Class EventReaderDelegate

java.lang.Object
javax.xml.stream.util.EventReaderDelegate
All Implemented Interfaces:
Iterator<Object>, XMLEventReader
public class EventReaderDelegate extends Object implements XMLEventReader
This is the base class for deriving an XMLEventReader filter. This class is designed to sit between an XMLEventReader and an application's XMLEventReader. By default each method does nothing but call the corresponding method on the parent interface.
Since:
1.6

      public EventReaderDelegate()
      Construct an empty filter with no parent.

    • EventReaderDelegate

    • setParent

      public void setParent(XMLEventReader reader)
      Set the parent of this instance.
      Parameters:
      reader - the new parent

    • getParent

      public XMLEventReader getParent()
      Get the parent of this instance.
      Returns:
      the parent or null if none is set

    • nextEvent

      public XMLEvent nextEvent() throws XMLStreamException
      Description copied from interface: XMLEventReader
      Gets the next XMLEvent. The initial event is StartDocument.
      Specified by:
      nextEvent in interface XMLEventReader
      Returns:
      the next XMLEvent
      Throws:
      XMLStreamException - if there is an error with the underlying XML.

    • next

      public Object next()
      Description copied from interface: Iterator
      Returns the next element in the iteration.
      Specified by:
      next in interface Iterator<Object>
      Returns:
      the next element in the iteration

    • hasNext

      public boolean hasNext()
      Description copied from interface: XMLEventReader
      Check if there are more events. Returns true if there are more events and false otherwise.
      Specified by:
      hasNext in interface Iterator<Object>
      Specified by:
      hasNext in interface XMLEventReader
      Returns:
      true if the event reader has more events, false otherwise

    • peek

      public XMLEvent peek() throws XMLStreamException
      Description copied from interface: XMLEventReader
      Check the next XMLEvent without reading it from the stream. Returns null if the stream is at EOF or has no more XMLEvents. A call to peek() will be equal to the next return of next().
      Specified by:
      peek in interface XMLEventReader
      Returns:
      the next XMLEvent
      Throws:
      XMLStreamException - if an error occurs
      See Also:

    • close

      public void close() throws XMLStreamException
      Description copied from interface: XMLEventReader
      Frees any resources associated with this Reader. This method does not close the underlying input source.
      Specified by:
      close in interface XMLEventReader
      Throws:
      XMLStreamException - if there are errors freeing associated resources

    • getElementText

      public String getElementText() throws XMLStreamException
      Description copied from interface: XMLEventReader
      Reads the content of a text-only element. Precondition: the current event is START_ELEMENT. Postcondition: The current event is the corresponding END_ELEMENT.
      Specified by:
      getElementText in interface XMLEventReader
      Returns:
      the text of the element
      Throws:
      XMLStreamException - if the current event is not a START_ELEMENT or if a non text element is encountered

    • nextTag

      public XMLEvent nextTag() throws XMLStreamException
      Description copied from interface: XMLEventReader
      Skips any insignificant space events until a START_ELEMENT or END_ELEMENT is reached. If anything other than space characters are encountered, an exception is thrown. This method should be used when processing element-only content because the parser is not able to recognize ignorable whitespace if the DTD is missing or not interpreted.
      Specified by:
      nextTag in interface XMLEventReader
      Returns:
      a START_ELEMENT or END_ELEMENT
      Throws:
      XMLStreamException - if anything other than space characters are encountered

    • getProperty

      public Object getProperty(String name) throws IllegalArgumentException
      Description copied from interface: XMLEventReader
      Get the value of a feature/property from the underlying implementation
      Specified by:
      getProperty in interface XMLEventReader
      Parameters:
      name - The name of the property
      Returns:
      The value of the property
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if the property is not supported
