Interface IParser

All Known Implementing Classes:
JsonParser, JsonParserBase, ParserBase, RdfParser, RdfParserBase, XmlParser, XmlParserBase
public interface IParser
General interface - either an XML or JSON parser: read or write instances Defined to allow a factory to create a parser of the right type

  • Method Details

    • getType

      ParserType getType()
      check what kind of parser this is
      Returns:
      what kind of parser this is

    • getHandleComments

      boolean getHandleComments()
      Whether to parse or ignore comments - either reading or writing

    • setHandleComments

      IParser setHandleComments(boolean value)

    • isAllowUnknownContent

      boolean isAllowUnknownContent()
      Parameters:
      allowUnknownContent - Whether to throw an exception if unknown content is found (or just skip it) when parsing

    • setAllowUnknownContent

      IParser setAllowUnknownContent(boolean value)

    • getOutputStyle

      IParser.OutputStyle getOutputStyle()
      Writing:

    • setOutputStyle

      IParser setOutputStyle(IParser.OutputStyle value)

    • setSuppressXhtml

      IParser setSuppressXhtml(String message)
      This method is used by the publication tooling to stop the xhrtml narrative being generated. It is not valid to use in production use. The tooling uses it to generate json/xml representations in html that are not cluttered by escaped html representations of the html representation

    • parse

      Resource parse(InputStream input) throws IOException, org.hl7.fhir.exceptions.FHIRFormatError
      parse content that is known to be a resource
      Throws:
      org.xmlpull.v1.XmlPullParserException
      org.hl7.fhir.exceptions.FHIRFormatError
      IOException

    • parse

    • parseType

      Type parseType(InputStream input, String knownType) throws IOException, org.hl7.fhir.exceptions.FHIRFormatError
      This is used to parse a type - a fragment of a resource. There's no reason to use this in production - it's used in the build tools Not supported by all implementations
      Parameters:
      input -
      knownType - . if this is blank, the parser may try to infer the type (xml only)
      Returns:
      Throws:

      org.hl7.fhir.exceptions.FHIRFormatError
      IOException
