- xmlInputCreateUrl
- xmlInputCreateMemory
- xmlInputCreateString
- xmlInputCreateFd
- xmlInputCreateIO
- xmlInputSetEncoding
These functions don't take a parser context and work on xmlParserInputs,
replacing functions working on xmlParserInputBuffers.
xmlInputCreateUrl and xmlInputSetEncoding offer fine-grained error
handling.
Several XML_INPUT_* flags offer additional control.
Don't use a separate function to handle "complex" attributes. Validate
UTF-8 byte sequences without decoding. This should improve performance
considerably when parsing multi-byte UTF-8 sequences.
Use a string buffer to avoid unnecessary allocations and copying when
expanding entities.
Normalize attribute values in a single pass while expanding entities.
Be more lenient in recovery mode.
If no entity substitution was requested, validate entities without
expanding. Fixes#596.
Also fixes#655.
Provide a new set of functions to create xmlParserInputs. These can be
used for the document entity or from external entity loaders.
- Don't require xmlParserInputBuffer.
- All functions take a base URI.
- All functions take an encoding as string.
- xmlNewInputURL also takes a public ID.
- xmlNewInputMemory takes a size_t.
- Optimization hints for memory buffers.
Improve documentation.
Only call xmlInitParser before allocating a new parser context.
Call xmlCtxtUseOptions as early as possible.
Use in ctxt->input->entity instead of ctxt->inputNr to determine whether
we are inside a parameter entity.
Stop using ctxt->external to check whether we're in an external DTD.
This is signaled by ctxt->inSubset == 2.
Introduce xmlCtxtSetErrorHandler allowing to set a structured error for
a parser context. There already was the "serror" SAX handler but this
always receives the parser context as argument.
Start to use xmlRaiseMemoryError.
Remove useless arguments from memory error functions. Rename
xmlErrMemory to xmlCtxtErrMemory.
Remove a few calls to xmlGenericError.
Remove support for runtime entity debugging.
Fix many places where malloc failures aren't reported.
Make xmlErrMemory public. This is useful for custom external entity
loaders.
Introduce new API function xmlSwitchEncodingName.
Change the way how we store whether the the parser is stopped. This used
to be signaled by setting ctxt->instate to XML_PARSER_EOF which was
misdesigned and error-prone. Set ctxt->disableSAX to 2 instead and
introduce a macro PARSER_STOPPED. Also stop to remove parser inputs in
xmlHaltParser. This allows to remove many checks of ctxt->instate.
Introduce xmlErrParser to handle errors if a parser context is
available.
Use a hash table to lookup namespaces by prefix. The hash table stores
an index into the namespace table. Auxiliary data for namespaces is
stored in a separate array along the main namespace table.
Use a hash table to verify attribute uniqueness. The hash table stores
an index into the attribute table.
Reuse hash value from the dictionary to avoid computing them twice.
See #346.
Introduce XML_INPUT_HAS_ENCODING flag for xmlParserInput which is set
when xmlSwitchEncoding is called. The parser can use the flag to
reliably detect whether an encoding was already set via user override,
BOM or other auto-detection. In this case, the encoding declaration
won't be used to switch the encoding.
Before, an inscrutable mix of ctxt->charset, ctxt->input->encoding
and ctxt->input->buf->encoder was used.
Introduce private helper functions to switch encodings used by both the
XML and HTML parser:
- xmlDetectEncoding which skips over the BOM, allowing to remove the
BOM checks from other encoding functions.
- xmlSetDeclaredEncoding, replacing htmlCheckEncodingDirect, which warns
about encoding mismatches.
If users override the encoding, store the declared instead of the actual
encoding in xmlDoc. In this case, the actual encoding is known and the
raw value from the doc is more useful.
Also use the input flags to store the ISO-8859-1 fallback state.
Restrict the fallback to cases where no encoding was specified. (The
fallback is only useful in recovery mode and these days broken UTF-8 is
probably more likely than ISO-8859-1, so it might eventually be removed
completely.)
The 'charset' member of xmlParserCtxt is now unused. The 'encoding'
member of xmlParserInput is now unused.
The 'standalone' member of xmlParserInput is renamed to 'flags'.
A new parser state XML_PARSER_XML_DECL is added for the push parser.
Don't try to grow the input buffer in xmlParserShrink. This makes sure
that no memory allocations are made and the function always succeeds.
Remove unnecessary invocations of SHRINK. Invoke SHRINK at the end of
DTD parsing loops.
Shrink before growing.
Private functions were previously declared
- in header files in the root directory
- in public headers guarded with IN_LIBXML
- in libxml.h
- redundantly in source files that used them.
Consolidate all private header files in include/private.
