[править] Подробное описание
The QXmlStreamReader class provides a fast well-formed XML parser with a simple streaming API.
QXmlStreamReader is a faster and more convenient replacement for Qt's own SAX parser (see QXmlSimpleReader), and in some cases also for applications that would previously use a DOM tree (see QDomDocument). QXmlStreamReader reads data either from a QIODevice (see setDevice()), or from a raw QByteArray (see addData()). With QXmlStreamWriter, Qt provides a related class for writing XML.
The basic concept of a stream reader is to report an XML document as a stream of tokens, similar to SAX. The main difference between QXmlStreamReader and SAX is how these XML tokens are reported. With SAX, the application must provide handlers that receive so-called XML events from the parser at the parser's convenience. With QXmlStreamReader, the application code itself drives the loop and pulls tokens from the reader one after another as it needs them. This is done by calling readNext(), which makes the reader read from the input stream until it has completed a new token, and then returns its tokenType(). A set of convenient functions like isStartElement() or text() then allows to examine this token, and to obtain information about what has been read. The big advantage of the pulling approach is the possibility to build recursive descent parsers, meaning you can split your XML parsing code easily into different methods or classes. This makes it easy to keep track of the application's own state when parsing XML.
A typical loop with QXmlStreamReader looks like this:
QXmlStreamReader xml; ... while (!xml.atEnd()) { xml.readNext(); ... // do processing } if (xml.hasError()) { ... // do error handling }
QXmlStreamReader is a well-formed XML 1.0 parser that does not include external parsed entities. As long as no error occurs, the application code can thus be assured that the data provided by the stream reader satisfies the W3C's criteria for well-formed XML. For example, you can be certain that all tags are indeed nested and closed properly, that references to internal entities have been replaced with the correct replacement text, and that attributes have been normalized or added according to the internal subset of the DTD.
If an error does occur while parsing, atEnd() returns true and error() returns the kind of error that occurred. hasError() can also be used to check whether an error has occurred. The functions errorString(), lineNumber(), columnNumber(), and characterOffset() make it possible to generate a verbose human-understandable error or warning message. In order to simplify application code, QXmlStreamReader contains a raiseError() mechanism that makes it possible to raise custom errors that then trigger the same error handling code path.
The QXmlStream Bookmarks Example illustrates how to use the recursive descent technique with a subclassed stream reader to read an XML bookmark file (XBEL).
[править] Namespaces
QXmlStream understands and resolves XML namespaces. E.g. in case of a StartElement, namespaceUri() returns the namespace the element is in, and name() returns the element's local name. The combination of namespaceUri and name uniquely identifies an element. If a namespace prefix was not declared in the XML entities parsed by the reader, the namespaceUri is empty.
If you parse XML data that does not utilize namespaces according to the XML specification or doesn't use namespaces at all, you can use the element's qualifiedName() instead. A qualified name is the element's prefix followed by colon followed by the element's local name - exactly like the element appears in the raw XML data. Since the mapping namespaceUri to prefix is neither unique nor universal, qualifiedName() should be avoided for namespace-compliant XML data.
In order to parse standalone documents that do use undeclared namespace prefixes, you can turn off namespace processing completely with the namespaceProcessing property.
[править] Incremental parsing
QXmlStreamReader is an incremental parser. If you can't parse the entire input in one go (for example, it is huge, or is being delivered over a network connection), data can be fed to the parser in pieces. If the reader runs out of data before the document has been parsed completely, it reports a PrematureEndOfDocumentError. Once more data has arrived, either through the device or because it has been added with addData(), it recovers from that error and continues parsing on the next call to read().
For example, if you read data from the network using QHttp, you would connect its readyRead() signal to a custom slot. In this slot, you read all available data with readAll() and pass it to the XML stream reader using addData(). Then you call your custom parsing function that reads the XML events from the reader.
[править] Performance and memory consumption
QXmlStreamReader is memory-conservative by design, since it doesn't store the entire XML document tree in memory, but only the current token at the time it is reported. In addition, QXmlStreamReader avoids the many small string allocations that it normally takes to map an XML document to a convenient and Qt-ish API. It does this by reporting all string data as QStringRef rather than real QString objects. QStringRef is a thin wrapper around QString substrings that provides a subset of the QString API without the memory allocation and reference-counting overhead. Calling toString() on any of those objects returns an equivalent real QString object.
[править] Описание типов членов
[править] enum QXmlStreamReader::Error
This enum specifies different error cases
Constant | Value | Description |
---|---|---|
QXmlStreamReader::NoError | 0 | No error has occurred. |
QXmlStreamReader::CustomError | 2 | A custom error has been raised with raiseError() |
QXmlStreamReader::NotWellFormedError | 3 | The parser internally raised an error due to the read XML not being well-formed. |
QXmlStreamReader::PrematureEndOfDocumentError | 4 | The input stream ended before the document was parsed completely. This error can be recovered from. |
QXmlStreamReader::UnexpectedElementError | 1 | The parser encountered an element that was different to those it expected. |
[править] enum QXmlStreamReader::TokenType
This enum specifies the type of token the reader just read.
Constant | Value | Description |
---|---|---|
QXmlStreamReader::NoToken | 0 | The reader has not yet read anything. |
QXmlStreamReader::Invalid | 1 | An error has occurred, reported in error() and errorString(). |
QXmlStreamReader::StartDocument | 2 | The reader reports the start of the document. If the document is declared standalone, isStandaloneDocument() returns true; otherwise it returns false. |
QXmlStreamReader::EndDocument | 3 | The reader reports the end of the document. |
QXmlStreamReader::StartElement | 4 | The reader reports the start of an element with namespaceUri() and name(). Empty elements are also reported as StartElement, followed directly by EndElement. The convenience function readElementText() can be called to concatenate all content until the corresponding EndElement.

[править] QStringRef QXmlStreamReader::qualifiedName () const
Returns the qualified name of a StartElement or EndElement;
A qualified name is the raw name of an element in the XML data. It consists of the namespace prefix, followed by colon, followed by the element's local name. Since the namespace prefix is not unique (the same prefix can point to different namespaces and different prefixes can point to the same namespace), you shouldn't use qualifiedName(), but the resolved namespaceUri() and the attribute's local name().
See also name() and namespaceUri().
[править] void QXmlStreamReader::raiseError ( const QString & message = QString() )
Raises a custom error with an optional error message.
See also error() and errorString().
[править] QString QXmlStreamReader::readElementText ()
Convenience function to be called in case a StartElement was read. Reads until the corresponding EndElement and returns all text in-between. In case of no error, the token after having called this function is EndElement.
The function concatenates text() when it reads either Characters or EntityReference tokens, but skips ProcessingInstruction and Comment. In case anything else is read before reaching EndElement, the function returns what it read so far and raises an UnexpectedElementError. If the current token is not StartElement, an empty string is returned.
[править] TokenType QXmlStreamReader::readNext ()
Reads the next token and returns its type.
If an error() has been reported, reading is no longer possible. In this case, atEnd() always returns true, and this function will do nothing but return Invalid.
The one exception to this rule are errors of type PrematureEndOfDocumentError. Subsequent calls to atEnd() and readNext() will resume this error type and try to read from the device again. This iterative parsing approach makes sense if you can't or don't want to read the entire data in one go, for example, if it is huge, or it is being delivered over a network connection
See also tokenType() and tokenString().
[править] void QXmlStreamReader::setDevice ( QIODevice * device )
Sets the current device to device. Setting the device resets the stream to its initial state.
See also device() and clear().
[править] QStringRef QXmlStreamReader::text () const
Returns the text of Characters, Comment, DTD, or EntityReference.
[править] QString QXmlStreamReader::tokenString () const
Returns the reader's current token as string.
See also tokenType().
[править] TokenType QXmlStreamReader::tokenType () const
Returns the type of the current token.
The current token can also be queried with the convenience functions isStartDocument(), isEndDocument(), isStartElement(), isEndElement(), isCharacters(), isComment(), isDTD(), isEntityReference(), and isProcessingInstruction()
See also tokenString().
