Method Detail

registerRootElement

<T> void registerRootElement(QName name,
                             XMLElementReader<T> reader)

Add a known root element which can be read by XMLExtendedStreamReader.handleAny(Object).

Parameters:

name - the element name

reader - the reader which handles the element

registerRootElement

<T> void registerRootElement(QName name,
                             Supplier<XMLElementReader<T>> supplier)

Add a known root element which can be read by XMLExtendedStreamReader.handleAny(Object).

Parameters:

name - the element name

supplier - provider for the reader which handles the element It is recommended that supplier always creates new instance of the XMLElementReader instead of caching and returning always same instance. This way unused parsers can get GC-ed when not needed.

registerRootElement

default <T,N extends Namespace> void registerRootElement(String localName,
                                                               Set<N> namespaces,
                                                               Function<N,XMLElementReader<T>> readerFactory)

Convenience method that registers a root element associated with a known set of namespaces, whose reader can be created from the specified factory.

Type Parameters:

T - the operating type of the reader

N - the namespace type

Parameters:

localName - the local name of the known root element

namespaces - a set of known namespaces for the specified the root element

factory - a factory for creating an element reader for the specified the root element

unregisterRootElement

void unregisterRootElement(QName name)

Removes a previously registered root element.

Parameters:

name - the element name

registerRootAttribute

void registerRootAttribute(QName name,
                           XMLAttributeReader<?> reader)

Add a known root attribute which can be read by XMLExtendedStreamReader.handleAttribute(Object, int).

Parameters:

name - the attribute name

reader - the reader which handles the attribute

unregisterRootAttribute

void unregisterRootAttribute(QName name)

Removes a previously registered root attribute.

Parameters:

name - the element name

parseDocument

void parseDocument(Object rootObject,
                   XMLStreamReader reader)
            throws XMLStreamException

Parse a document. The document must have a known, registered root element which can accept the given root object.

Parameters:

rootObject - the root object to send in

reader - the reader from which the document should be read

Throws:

XMLStreamException - if an error occurs

deparseDocument

void deparseDocument(XMLElementWriter<?> writer,
                     Object rootObject,
                     XMLStreamWriter streamWriter)
              throws XMLStreamException

Format the element writer's output on to an XML stream writer.

Parameters:

writer - the element writer

rootObject - the root object to send in

streamWriter - the stream writer

Throws:

XMLStreamException - if an exception occurs

deparseDocument

@Deprecated
void deparseDocument(XMLContentWriter contentWriter,
                     XMLStreamWriter streamWriter)
              throws XMLStreamException

Deprecated.

Format the content writer's output on to an XML stream writer.

Parameters:

contentWriter - the content writer

streamWriter - the stream writer

Throws:

XMLStreamException - if an exception occurs
