PSVIProvider

public interface PSVIProvider
This interface provides access to the post schema validation infoset for an API that provides streaming document infoset, such as SAX, XNI, and others.

For implementations that would like to provide access to the PSVI in a streaming model, a parser object should also implement PSVIProvider interface. Within the scope of the methods handling the start and end of an element, applications may use the PSVIProvider to retrieve the PSVI related to that element and its attributes. The interface may be updated or replaced.

param
index The attribute index

The post schema validation properties of the attribute.

public com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.xni.psvi.AttributePSVIgetAttributePSVIByName(java.lang.String uri, java.lang.String localname)
Provides AttributePSVI given namespace and localname of an attribute information item in the current element's attribute list. The method must be called by an application while in the scope of a document handler startElement call.

param
uri The namespace of an attribute
param
localname The local name of an attribute
return
The post schema validation properties of the attribute.

public com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.xni.psvi.ElementPSVIgetElementPSVI()
Provides the post schema validation item for the current element information item. The method must be called by an application while in the scope of a document handler start/end element calls. If this methods is called from other document handler methods, the return value is undefined.

return
The post schema validation infoset for the current element. If an element information item is valid then in the post-schema-validation infoset the following properties must be available for the element information item: The following properties are available in the scope of a document handler startElement: {element declaration}, {validation context}, {notation}. The {schema information} property is available for the validation root. The {error codes} property is available if any errors occured during validation. The following properties are available in the scope of a document handler endElement: {nil}, {schema specified}, {normalized value},{ member type definition}, {validity}, {validation attempted} . If the declaration has a value constraint, the property {schema default} is available. The {error codes} property is available if any errors occured during validation. Note: some processors may choose to provide all the PSVI properties in the scope of the endElement.
