public interface XMLDTDContentModelHandler
The DTD content model handler interface defines callback methods to report information items in DTD content models of an element declaration. Parser components interested in DTD content model information implement this interface and are registered as the DTD content model handler on the DTD content model source.

    • SEPARATOR_CHOICE

      static final short SEPARATOR_CHOICE
      A choice separator for children and mixed content models. This separator is used to specify that the allowed child is one of a collection.

      For example:

       <!ELEMENT elem (foo|bar)>
       <!ELEMENT elem (foo|bar+)>
       <!ELEMENT elem (foo|bar|baz)>
       <!ELEMENT elem (#PCDATA|foo|bar)*>
       
      See Also:
    • SEPARATOR_SEQUENCE

      static final short SEPARATOR_SEQUENCE
      A sequence separator for children content models. This separator is used to specify that the allowed children must follow in the specified sequence.

       <!ELEMENT elem (foo,bar)>
       <!ELEMENT elem (foo,bar*)>
       <!ELEMENT elem (foo,bar,baz)>
       
      See Also:
    • OCCURS_ZERO_OR_ONE

      static final short OCCURS_ZERO_OR_ONE
      This occurrence count limits the element, choice, or sequence in a children content model to zero or one. In other words, the child is optional.

      For example:

       <!ELEMENT elem (foo?)>
       
      See Also:
    • OCCURS_ZERO_OR_MORE

      static final short OCCURS_ZERO_OR_MORE
      This occurrence count limits the element, choice, or sequence in a children content model to zero or more. In other words, the child may appear an arbitrary number of times, or not at all. This occurrence count is also used for mixed content models.

      For example:

       <!ELEMENT elem (foo*)>
       <!ELEMENT elem (#PCDATA|foo|bar)*>
       
      See Also:
    • OCCURS_ONE_OR_MORE

      static final short OCCURS_ONE_OR_MORE
      This occurrence count limits the element, choice, or sequence in a children content model to one or more. In other words, the child may appear an arbitrary number of times, but must appear at least once.

      For example:

       <!ELEMENT elem (foo+)>

      void startContentModel(String elementName, Augmentations augmentations) throws XNIException
      The start of a content model. Depending on the type of the content model, specific methods may be called between the call to the startContentModel method and the call to the endContentModel method.
      Parameters:
      elementName - The name of the element.
      augmentations - Additional information that may include infoset augmentations.
      Throws:
      XNIException - Thrown by handler to signal an error.
    • any

      void any(Augmentations augmentations) throws XNIException
      A content model of ANY.
      Parameters:
      augmentations - Additional information that may include infoset augmentations.
      Throws:
      XNIException - Thrown by handler to signal an error.

    • startGroup

      void startGroup(Augmentations augmentations) throws XNIException
      A start of either a mixed or children content model. A mixed content model will immediately be followed by a call to the pcdata() method. A children content model will contain additional groups and/or elements.
      Parameters:
      augmentations - Additional information that may include infoset augmentations.
      Throws:

      The appearance of "#PCDATA" within a group signifying a mixed content model. This method will be the first called following the content model's startGroup().
      Parameters:
      augmentations - Additional information that may include infoset augmentations.
