\title Walkthrough: How to use the TQt SAX2 classes
For a general discussion of the XML topics in TQt please refer to
the document \link xml.html XML Module. \endlink
To learn more about SAX2 see the document describing
\link xml.html#sax2 the TQt SAX2 implementation. \endlink
Before reading on you should at least be familiar with
the \link xml.html#sax2Intro Introduction to SAX2. \endlink
<a name="quickStart"></a>
<h2>A tiny parser</h2>
In this section we will present a small example reader that outputs
the names of all elements in an XML document on the command line.
The element names are indented corresponding to their nesting level.
As mentioned in \link xml.html#sax2Intro Introduction to SAX2 \endlink
we have to implement the functions of the handler classes that we are
interested in. In our case these are only three:
\l TQXmlContentHandler::startDocument(),
\l TQXmlContentHandler::startElement() and
\l TQXmlContentHandler::endElement().
For this purpose we use a subclass of the \l TQXmlDefaultHandler (remember
that the special handler classes are all abstract and the default handler class
provides an implementation that does not change the parsing behavior):
\include xml/tagreader/structureparser.h
Apart from the private helper variable \e indent that we will use to
get indentation right, there is nothing special about our new
\e StructureParser class.
\quotefile xml/tagreader/structureparser.cpp
Even the implementation is straight-forward:
\skipto include
\printuntil ntqstring.h
First we overload \l TQXmlContentHandler::startDocument() with a non-empty version.
\printline startDocument
\printuntil }
At the beginning of the document we simply
set \e indent to an empty string because we
want to print out the root element without any indentation.
Also we return TRUE so that the parser continues without
reporting an error.
Because we want to be informed when the parser comes
accross a start tag of an element and subsequently print it out, we
have to overload \l TQXmlContentHandler::startElement().
\printline startElement
\printuntil }
This is what the implementation does: The name of the element with
preceding indentation is printed out followed by a linebreak.
Strictly speaking \e qName contains the local element name
without an eventual prefix denoting the \link xml.html#namespaces namespace.
\endlink
If another element follows before the current element's end tag
it should be indented. Therefore we add four spaces to the
\e indent string.
Finally we return TRUE in order to let the parser continue without
errors.
The last functionality we need to add is the parser's behaviour when an
end tag occurs. This means overloading \l TQXmlContentHandler::endElement().
\printline endElement
\printuntil }
Obviously we then should shorten the \e indent string by the four
whitespaces added in startElement().
With this we're done with our parser and can start writing the main()
program.
\quotefile xml/tagreader/tagreader.cpp
\skipto include
\printto handler
This check ensures that we have a sequence of files from the command
line to examine.
\printline handler
The next step is to create an instance of the \e StructureParser.
\printline reader
\printline setContentHandler
After that we set up the reader. As our \e StructureParser
class deals with \l TQXmlContentHandler functionality only
we simply register it as the content handler of our choice.
\printuntil for
Successively we deal with all files given as command line arguments.
\printline xmlFile
\printline TQXmlInputSource
Then we create a
\l TQXmlInputSource for the XML file to be parsed.
\printline parse
Now we take our input source and start parsing.
\printline }
\printuntil }
Running the program on the following XML file...
\include xml/tagreader/animals.xml
... produces the following output:
\code
animals
mammals
monkeys
gorilla
orang-utan
birds
pigeon
penguin
\endcode
It will however refuse to produce the correct result if you e.g. insert
a whitespace between a < and the element name in your test-XML file.
To prevent such annoyances
you should always install an error handler with \l
TQXmlReader::setErrorHandler(). This allows you to report
parsing errors to the user.
