These are the parser functions that allow to read an XML tree from a file or a memory buffer.

Function Documentation

scew_parser* scew_parser_create (   )

Creates a new parser which will be used to load XML trees.

XML_Parser scew_parser_expat (  scew_parser *  parser  )

Returns the internal Expat parser. Probably some low-level Expat functions need to be called. This function gives you access to the Expat parser so you will be able to call those functions. If you modify the Expat parser event handling routines, SCEW will not be able to load the XML tree.

void scew_parser_free (  scew_parser *  parser  )

Frees a parser memory structure. This function will not free the scew_tree generated by the parser, so it is important that you keep a pointer to it and remember to free it. See also: scew_tree_free

unsigned int scew_parser_load_buffer (  scew_parser *  parser, unsigned char const *  buffer, unsigned int  size )

Loads an XML tree from the specified memory buffer of the specified size using the given parser. Parameters: parser  the SCEW parser. buffer  memory buffer to load XML from. size  size in bytes of the memory buffer. See also: scew_parser_create

unsigned int scew_parser_load_file (  scew_parser *  parser, char const *  file_name )

Loads an XML tree from the specified file name using the given parser. Parameters: parser  the SCEW parser. file_name  the file to load the XML from. See also: scew_parser_create

scew_tree* scew_parser_tree (  scew_parser const *  parser  )

Returns the XML tree read by the parser. Remember that scew_parser_free does not free the scew_tree read. See also: tree.h
