIP file.
JSONResource	A Resource (that is, an item in a collection) holding JSON content
MetadataResource	Represents information about a resource, as well as a pointer to the resource itself
ResourceLoader	The class provides a static method for loading resources from a URL.
StandardCollectionFinder	Default implementation of the CollectionFinder interface.
TypedStreamSource	A StreamSource augmented with ContentType information, which potentially provides the media type and encoding
UnknownResource	The class is an implementation of the generic Resource object (typically an item in a collection) representing a resource whose type is not yet known - typically because it uses an unregistered file extension.
UnparsedTextResource	This class implements th interface Resource.
XmlResource	The class is an implementation of the generic Resource object (typically an item in a collection) representing an XML document

Package net.sf.saxon.resource Description

This package contains Java classes used to represent abstractions of resources of different kinds that can be retrieved as part of a collection (using the fn:collection() function).

This framework was introduced in Saxon 9.8, reflecting the change in specification of fn:collection() to allow any kind of resources to be returned, not only XML documents.

The set of media types that are recognized, and the way in which they are processed, can be customized via the Saxon Configuration file.
