All Known Implementing Classes:

XMLOptionsImpl

public interface XMLOptions

This interface allows user specify various XML deserialization and serialization options

Method Detail

setProcessAnyXML

void setProcessAnyXML(boolean processAnyXML)

This options allows the user to load and deserialize arbitrary XML (i.e. XML for which schema is not specified). The default is false, unless set to true explicitly. To process schemaLocation/noNamespaceSchemaLocation attributes, user have to set setProcessSchemaLocations(boolean) to true.

Parameters:

processAnyXML - whether to process arbitrary XML.

XMLResource.getEObjectToExtensionMap()

isProcessAnyXML

boolean isProcessAnyXML()

Returns:

processAnyXML value

setEcoreBuilder

void setEcoreBuilder(EcoreBuilder ecoreBuilder)

This option allows the user to specify implementation of EcoreBuilder that will be used to process schema locations to build Ecore dynamically. If this option is not set and either getExternalSchemaLocations() is set or isProcessSchemaLocations() returns true default EcoreBuilder will be created.

getEcoreBuilder

EcoreBuilder getEcoreBuilder()

Returns:

EcoreBuilder

setExternalSchemaLocations

void setExternalSchemaLocations(java.util.Map<java.lang.String,URI> schemaLocations)

The XML Schema Recommendation explicitly states that the inclusion of schemaLocation/noNamespaceSchemaLocation attributes is only a hint; it does not mandate that these attributes must be used to locate schemas. This option allows the user to specify schemas to use. If the targetNamespace of a schema (specified using this property) matches the targetNamespace of a schema occurring in the instance document in schemaLocation attribute, the schema specified by the user using this property will be used (i.e., the schemaLocation attribute in the instance document).

Parameters:

schemaLocations - - map of target namespace to schema location of type org.eclipse.emf.common.util.URI

getExternalSchemaLocations

java.util.Map<java.lang.String,URI> getExternalSchemaLocations()

Returns:

external schema locations

setProcessSchemaLocations

void setProcessSchemaLocations(boolean processSchemaLocations)

This options allows the user to specify that the schemaLocation/noNamespaceSchemaLocation attributes occurring in the instance document will be processed to convert XSD(s) to Ecore file(s). If this option is specified together with externalSchemaLocation option, the schemas specified in externalSchemaLocation will take precedence.

Parameters:

processSchemaLocations -

isProcessSchemaLocations

boolean isProcessSchemaLocations()

Returns:

processSchemaLocations
