Detailed Description

View in nbviewer Open in SWAN ROOT implementation of a XML DOM Parser

This is an example of how Dom Parser walks the DOM tree recursively. This example will parse any xml file.

To run this program

.x DOMRecursive.C+

Requires: person.xml

#define gROOT
Definition: TROOT.h:414
virtual TXMLDocument * GetXMLDocument() const
Returns the TXMLDocument.
Definition: TDOMParser.cxx:144
virtual Int_t ParseFile(const char *filename)
Parse the XML file where filename is the XML file name.
Definition: TDOMParser.cxx:70
A doubly linked list.
Definition: TList.h:44
Basic string class.
Definition: TString.h:131
TXMLAttribute is the attribute of an Element.

const char * GetValue() const
Definition: TXMLAttr.h:33
const char * GetName() const
Returns name of object.

TList * GetAttributes()
Returns a list of node's attribute if any, returns 0 if no attribute.
Definition: TXMLNode.cxx:108
const char * GetContent() const
Returns the content if any, or 0.
Definition: TXMLNode.cxx:97
@ kXMLElementNode
Definition: TXMLNode.h:39
@ kXMLCommentNode
Definition: TXMLNode.h:42
@ kXMLTextNode
Definition: TXMLNode.h:41
TXMLNode * GetNextNode()
Returns the next sibling XMLNode in the DOM tree, if any return 0 if no next node.
Definition: TXMLNode.cxx:130
TXMLNode * GetChildren()
Returns the node's child if any, returns 0 if no child.
Definition: TXMLNode.cxx:74
const char * GetNodeName() const
Returns the node's name.
Definition: TXMLNode.cxx:66
Bool_t HasAttributes() const
Returns true if Element node has attribute.
Definition: TXMLNode.cxx:198
EXMLElementType GetNodeType() const
Returns the node's type.
Definition: TXMLNode.cxx:58
void SetValidate(Bool_t val=kTRUE)
The parser will validate the xml file if val = true.
