Kamp<p>Expat is a stream-oriented parser. You register callback (or 1985bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamphandler) functions with the parser and then start feeding it the 1995bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampdocument. As the parser recognizes parts of the document, it will 2005bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampcall the appropriate handler for that part (if you've registered one.) 2015bb6a25fSPoul-Henning KampThe document is fed to the parser in pieces, so you can start parsing 2025bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampbefore you have all the document. This also allows you to parse really 2035bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamphuge documents that won't fit into memory.</p> 2045bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp 2055bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp<p>Expat can be intimidating due to the many kinds of handlers and 2065bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampoptions you can set. But you only need to learn four functions in 2075bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamporder to do 90% of what you'll want to do with it:</p> 2085bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp 2095bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp<dl> 2105bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp 2115bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp<dt><code><a href= "#XML_ParserCreate" 2125bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp >XML_ParserCreate</a></code></dt> 2135bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp <dd>Create a new parser object.</dd> 2145bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp 2155bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp<dt><code><a href= "#XML_SetElementHandler" 2165bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp >XML_SetElementHandler</a></code></dt> 2175bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp <dd>Set handlers for start and end tags.</dd> 2185bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp 2195bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp<dt><code><a href= "#XML_SetCharacterDataHandler" 2205bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp >XML_SetCharacterDataHandler</a></code></dt> 2215bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp <dd>Set handler for text.</dd> 2225bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp 2235bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp<dt><code><a href= "#XML_Parse" 2245bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp >XML_Parse</a></code></dt> 2255bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp <dd>Pass a buffer full of document to the parser</dd> 2265bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp</dl> 2275bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp 2285bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp<p>These functions and others are described in the <a 2295bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamphref="#reference">reference</a> part of this document.

The 2355bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampprogram <a href="../examples/outline.c">outline.c</a> prints an 2365bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampelement outline, indenting child elements to distinguish them from the 2375bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampparent element that contains them. The start handler does all the 2385bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampwork. It prints two indenting spaces for every level of ancestor 2395bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampelements, then it prints the element and attribute 2405bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampinformation. Finally it increments the global <code>Depth</code> 2415bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampvariable.</p> 2425bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp 2435bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp<pre class="eg"> 2445bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampint Depth; 2455bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp 246220ed979SColeman Kanevoid XMLCALL 2475bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampstart(void *data, const char *el, const char **attr) { 2485bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp int i; 2495bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp 2505bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp for (i = 0; i < Depth; i++) 2515bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp printf(" "); 2525bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp 2535bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp printf("%s", el); 2545bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp 2555bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp for (i = 0; attr[i]; i += 2) { 2565bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp printf(" %s='%s'", attr[i], attr[i + 1]); 2575bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp } 2585bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp 2595bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp printf("\n"); 2605bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp Depth++; 2615bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp} /* End of start handler */ 2625bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp</pre> 2635bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp 2645bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp<p>The end tag simply does the bookkeeping work of decrementing 2655bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp<code>Depth</code>.</p> 2665bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp<pre class="eg"> 267220ed979SColeman Kanevoid XMLCALL 2685bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampend(void *data, const char *el) { 2695bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp Depth--; 2705bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp} /* End of end handler */ 2715bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp</pre> 2725bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp 273220ed979SColeman Kane<p>Note the <code>XMLCALL</code> annotation used for the callbacks. 274220ed979SColeman KaneThis is used to ensure that the Expat and the callbacks are using the 275220ed979SColeman Kanesame calling convention in case the compiler options used for Expat 276220ed979SColeman Kaneitself and the client code are different.

There are <a 5025bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamphref="#creation">three functions</a> in the Expat API for creating a 5035bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampparser object. However, only two of these (<code><a href= 5045bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp"#XML_ParserCreate" >XML_ParserCreate</a></code> and <code><a href= 5055bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp"#XML_ParserCreateNS" >XML_ParserCreateNS</a></code>) can be used for 5065bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampconstructing a parser for a top-level document. The object returned 5075bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampby these functions is an opaque pointer (i.e. "expat.h" declares it as 5085bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampvoid *) to data with further internal structure. In order to free the 5095bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampmemory associated with this object you must call <code><a href= 5105bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp"#XML_ParserFree" >XML_ParserFree</a></code>. Note that if you have 511220ed979SColeman Kaneprovided any <a href="#userdata">user data</a> that gets stored in the 5125bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampparser, then your application is responsible for freeing it prior to 5135bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampcalling <code>XML_ParserFree</code>.</p> 5145bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp 5155bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp<p>The objects returned by the parser creation functions are good for 5165bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampparsing only one XML document or external parsed entity. If your 5175bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampapplication needs to parse many XML documents, then it needs to create 5185bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampa parser object for each one. The best way to deal with this is to 5195bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampcreate a higher level object that contains all the default 5205bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampinitialization you want for your parser objects.</p> 5215bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp 5225bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp<p>Walking through a document hierarchy with a stream oriented parser 5235bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampwill require a good stack mechanism in order to keep track of current 5245bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampcontext. For instance, to answer the simple question, "What element 5255bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampdoes this text belong to?" requires a stack, since the parser may have 5265bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampdescended into other elements that are children of the current one and 5275bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamphas encountered this text on the way out.</p> 5285bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp 5295bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp<p>The things you're likely to want to keep on a stack are the 5305bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampcurrently opened element and it's attributes. You push this 5315bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampinformation onto the stack in the start handler and you pop it off in 5325bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampthe end handler.</p> 5335bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp 5345bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kamp<p>For some tasks, it is sufficient to just keep information on what 5355bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampthe depth of the stack is (or would be if you had one.) The outline 5365bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampprogram shown above presents one example. Another such task would be 5375bb6a25fSPoul-Henning Kampskipping over a complete element.
