Class TableContentHandler

java.lang.Object

uk.ac.starlink.votable.TableContentHandler

All Implemented Interfaces:

org.xml.sax.ContentHandler

public class TableContentHandler
extends java.lang.Object
implements org.xml.sax.ContentHandler

Content handler which translates SAX events into table events. It holds a TableHandler object which, if non-null, is messaged for every suitable DATA element in the input stream. Inline tables (TABLEDATA ones and FITS/BINARY/BINARY2 ones in which STREAM element contains the byte data as text children) are always messaged to the handler. Externally-referenced ones (FITS/BINARY/BINARY2 ones in which the data is located from an href attribute on the STREAM element) may either be ignored or streamed to the table handler according to the setting of the setReadHrefTables member.

Constructor Detail

TableContentHandler

public TableContentHandler(boolean strict)

Constructor.

Parameters:

strict - whether to effect a strict reading of the VOTable standard

Method Detail

setTableHandler

public void setTableHandler(TableHandler handler)

Sets the TableHandler object for this parser. If set to a non-null value, the handler will be messaged with the table metadata and data for each table (each DATA element) encountered in parsing the VOTable document.

Parameters:

handler - table handler

getTableHandler

public TableHandler getTableHandler()

Returns the TableHandler object for this parser.

Returns:

table handler

setReadHrefTables

public void setReadHrefTables(boolean readHrefs)

Sets whether href-referenced tables should be streamed to the table handler.

Parameters:

readHrefs - if true, externally-referenced tables will be messaged to the handler, if false they will be ignored

getReadHrefTables

public boolean getReadHrefTables()

Indicates whether href-referenced tables should be streamed to the table handler.

Returns:

true if externally-referenced tables will be messaged to the handler, false if they will be ignored

getLocator

public org.xml.sax.Locator getLocator()

Returns the document locator.

Returns:

locator
