public class DocumentBuilderImpl

extends javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder

This class implements the JAXP DocumentBuilder interface, allowing a Saxon TinyTree to be constructed using standard JAXP parsing interfaces. Note that although the TinyTree implements the DOM interfaces, it is read-only, and all attempts to update it will throw an exception. No schema or DTD validation is carried out on the document.

public DocumentBuilderImpl()

Method Detail

setConfiguration

public void setConfiguration(Configuration config)

Set the Saxon Configuration to be used by the document builder. This non-JAXP method must be called if the resulting document is to be used within a Saxon query or transformation. If no Configuration is supplied, Saxon creates a Configuration on the first call to the parse(org.xml.sax.InputSource) method, and subsequent calls reuse the same Configuration.

Since:

Saxon 8.8

getConfiguration

public Configuration getConfiguration()

Get the Saxon Configuration to be used by the document builder. This is a non-JAXP method.

Returns:

the Configuration previously supplied to setConfiguration(net.sf.saxon.Configuration), or the Configuration created automatically by Saxon on the first call to the parse(org.xml.sax.InputSource) method, or null if no Configuration has been supplied and the parse(org.xml.sax.InputSource) method has not been called.

Since:

Saxon 8.8

isNamespaceAware

public boolean isNamespaceAware()

Indicates whether or not this document builder is configured to understand namespaces.

Returns:

true if this document builder is configured to understand namespaces. This implementation always returns true.

isValidating

public boolean isValidating()

Indicates whether or not this document builder is configured to validate XML documents against a DTD.

Returns:

true if this parser is configured to validate XML documents against a DTD; false otherwise. This implementation always returns false.

newDocument

public org.w3c.dom.Document newDocument()

Create a new Document Node.

Returns:

a new Document Node. The returned document will be of little use, because it is immutable. But it can be used in a DOMResult as the result of a transformation

parse

public org.w3c.dom.Document parse(org.xml.sax.InputSource in)
                           throws org.xml.sax.SAXException

Parse the content of the given input source as an XML document and return a new DOM Document object.

Note: for this document to be usable as part of a Saxon query or transformation, the document should be built within the Configuration in which that query or transformation is running. This can be achieved using the non-JAXP setConfiguration(net.sf.saxon.Configuration) method.

Parameters:

in - InputSource containing the content to be parsed. Note that if an EntityResolver or ErrorHandler has been supplied, then the XMLReader contained in this InputSource will be modified to register this EntityResolver or ErrorHandler, replacing any that was previously registered.

Returns:

A new DOM Document object.

Throws:

org.xml.sax.SAXException - If any parse errors occur.

setEntityResolver

public void setEntityResolver(org.xml.sax.EntityResolver er)

Specify the EntityResolver to be used to resolve entities present in the XML document to be parsed. Setting this to null will result in the underlying implementation using the EntityResolver registered with the XMLReader contained in the InputSource.

Parameters:

er - The EntityResolver to be used to resolve entities present in the XML document to be parsed.

setErrorHandler

public void setErrorHandler(org.xml.sax.ErrorHandler eh)

Specify the ErrorHandler to be used by the parser. Setting this to null will result in the underlying implementation using using the ErrorHandler registered with the XMLReader contained in the InputSource.

Parameters:

eh - The ErrorHandler to be used by the parser.

getDOMImplementation

public org.w3c.dom.DOMImplementation getDOMImplementation()

Obtain an instance of a DOMImplementation object.

Returns:

A new instance of a DOMImplementation.
