Hi,

My original work only survived for the XMLDOMParser. See this example:
http://ws.stfx.eu/NK2WLSW99X10
(paste this in Spotter :))

For an XMLDOMParser, you can say that you want to instantiate a node in the DOM with an custom instance. For example, here I instantiate <NOM> with AAAName:


You are looking for something a bit different. In a way you want to associate the triggering of a specific handler when some XPath like expression is being matched for the current element. I think something like this should go in the main implementation.

Cheers,
Doru

This is more complex than that.
Because I would like to have a visitor generated from the token I give.

And this
   start
   character
   end

does not really help me.

Because in SAXHandler I have
       start
           where I should store the properties
      same in characters:
           to store the name
      end
           where I should invoke the visitor

Now it means that I should only store the information for the tag I want.
Does anybody already did that and publish it?
I know doru did that in the past.
I will try.

Hi,

The qualified name in function startElement: aQualifiedName attributes: aDictionary, will be FILMS and after FILM and after TITRE,...etc...
So, you have to tell to your shouldVisit: method to accept TITRE too and get in and after you should implement characters: to get the content on the tag.

Hi

Yesterday I started to hack a smart SAX handler. The idea is that I want to just
specify the tags I want to visit and the SAX handler should invoke (generated)
visit methods. Like that I can easily get visitors on XML domain.

Here is an example of what I did.

     | h |
     h := SmartSAXHandler new
                 visitor: (MyFilmVisitor new visitTags: #(FILM ROLE));
                 on: FileSystem workingDirectory / 'FILMS.XML'.
     h parseDocument.
     ^ h



SmartSAXHAndler >> startElement: aQualifiedName attributes: aDictionary

     (visitor shouldVisit: aQualifiedName)
         ifTrue: [
                 visitor
                     perform: (visitor createdVisitSelector: aQualifiedName)
                     with: aQualifiedName
                     with: aDictionary
         ]


Object subclass: #GenericTagSAXVisitor
     instanceVariableNames: 'visitTag visitTags'
     classVariableNames: ''
     category: 'SmartXMLHandler'


GenericTagSAXVisitor>>visitTags: aCollection
     "set the tags that will lead to a call to a visitTag:with: method in the visitor"

     visitTags := aCollection collect: [ :each | each asLowercase ].
     self createVisitMethods.

and in a subclass the visit* methods automatically generated


Now I could not get when I have a <TITRE>Vertigo</TITRE> where I can get the
Vertigo information.
I redefined several methods of SAXhandler but without success.


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<FILMS>
   <FILM annee="1958">
     <TITRE>Vertigo</TITRE>
     <GENRE>Drame</GENRE>
     <PAYS>USA</PAYS>
     <MES idref="3"/>
     <ROLES>
       <ROLE>
         <PRENOM>James</PRENOM>
         <NOM>Stewart</NOM>
         <INTITULE>John Ferguson</INTITULE>
       </ROLE>
       <ROLE>
         <PRENOM>Kim</PRENOM>
         <NOM>Novak</NOM>
         <INTITULE>Madeleine Elster</INTITULE>
       </ROLE>
     </ROLES>
     <RESUME>Scottie Ferguson, ancien inspecteur de police, est sujet
au vertige depuis qu'il a vu mourir son
  collegue. Elster, son ami, le charge de surveiller sa femme,
Madeleine, ayant des tendances
  suicidaires. Amoureux de la jeune femme Scottie ne remarque pas le
piege qui se trame autour
  de lui et dont il va etre la victime... </RESUME>
