Method Detail

newInstance

public static DOMBuilder newInstance()
                              throws ParserConfigurationException

Throws:

ParserConfigurationException

newInstance

public static DOMBuilder newInstance(boolean validating,
                                     boolean namespaceAware)
                              throws ParserConfigurationException

Throws:

ParserConfigurationException

parse

public static Document parse(Reader reader)
                      throws SAXException,
                             IOException,
                             ParserConfigurationException

Creates a DocumentBuilder and uses it to parse the XML text read from the given reader. A non-validating, namespace aware parser is used.

Parameters:

reader - the reader to read the XML text from

Returns:

the root node of the parsed tree of Nodes

Throws:

SAXException - Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.

IOException - An IO exception from the parser, possibly from a byte stream or character stream supplied by the application.

ParserConfigurationException - if a DocumentBuilder cannot be created which satisfies the configuration requested.

parse

public static Document parse(Reader reader,
                             boolean validating,
                             boolean namespaceAware)
                      throws SAXException,
                             IOException,
                             ParserConfigurationException

Creates a DocumentBuilder and uses it to parse the XML text read from the given reader, allowing parser validation and namespace awareness to be controlled.

Parameters:

reader - the reader to read the XML text from

validating - whether to validate the XML

namespaceAware - whether the parser should be namespace aware

Returns:

the root node of the parsed tree of Nodes

Throws:

SAXException - Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.

IOException - An IO exception from the parser, possibly from a byte stream or character stream supplied by the application.

ParserConfigurationException - if a DocumentBuilder cannot be created which satisfies the configuration requested.

parseText

public Document parseText(String text)
                   throws SAXException,
                          IOException,
                          ParserConfigurationException

A helper method to parse the given text as XML.

Parameters:

text - the XML text to parse

Returns:

the root node of the parsed tree of Nodes

Throws:

SAXException - Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.

IOException - An IO exception from the parser, possibly from a byte stream or character stream supplied by the application.

ParserConfigurationException - if a DocumentBuilder cannot be created which satisfies the configuration requested.
