Class AbstractReaderSchemaFactory

java.lang.Object
  org.jdom2.input.sax.AbstractReaderSchemaFactory

All Implemented Interfaces:

XMLReaderJDOMFactory

Direct Known Subclasses:

AbstractReaderXSDFactory, XMLReaderSchemaFactory

public abstract class AbstractReaderSchemaFactory
extends java.lang.Object
implements XMLReaderJDOMFactory

This AbstractReaderSchemaFactory class returns XMLReaders configured to validate against the supplied Schema instance. The Schema could be an XSD schema or some other schema supported by SAX (e.g. RelaxNG). It takes a pre-declared

If you want to validate an XML document against the XSD references embedded in the XML itself (xsdSchemaLocation) then you do not want to use this class but rather use an alternate means like XMLReaders.XSDVALIDATING.

See the package documentation for the best alternatives.

schema - The Schema to use for validation.

Method Detail

createXMLReader

public org.xml.sax.XMLReader createXMLReader()
                                      throws JDOMException

Description copied from interface: XMLReaderJDOMFactory

Return a new XMLReader according to the implementation of this XMLReaderJDOMFactory instance. The XMLReader is expected to be a new instance that is unrelated to any other XMLReaders, and can be reused at will by SAXBuilder.

Specified by:

createXMLReader in interface XMLReaderJDOMFactory

Returns:

a new XMLReader

Throws:

JDOMException - if an XMLReader was not available.

isValidating

public boolean isValidating()

Description copied from interface: XMLReaderJDOMFactory

Does an XMLReader from this factory do more than just well-formed checks.

Specified by:

isValidating in interface XMLReaderJDOMFactory

Returns:

true if the XMLReader validates
