XML Processing

In addition to core XML support, classes for higher level querying and manipulation of XML data are provided by the Qt XML Patterns module. In the Qt SVG module, the QSvgRenderer and QSvgGenerator classes can read and write a subset of SVG, an XML-based file format. Qt also provides helper functions that may be useful to those working with XML and XHTML: see Qt::escape() and Qt::convertFromPlainText().

Topics:

Classes for XML Processing

These classes are relevant to XML users.

QXmlStreamAttribute

Represents a single XML attribute

QXmlStreamAttributes

Represents a vector of QXmlStreamAttribute

QXmlStreamEntityDeclaration

Represents a DTD entity declaration

QXmlStreamEntityResolver

Entity resolver for a QXmlStreamReader

QXmlStreamNamespaceDeclaration

Represents a namespace declaration

QXmlStreamNotationDeclaration

Represents a DTD notation declaration

QXmlStreamReader

Fast parser for reading well-formed XML via a simple streaming API

QXmlStreamWriter

XML writer with a simple streaming API

QDomAttr

Represents one attribute of a QDomElement

QDomCDATASection

Represents an XML CDATA section

QDomCharacterData

Represents a generic string in the DOM

QDomComment

Represents an XML comment

QDomDocument

Represents an XML document

QDomDocumentFragment

Tree of QDomNodes which is not usually a complete QDomDocument

QDomDocumentType

The representation of the DTD in the document tree

QDomElement

Represents one element in the DOM tree

QDomEntity

Represents an XML entity

QDomEntityReference

Represents an XML entity reference

QDomImplementation

Information about the features of the DOM implementation

QDomNamedNodeMap

Contains a collection of nodes that can be accessed by name

QDomNode

The base class for all the nodes in a DOM tree

QDomNodeList

List of QDomNode objects

QDomNotation

Represents an XML notation

QDomProcessingInstruction

Represents an XML processing instruction

QDomText

Represents text data in the parsed XML document

QXmlAttributes

XML attributes

QXmlContentHandler

Interface to report the logical content of XML data

QXmlDTDHandler

Interface to report DTD content of XML data

QXmlDeclHandler

Interface to report declaration content of XML data

QXmlDefaultHandler

Default implementation of all the XML handler classes

QXmlEntityResolver

Interface to resolve external entities contained in XML data

QXmlErrorHandler

Interface to report errors in XML data

QXmlInputSource

The input data for the QXmlReader subclasses

QXmlLexicalHandler

Interface to report the lexical content of XML data

QXmlLocator

The XML handler classes with information about the parsing position within a file

QXmlNamespaceSupport

Helper class for XML readers which want to include namespace support

QXmlParseException

Used to report errors with the QXmlErrorHandler interface

QXmlReader

Interface for XML readers (i.e. parsers)

QXmlSimpleReader

Implementation of a simple XML parser

QAbstractMessageHandler

Callback interface for handling messages

QAbstractUriResolver

Callback interface for resolving Uniform Resource Identifiers. A Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) is a string that uniquely identifies a resource. URIs are versatile global identifiers. It is often useful to transform a URI that identifies something logical into a URI that locates something physical (a URL), or to simply map a URI to a different URI. QAbstractUriResolver::resolve() provides this functionality

QAbstractXmlNodeModel

Abstract base class for modeling non-XML data to look like XML for QXmlQuery

QXmlItem

Contains either an XML node or an atomic value

QXmlNodeModelIndex

Identifies a node in an XML node model subclassed from QAbstractXmlNodeModel

QAbstractXmlReceiver

Callback interface for transforming the output of a QXmlQuery

QSimpleXmlNodeModel

Implementation of QAbstractXmlNodeModel sufficient for many common cases

QSourceLocation

Identifies a location in a resource by URI, line, and column

QXmlFormatter

Implementation of QXmlSerializer for transforming XQuery output into formatted XML

QXmlName

Represents the name of an XML node, in an efficient, namespace-aware way. QXmlName represents the name of an XML node in a way that is both efficient and safe for comparing names. Normally, an XML node represents an XML element or attribute, but QXmlName can also represent the names of other kinds of nodes, e.g., QAbstractXmlReceiver::processingInstruction() and QAbstractXmlReceiver::namespaceBinding()

QXmlNamePool

Table of shared strings referenced by instances of QXmlName

QXmlQuery

Performs XQueries on XML data, or on non-XML data modeled to look like XML

QXmlResultItems

Iterates through the results of evaluating an XQuery in QXmlQuery

QXmlSchema

Loading and validation of a W3C XML Schema

QXmlSchemaValidator

Validates XML instance documents against a W3C XML Schema

QXmlSerializer

Implementation of QAbstractXmlReceiver for transforming XQuery output into unformatted XML
