# xmerl_eventp

### MODULE

xmerl_eventp

### MODULE SUMMARY

Simple event-based front-ends to xmerl_scan for processing of XML documents in streams and for parsing in SAX style.

Simple event-based front-ends to xmerl_scan for processing of XML documents in streams and for parsing in SAX style. Each contain more elaborate settings of xmerl_scan that makes usage of the customization functions.

### EXPORTS

file_sax(Fname::string(), CallBackModule::atom(), UserState, Options::option_list()) -> NewUserState

Parse file containing an XML document, SAX style. Wrapper for a call to the XML parser xmerl_scan with a hook_fun for using xmerl export functionality directly after an entity is parsed.

stream(Fname::string(), Options::option_list()) -> xmlElement()

Parse file containing an XML document as a stream, DOM style. Wrapper for a call to the XML parser xmerl_scan with a continuation_fun for handling streams of XML data. Note that the continuation_fun, acc_fun, fetch_fun, rules and close_fun options cannot be user defined using this parser.

stream_sax(Fname, CallBack::CallBackModule, UserState, Options) -> xmlElement()

Types:

Fname = string()
CallBackModule = atom()
Options = option_list()

Parse file containing an XML document as a stream, SAX style. Wrapper for a call to the XML parser xmerl_scan with a continuation_fun for handling streams of XML data. Note that the continuation_fun, acc_fun, fetch_fun, rules, hook_fun, close_fun and user_state options cannot be user defined using this parser.

string_sax(String::list(), CallBackModule::atom(), UserState, Options::option_list()) -> xmlElement()

Parse file containing an XML document, SAX style. Wrapper for a call to the XML parser xmerl_scan with a hook_fun for using xmerl export functionality directly after an entity is parsed.
