<H2><A NAME="3_3">Loading XML</A></H2>
|
|
<P>You load an XML file using the <A href="mxmlLoadFile.html#mxmlLoadFile">
|
|
<TT>mxmlLoadFile()</TT></A> function:</P>
|
|
<PRE>
|
|
FILE *fp;
|
|
<A href="mxmlnodet.html#mxml_node_t">mxml_node_t</A> *tree;
|
|
|
|
fp = fopen("filename.xml", "r");
|
|
tree = <A href="mxmlLoadFile.html#mxmlLoadFile">mxmlLoadFile</A>(NULL, fp, MXML_NO_CALLBACK);
|
|
fclose(fp);
|
|
</PRE>
|
|
<P>The first argument specifies an existing XML parent node, if any.
|
|
Normally you will pass <TT>NULL</TT> for this argument unless you are
|
|
combining multiple XML sources. The XML file must contain a complete
|
|
XML document including the <TT>?xml</TT> element if the parent node is <TT>
|
|
NULL</TT>.</P>
|
|
<P>The second argument specifies the stdio file to read from, as opened
|
|
by <TT>fopen()</TT> or <TT>popen()</TT>. You can also use <TT>stdin</TT>
|
|
if you are implementing an XML filter program.</P>
|
|
<P>The third argument specifies a callback function which returns the
|
|
value type of the immediate children for a new element node: <TT>
|
|
MXML_INTEGER</TT>, <TT>MXML_OPAQUE</TT>, <TT>MXML_REAL</TT>, or <TT>
|
|
MXML_TEXT</TT>. Load callbacks are described in detail in <A href="LoadCallbacks.html#LOAD_CALLBACKS">
|
|
Chapter 3</A>. The example code uses the <TT>MXML_NO_CALLBACK</TT>
|
|
constant which specifies that all data nodes in the document contain
|
|
whitespace-separated text values.</P>
|
|
<P>The <A href="mxmlLoadString.html#mxmlLoadString"><TT>mxmlLoadString()</TT>
|
|
</A> function loads XML node trees from a string:</P>
|
|
<PRE>
|
|
char buffer[8192];
|
|
<A href="mxmlnodet.html#mxml_node_t">mxml_node_t</A> *tree;
|
|
|
|
...
|
|
tree = <A href="mxmlLoadString.html#mxmlLoadString">mxmlLoadString</A>(NULL, buffer, MXML_NO_CALLBACK);
|
|
</PRE>
|
|
<P>The first and third arguments are the same as used for <TT>
|
|
mxmlLoadFile()</TT>. The second argument specifies the string or
|
|
character buffer to load and must be a complete XML document including
|
|
the <TT>?xml</TT> element if the parent node is <TT>NULL</TT>.</P>
