AbstractXMLFormatReader

public AbstractXMLFormatReader()

Method Detail

getInputSource

public org.xml.sax.InputSource getInputSource()

INTERNAL: Gets the SAX input source used by the reader.

setInputSource

public void setInputSource(org.xml.sax.InputSource source)

INTERNAL: Sets the SAX input source used by the reader.

getBaseAddress

public LocatorIF getBaseAddress()

INTERNAL: Gets the top level base address of the input source.

setBaseAddress

public void setBaseAddress(LocatorIF base_address)

INTERNAL: Sets the top level base address of the input source.

The top level base address is used to resolve relative addresses during input source processing. The top level base address can be overriden by xml:base constructs in the input source. This property need not be set if the input source specifies the base address.

getXMLReaderFactory

public XMLReaderFactoryIF getXMLReaderFactory()

INTERNAL: Gets the XMLReaderFactoryIF that will be used to create XML parser objects inside the reader.

setXMLReaderFactory

public void setXMLReaderFactory(XMLReaderFactoryIF xrfactory)

INTERNAL: Sets the XMLReaderFactoryIF that will be used to create XML parser objects inside the reader.

Default: ConfiguredXMLReaderFactory using an IgnoreTopicMapDTDEntityResolver entity resolver.

The factory is free to configure the XML reader object as it sees fit, but the reader will use its own internal content handler.

configureXMLReaderFactory
