* David Megginson | | There is an alpha version of SAX2 for Java available for download | from | | http://www.megginson.com/SAX/SAX2/ I've now done a preliminary Python translation and done most of the work on adding SAX2 features and properties to the xmlproc driver. Overall I think this is looking very good. Comments: - Should we have a CompleteHandlerBase in helpers which combines HandlerBase, DeclHandler, LexicalHandler and NamespaceHandler? - If one of the misc handlers are supported, must all the methods in it be supported? (For example, xmlproc currently won't support the CDATA callbacks in LexicalHandler.) - Should the *NamespaceDeclScope methods be called *NamespaceScope instead? It's a little less of a mouthful, at least. - Do we need to mandate a default value for namespace separator? Should it be space ( )? - Can namespace properties be tuned when namespace processing is off? - Should we add a DTDParser interface? In some cases one will only want to parse the DTD and since we have DeclHandler and DTDHandler it makes sense to me to add an interface to a DTD parser. Maybe like so: public interface DTDParser extends Configurable { public void setDTDHandler(DTDHandler handler); // used for parameter entities public void setEntityResolver(EntityResolver resolver); public void setLocale(Locale locale) throws SAXException; public void setErrorHandler(ErrorHandler handler); public void parse(InputSource source) throws SAXException, IOException; public void parse(String systemId) throws SAXException, IOException; } // Maybe we should also do something here to enable locator // support? Have a special read-only property for the locator? // (Ugly, I know.) // Features: external-param-entities // Properties: dom-node?, xml-string, DeclHandler - Where did AttributeList2 go? Also, I'll get back to the filter issue. Now I need to work on my thesis. --Lars M. xml-dev: A list for W3C XML Developers. To post, mailto:xml-dev@i...
