    154          1.1  tron 
    155          1.1  tron <p>Expat is a stream-oriented parser. You register callback (or
    156          1.1  tron handler) functions with the parser and then start feeding it the
    157          1.1  tron document.  As the parser recognizes parts of the document, it will
    158          1.1  tron call the appropriate handler for that part (if you've registered one.) 
    159          1.1  tron The document is fed to the parser in pieces, so you can start parsing
    160          1.1  tron before you have all the document. This also allows you to parse really
    161          1.1  tron huge documents that won't fit into memory.</p>
    162          1.1  tron 
    163          1.1  tron <p>Expat can be intimidating due to the many kinds of handlers and
    164          1.1  tron options you can set. But you only need to learn four functions in
    165          1.1  tron order to do 90% of what you'll want to do with it:</p>

    190          1.1  tron 
    191          1.1  tron <p>Let's look at a very simple example program that only uses 3 of the
    192          1.1  tron above functions (it doesn't need to set a character handler.) The
    193          1.1  tron program <a href="../examples/outline.c">outline.c</a> prints an
    194          1.1  tron element outline, indenting child elements to distinguish them from the
    195          1.1  tron parent element that contains them. The start handler does all the
    196          1.1  tron work.  It prints two indenting spaces for every level of ancestor
    197          1.1  tron elements, then it prints the element and attribute
    198          1.1  tron information. Finally it increments the global <code>Depth</code>
    199          1.1  tron variable.</p>

    426          1.1  tron <h3>Expat Basics</h3>
    427          1.1  tron 
    428          1.1  tron <p>As we saw in the example in the overview, the first step in parsing
    429          1.1  tron an XML document with Expat is to create a parser object. There are <a
    430          1.1  tron href="#creation">three functions</a> in the Expat API for creating a
    431          1.1  tron parser object.  However, only two of these (<code><a href=
    432          1.1  tron "#XML_ParserCreate" >XML_ParserCreate</a></code> and <code><a href=
    433          1.1  tron "#XML_ParserCreateNS" >XML_ParserCreateNS</a></code>) can be used for
    434          1.1  tron constructing a parser for a top-level document.  The object returned
    435          1.1  tron by these functions is an opaque pointer (i.e. "expat.h" declares it as
    436          1.1  tron void *) to data with further internal structure. In order to free the
    437          1.1  tron memory associated with this object you must call <code><a href=
    438          1.1  tron "#XML_ParserFree" >XML_ParserFree</a></code>. Note that if you have
    439          1.1  tron provided any <a href="#userdata">user data</a> that gets stored in the
    440          1.1  tron parser, then your application is responsible for freeing it prior to
    441          1.1  tron calling <code>XML_ParserFree</code>.</p>
    442          1.1  tron 
    443          1.1  tron <p>The objects returned by the parser creation functions are good for
    444          1.1  tron parsing only one XML document or external parsed entity. If your
    445          1.1  tron application needs to parse many XML documents, then it needs to create
    446          1.1  tron a parser object for each one. The best way to deal with this is to
    447          1.1  tron create a higher level object that contains all the default
    448          1.1  tron initialization you want for your parser objects.</p>
    449          1.1  tron 
    450          1.1  tron <p>Walking through a document hierarchy with a stream oriented parser
    451          1.1  tron will require a good stack mechanism in order to keep track of current
    452          1.1  tron context.  For instance, to answer the simple question, "What element
    453          1.1  tron does this text belong to?" requires a stack, since the parser may have
    454          1.1  tron descended into other elements that are children of the current one and
    455          1.1  tron has encountered this text on the way out.</p>

    457          1.1  tron <p>The things you're likely to want to keep on a stack are the
    458          1.1  tron currently opened element and it's attributes. You push this
    459          1.1  tron information onto the stack in the start handler and you pop it off in
    460          1.1  tron the end handler.</p>
    461          1.1  tron 
    462          1.1  tron <p>For some tasks, it is sufficient to just keep information on what
    463          1.1  tron the depth of the stack is (or would be if you had one.) The outline
    464          1.1  tron program shown above presents one example. Another such task would be
    465          1.1  tron skipping over a complete element. When you see the start tag for the
    466          1.1  tron element you want to skip, you set a skip flag and record the depth at
    467          1.1  tron which the element started.  When the end tag handler encounters the
    468          1.1  tron same depth, the skipped element has ended and the flag may be
    469          1.1  tron cleared. If you follow the convention that the root element starts at
    470          1.1  tron 1, then you can use the same variable for skip flag and skip
    471          1.1  tron depth.</p>

    522          1.1  tron <p>In order to be able to pass information between different handlers
    523          1.1  tron without using globals, you'll need to define a data structure to hold
    524          1.1  tron the shared variables. You can then tell Expat (with the <code><a href=
    525          1.1  tron "#XML_SetUserData" >XML_SetUserData</a></code> function) to pass a
    526          1.1  tron pointer to this structure to the handlers.  This is the first
    527          1.1  tron argument received by most handlers.  In the <a href="#reference"
    528          1.1  tron >reference section</a>, an argument to a callback function is named
    529          1.1  tron <code>userData</code> and have type <code>void *</code> if the user
    530          1.1  tron data is passed; it will have the type <code>XML_Parser</code> if the
    531          1.1  tron parser itself is passed.  When the parser is passed, the user data may
    532          1.1  tron be retrieved using <code><a href="#XML_GetUserData"

    534          1.1  tron 
    535          1.1  tron <p>One common case where multiple calls to a single handler may need

    537          1.1  tron content passed to the character data handler (set by <code><a href=

    539          1.1  tron >XML_SetCharacterDataHandler</a></code>) needs to be accumulated.  A
    540          1.1  tron common first-time mistake with any of the event-oriented interfaces to
    541          1.1  tron an XML parser is to expect all the text contained in an element to be
    542          1.1  tron reported by a single call to the character data handler.  Expat, like
    543          1.1  tron many other XML parsers, reports such data as a sequence of calls;
    544          1.1  tron there's no way to know when the end of the sequence is reached until a
    545          1.1  tron different callback is made.  A buffer referenced by the user data

    601          1.1  tron declarations by setting namespace declaration handlers with <a href=

    627          1.1  tron corresponding end tag that ends the namespace's scope.  The namespace
    628          1.1  tron start handler gets passed the prefix and URI for the namespace.  For a
    629          1.1  tron default namespace declaration (xmlns='...'), the prefix will be null.
    630          1.1  tron The URI will be null for the case where the default namespace is being

    714          1.1  tron 
    715          1.1  tron <p>Expat does not read or parse external entities directly. Note that
    716          1.1  tron any external DTD is a special case of an external entity.  If you've
    717          1.1  tron set no <code>ExternalEntityRefHandler</code>, then external entity
    718          1.1  tron references are silently ignored. Otherwise, it calls your handler with
    719          1.1  tron the information needed to read and parse the external entity.</p>
    720          1.1  tron 
    721          1.1  tron <p>Your handler isn't actually responsible for parsing the entity, but
    722          1.1  tron it is responsible for creating a subsidiary parser with <code><a href=
    723          1.1  tron "#XML_ExternalEntityParserCreate"
    724          1.1  tron >XML_ExternalEntityParserCreate</a></code> that will do the job. This
    725          1.1  tron returns an instance of <code>XML_Parser</code> that has handlers and
    726          1.1  tron other data structures initialized from the parent parser. You may then
    727          1.1  tron use <code><a href= "#XML_Parse" >XML_Parse</a></code> or <code><a
    728          1.1  tron href= "#XML_ParseBuffer">XML_ParseBuffer</a></code> calls against this
    729          1.1  tron parser.  Since external entities my refer to other external entities,
    730          1.1  tron your handler should be prepared to be called recursively.</p>

   1467          1.1  tron handling of the external entity reference.  Returning
   1468          1.1  tron <code>XML_STATUS_ERROR</code> indicates failure, and causes the
   1469          1.1  tron calling parser to return an
   1470          1.1  tron <code>XML_ERROR_EXTERNAL_ENTITY_HANDLING</code> error.</p>
   1471          1.1  tron 
   1472          1.1  tron <p>Second, instead of having the user data as its first argument, it
   1473          1.1  tron receives the parser that encountered the entity reference. This, along
   1474          1.1  tron with the context parameter, may be used as arguments to a call to
   1475          1.1  tron <code><a href= "#XML_ExternalEntityParserCreate"
   1476          1.1  tron >XML_ExternalEntityParserCreate</a></code>.  Using the returned
   1477          1.1  tron parser, the body of the external entity can be recursively parsed.</p>
   1478          1.1  tron 
   1479          1.1  tron <p>Since this handler may be called recursively, it should not be saving
