◆ parseXML() [1/2]

nothing Qore::Xml::parseXML ( )

This is a variant that is basically a noop, included for backwards-compatibility for functions that ignored type errors in the calling parameters.

Code Flags:
RUNTIME_NOOP, DEPRECATED

◆ parseXML() [2/2]

hash Qore::Xml::parseXML ( string  xml,
*string  encoding 
)

Parses an XML string and returns a Qore hash structure.

If duplicate, out-of-order XML elements are found in the input string, they are deserialized to Qore hash elements with the same name as the XML element but including a caret '^' and a numeric prefix to maintain the same key order in the Qore hash as in the input XML string.

This function should only be used when it is important to maintain the XML element order in the resulting Qore data structure (for example, when the data must be re-serialized to an XML string and the element order within a subelement must be maintained), for example, when parsing and reserializing an OSX property list in XML format. In all other cases, parseXMLAsData() should be used instead.

Code Flags:
RET_VALUE_ONLY, DEPRECATED
Parameters
xmlthe XML string to parse
encodingan optional string giving the encoding for the output XML string; if this parameter is missing, all strings in the output hash will have the default encoding
Returns
a Qore hash structure corresponding to the XML input string
Exceptions
PARSE-XML-EXCEPTIONError parsing the XML string
See also
Automatic XML Serialization and Deserialization
Deprecated:
use parse_xml(); camel-case function names were deprecated in xml 1.3

◆ parseXMLAsData() [1/2]

nothing Qore::Xml::parseXMLAsData ( )

This is a variant that is basically a noop, included for backwards-compatibility for functions that ignored type errors in the calling parameters.

Code Flags:
RUNTIME_NOOP, DEPRECATED

◆ parseXMLAsData() [2/2]

hash Qore::Xml::parseXMLAsData ( string  xml,
*string  encoding 
)

Parses an XML string as data (does not necessarily preserve key order) and returns a Qore hash structure.

This function does not preserve hash order with out-of-order duplicate keys; all duplicate keys are collapsed to the same list.

Note that data deserialized with this function may not be reserialized to an identical XML string to the input due to the fact that duplicate, out-of-order XML elements are collapsed into lists in the resulting Qore hash, thereby losing the order in the original XML string.

For a similar function preserving the order of keys in the XML in the resulting Qore hash by generating Qore hash element names with numeric suffixes, see parseXML().

Code Flags:
RET_VALUE_ONLY, DEPRECATED
Parameters
xmlthe XML string to parse
encodingan optional string giving the encoding for the output XML string; if this parameter is missing, all strings in the output hash will have the default encoding
Returns
a Qore hash structure corresponding to the XML input string
Exceptions
PARSE-XML-EXCEPTIONError parsing the XML string
See also
Deprecated:
use parse_xml(); camel-case function names were deprecated in xml 1.3

◆ parseXMLAsDataWithRelaxNG()

hash Qore::Xml::parseXMLAsDataWithRelaxNG ( string  xml,
string  relaxng,
*string  encoding 
)

Parses an XML string as data (does not preserve hash order with out-of-order duplicate keys: collapses all to the same list), validates the XML string against a RelaxNG schema string, and returns a Qore hash structure.

If any errors occur parsing the RelaxNG schema string, parsing the XML string, or validating the XML against the XSD, exceptions are thrown. If no encoding string argument is passed, then all strings in the resulting hash will be in UTF-8 encoding regardless of the input encoding of the XML string.

Please note that data deserialized with this function may not be reserialized to an identical XML string to the input due to the fact that duplicate, out-of-order XML elements are collapsed into lists in the resulting Qore hash, thereby losing the order in the original XML string.

The availability of this function depends on the presence of libxml2's xmlTextReaderRelaxNGSetSchema() function when the xml module was compiled; for maximum portability check the constant HAVE_PARSEXMLWITHRELAXNG before running this function.

encodingan optional string giving the string encoding of any strings output; if this parameter is missing, the any strings output in the output hash will have UTF-8 encoding
Returns

◆ parseXMLAsDataWithSchema()

hash Qore::Xml::parseXMLAsDataWithSchema ( string  xml,
string  xsd,
*string  encoding 
)

Parses an XML string as data (does not preserve hash order with out-of-order duplicate keys: collapses all to the same list), validates the XML string against an XSD schema string, and returns a Qore hash structure.

If any errors occur parsing the XSD string, parsing the XML string, or validating the XML against the XSD, exceptions are thrown. If no encoding string argument is passed, then all strings in the resulting hash will be in UTF-8 encoding regardless of the input encoding of the XML string.

Please note that data deserialized with this function may not be reserialized to an identical XML string to the input due to the fact that duplicate, out-of-order XML elements are collapsed into lists in the resulting Qore hash, thereby losing the order in the original XML string.
