XMLPullParserConfiguration (Smooks 2.0.0-RC4 API)

All Superinterfaces:

XMLComponentManager, XMLParserConfiguration

All Known Implementing Classes:

DTDConfiguration, IntegratedParserConfiguration, NonValidatingConfiguration, SchemaParsingConfig, SecureProcessingConfiguration, SecurityConfiguration, SoftReferenceSymbolTableConfiguration, StandardParserConfiguration, XIncludeAwareParserConfiguration, XIncludeParserConfiguration, XML11Configuration, XML11DTDConfiguration, XML11NonValidatingConfiguration, XMLGrammarCachingConfiguration, XPointerParserConfiguration
```
public interface XMLPullParserConfiguration
extends XMLParserConfiguration
```
Represents a parser configuration that can be used as the configuration for a "pull" parser. A pull parser allows the application to drive the parser instead of having document information events "pushed" to the registered handlers.
A pull parser using this type of configuration first calls the setInputSource method. After the input source is set, the pull parser repeatedly calls the parse(boolean):boolean method. This method returns a value of true if there is more to parse in the document.
Calling the parse(XMLInputSource) is equivalent to setting the input source and calling the parse(boolean):boolean method with a "complete" value of true.

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`void`	`cleanup()`	If the application decides to terminate parsing before the xml document is fully parsed, the application should call this method to free any resource allocated during parsing.
`boolean`	`parse(boolean complete)`	Parses the document in a pull parsing fashion.
`void`	`setInputSource(XMLInputSource inputSource)`	Sets the input source for the document to parse.

```
void setInputSource(XMLInputSource inputSource)
             throws XMLConfigurationException,
                    IOException
```
    Sets the input source for the document to parse.
    
    Parameters:
    
    inputSource - The document's input source.
    
    Throws:
    
    XMLConfigurationException - Thrown if there is a configuration error when initializing the parser.
    
    IOException - Thrown on I/O error.

  - parse
```
boolean parse(boolean complete)
       throws XNIException,
              IOException
```
    Parses the document in a pull parsing fashion.
    
    Parameters:
    
    complete - True if the pull parser should parse the remaining document completely.
    
    Returns:
    
    True if there is more document to parse.
    
    Throws:
    
    XNIException - Any XNI exception, possibly wrapping another exception.
    
    IOException - An IO exception from the parser, possibly from a byte stream or character stream supplied by the parser.
    
    See Also:
    
    setInputSource(org.smooks.engine.delivery.sax.ng.org.apache.xerces.xni.parser.XMLInputSource)
  - cleanup
```
void cleanup()
```
    If the application decides to terminate parsing before the xml document is fully parsed, the application should call this method to free any resource allocated during parsing. For example, close all opened streams.
