public abstract class XMLDeclRecognizer

extends java.lang.Object

Abstract base class for encoding recognizers. When we encounter an external entity, including the document entity, and do not know what the encoding of the underlying byte stream is, we need to look at the contents of the stream to find out. We do this by asking a set of "recognizers" to look at the stream data and if the recognizer can understand the encoding it will try to read an XML or text declaration, if present, and construct the appropriate reader for that encoding. The recognizer subclasses will typically use the prescanXMLDeclOrTextDecl() method if the stream looks like it does begin with such a declaration using a temporary reader that can support the calls needed to scan through the encoding declaration.

This class is based on an implementation from the Apache XML Project. In future releases the XML parser, XSLT processor, and associated classes will likely be updated to be based on a later version of the Apache implementations. Since Apache does not guarantee backwards compatibility between versions of their software, we cannot guarantee backwards compatibility of any of the classes contained in the weblogic.apache package or sub-packages.

Method Detail

registerDefaultRecognizers

public static void registerDefaultRecognizers(java.util.Stack recognizerStack)

Register the standard recognizers.

Parameters:

recognizerStack - The stack of recognizers used by the parser.

recognize

public abstract XMLEntityHandler.EntityReader recognize(XMLEntityReaderFactory readerFactory,
                                                        XMLEntityHandler entityHandler,
                                                        XMLErrorReporter errorReporter,
                                                        boolean sendCharDataAsCharArray,
                                                        StringPool stringPool,
                                                        ChunkyByteArray data,
                                                        boolean xmlDecl,
                                                        boolean allowJavaEncodingName)
                                                 throws java.lang.Exception

Subclasses override this method to support recognizing their encodings.

Parameters:

readerFactory - the factory object to use when constructing the entity reader.

entityHandler - the entity handler to get entity readers from

errorReporter - where to report errors

sendCharDataAsCharArray - true if the reader should use char arrays, not string handles.

stringPool - the StringPool to put strings in

data - initial bytes to perform recognition on

xmlDecl - true if attempting to recognize fron an XMLDecl, false if trying to recognize from a TextDecl.

allowJavaEncodingName - true if Java's encoding names are allowed, false if they are not.

Returns:

The reader that will be used to process the contents of the data stream.

Throws:

java.lang.Exception -

prescanXMLDeclOrTextDecl

protected int prescanXMLDeclOrTextDecl(XMLEntityHandler.EntityReader entityReader,
                                       boolean xmlDecl)
                                throws java.lang.Exception

Support for getting the value of an EncodingDecl using an XMLReader. This is the minimal logic from the scanner to recognize an XMLDecl or TextDecl using the XMLReader interface.

Parameters:

entityReader - data source for prescan

xmlDecl - true if attempting to recognize from an XMLDecl, false if trying to recognize from a TextDecl.

Returns:

StringPool handle to the name of the encoding recognized

Throws:

java.lang.Exception -
