bool xmlpp::Parser::get_include_default_attributes | ( |  | ) |

See set_include_default_attributes().

Since libxml++ 2.38:

Returns
  Whether attributes with default values will be included in the node tree.

void xmlpp::Parser::get_parser_options | ( | int & | set_options,
|  | int & | clear_options
| ) |  |

See set_parser_options().

Since libxml++ 2.38:

Parameters

  [out] | set_options | Set bits correspond to flags that shall be set during parsing.
  [out] | clear_options | Set bits correspond to flags that shall be cleared during parsing. Bits that are set in neither set_options nor clear_options are not affected.

virtual bool xmlpp::Parser::get_substitute_entities | ( |  | ) | const
| virtual

See set_substitute_entities().

Returns
  Whether entities will be substituted during parsing.

bool xmlpp::Parser::get_throw_messages | ( |  | ) | const

See set_throw_messages().

Since libxml++ 2.36:

Returns
  Whether messages will be collected and thrown in an exception. The default with only validation messages thrown is returned as false.

virtual bool xmlpp::Parser::get_validate | ( |  | ) | const
| virtual

See set_validate().

Returns
  Whether the parser will validate the XML file.

virtual void xmlpp::Parser::handleException | ( | const exception& | e | ) |
| protected virtual

virtual void xmlpp::Parser::initialize_context | ( |  | ) |
| protected virtual

virtual void xmlpp::Parser::on_validity_error | ( | const Glib::ustring & | message | ) |

virtual void xmlpp::Parser::on_validity_warning | ( | const Glib::ustring & | message | ) |
| protected virtual

virtual void xmlpp::Parser::parse_file | ( | const Glib::ustring & | filename | ) |
| pure virtual

Parse an XML document from a file.

Exceptions

  exception |

Parameters

  filename | The path to the file.

Implemented in xmlpp::SaxParser, and xmlpp::DomParser.

virtual void xmlpp::Parser::parse_memory | ( | const Glib::ustring & | contents | ) |
| pure virtual

Parse an XML document from a string.

Exceptions

  exception |

Parameters

  contents | The XML document as a string.

Implemented in xmlpp::SaxParser, and xmlpp::DomParser.

virtual void xmlpp::Parser::parse_stream | ( | std::istream & | in | ) |
| pure virtual

Parse an XML document from a stream.

Exceptions

  exception |

Parameters

  in | The stream.

Implemented in xmlpp::SaxParser, and xmlpp::DomParser.

virtual void xmlpp::Parser::release_underlying | ( |  | ) |
| protected virtual

Reimplemented in xmlpp::SaxParser, and xmlpp::DomParser.

void xmlpp::Parser::set_include_default_attributes | ( | bool | val = `true` | ) |

Set whether default attribute values from the DTD shall be included in the node tree.

If set, attributes not assigned a value in the XML file, but with a default value in the DTD file, will be included in the node tree that the parser creates. These attributes will be represented by AttributeNode instances (not AttributeDeclaration instances), just like attributes which are assigned a value in the XML file.

Since libxml++ 2.38:

Parameters

  val | Whether attributes with default values will be included in the node tree.

void xmlpp::Parser::set_parser_options | ( | int | set_options = `0`,
|  | int | clear_options = `0`
| ) |  |

Set and/or clear parser option flags.

See the libxml2 documentation, enum xmlParserOption, for a list of parser options. This method overrides other methods that set parser options, such as set_validate(), set_substitute_entities() and set_include_default_attributes(). Use set_parser_options() only if no other method can set the parser options you want.

Since libxml++ 2.38:

Parameters

  set_options | Set bits correspond to flags that shall be set during parsing.
  clear_options | Set bits correspond to flags that shall be cleared during parsing. Bits that are set in neither set_options nor clear_options are not affected.

virtual void xmlpp::Parser::set_substitute_entities | ( | bool | val = `true` | ) |
| virtual

Set whether the parser will automatically substitute entity references with the text of the entities' definitions.

For instance, this affects the text returned by ContentNode::get_content(). By default, the parser will not substitute entities, so that you do not lose the entity reference information.

Parameters

  val | Whether entities will be substitued.

void xmlpp::Parser::set_throw_messages | ( | bool | val = `true` | ) |

Set whether the parser will collect and throw error and warning messages.

If messages are collected, they are included in an exception thrown at the end of parsing. If the messages are not collected, they are written on stderr. The messages written on stderr are slightly different, and may be preferred in a program started from the command-line.

The default, if set_throw_messages() is not called, is to collect and throw only messages from validation. Other messages are written to stderr. This is for backward compatibility, and may change in the future.

Since libxml++ 2.36:

Parameters

  val | Whether messages will be collected and thrown in an exception.

virtual void xmlpp::Parser::set_validate | ( | bool | val = `true` | ) |
| virtual

By default, the parser will not validate the XML file.

Parameters

  val | Whether the document should be validated.
