Interface IAttributes

Interface for a list of XML attributes.

Namespace: Sax
Assembly: Lucene.Net.Benchmark.dll
Syntax
public interface IAttributes
Remarks

This module, both source code and documentation, is in the Public Domain, and comes with NO WARRANTY. Seehttp://www.saxproject.org for further information.

This interface allows access to a list of attributes in three different ways:
  1. by attribute index;
  2. by Namespace-qualified name; or
  3. by qualified (prefixed) name.

The list will not contain attributes that were declared #IMPLIED but not specified in the start tag. It will also not contain attributes used as Namespace declarations(xmlns*) unless the http://xml.org/sax/features/namespace-prefixes feature is set to true (it is false by default). Because SAX2 conforms to the original "Namespaces in XML" recommendation, it normally does not give namespace declaration attributes a namespace URI.

Some SAX2 parsers may support using an optional feature flag (http://xml.org/sax/features/xmlns-uris) to request that those attributes be given URIs, conforming to a later backwards-incompatible revision of that recommendation. (The attribute's "local name" will be the prefix, or "xmlns" when defining a default element namespace.) For portability, handler code should always resolve that conflict, rather than requiring parsers that can change the setting of that feature flag. If the namespace-prefixes feature (see above) is false, access by qualified name may not be available; if the
http://xml.org/sax/features/namespaces
feature is false, access by Namespace-qualified names may not be available.

This interface replaces the now-deprecated SAX1 { @link org.xml.sax.AttributeList AttributeList } interface, which does not contain Namespace support.In addition to Namespace support, it adds the getIndex methods (below).

The order of attributes in the list is unspecified, and will vary from implementation to implementation.

Properties

Length

Return the number of attributes in the list.

Once you know the number of attributes, you can iterate through the list.
Declaration
int Length { get; }
Property Value
Type Description
int

The number of attributes in the list.

GetType(int)

Look up an attribute's type by index.

Declaration
string GetType(int index)
Parameters
Type Name Description
int index

The attribute index (zero-based).
Returns
Type Description
string

The attribute's type as a string, or null if the index is out of range.
Remarks

The attribute type is one of the strings "CDATA", "ID", "IDREF", "IDREFS", "NMTOKEN", "NMTOKENS", "ENTITY", "ENTITIES", or "NOTATION" (always in upper case).

If the parser has not read a declaration for the attribute, or if the parser does not report attribute types, then it must return the value "CDATA" as stated in the XML 1.0 Recommendation (clause 3.3.3, "Attribute-Value Normalization").

For an enumerated attribute that is not a notation, the parser will report the type as "NMTOKEN".
