Class XmlDocumentHandler

java.lang.Object

org.xml.sax.helpers.DefaultHandler

gate.xml.XmlPositionCorrectionHandler

gate.xml.XmlDocumentHandler

All Implemented Interfaces:

ContentHandler, DTDHandler, EntityResolver, ErrorHandler

public class XmlDocumentHandler
extends XmlPositionCorrectionHandler

Implements the behaviour of the XML reader Methods of an object of this class are called by the SAX parser when events will appear. The idea is to parse the XML document and construct Gate annotations objects. This class also will replace the content of the Gate document with a new one containing only text from the XML document.

Constructor Detail

XmlDocumentHandler

public XmlDocumentHandler(Document aDocument,
                  Map<String,String> aMarkupElementsMap,
                  Map<String,String> anElement2StringMap)

Constructs a XmlDocumentHandler object. The annotationSet set will be the default one taken from the gate document.

Parameters:

aDocument - the Gate document that will be processed.

aMarkupElementsMap - this map contains the elements name that we want to create.

anElement2StringMap - this map contains the strings that will be added to the text contained by the key element.

XmlDocumentHandler

public XmlDocumentHandler(Document aDocument,
                  Map<String,String> aMarkupElementsMap,
                  Map<String,String> anElement2StringMap,
                  AnnotationSet anAnnotationSet)

Constructs a XmlDocumentHandler object.

Parameters:

aDocument - the Gate document that will be processed.

aMarkupElementsMap - this map contains the elements name that we want to create.

anElement2StringMap - this map contains the strings that will be added to the text contained by the key element.

anAnnotationSet - is the annotation set that will be filled when the document was processed

Method Detail

setRepositioningInfo

public void setRepositioningInfo(RepositioningInfo info)

Set repositioning information structure refference. If you set this refference to null information wouldn't be collected.

getRepositioningInfo

public RepositioningInfo getRepositioningInfo()

Return current RepositioningInfo object

setAmpCodingInfo

public void setAmpCodingInfo(RepositioningInfo info)

Set repositioning information structure refference for ampersand coding. If you set this refference to null information wouldn't be used.

getAmpCodingInfo

public RepositioningInfo getAmpCodingInfo()

Return current RepositioningInfo object for ampersand coding.

startDocument

public void startDocument()
                   throws SAXException

This method is called when the SAX parser encounts the beginning of the XML document.

Specified by:

startDocument in interface ContentHandler

Overrides:

startDocument in class XmlPositionCorrectionHandler

Throws:

SAXException

endDocument

public void endDocument()
                 throws SAXException

This method is called when the SAX parser encounts the end of the XML document. Here we set the content of the gate Document to be the one generated inside this class (tmpDocContent). After that we use the colector to generate all the annotation reffering this new gate document.

Specified by:

endDocument in interface ContentHandler

Overrides:

endDocument in class DefaultHandler

Throws:

SAXException

startElement

                  throws SAXException

Specified by:

startElement in interface ContentHandler

Overrides:

startElement in class DefaultHandler
