Xml

When True, causes an XML node's content to be encapsulated in a CDATA section.

The content of the XML node. It is the text between the open and close tags, not including child nodes. For example:

<tag1>This is the content</tag1>

<tag2><child1>abc</child1><child2>abc</child2>This is the content</tag2>

See the notes about PWideChar memory ownership and validity.

Set/get the content as an integer.

If set to a file path, causes each Chilkat method or property call to automatically append it's LastErrorText to the specified log file. The information is appended such that if a hang or crash occurs, it is possible to see the context in which the problem occurred, as well as a history of all Chilkat calls up to the point of the problem. The VerboseLogging property can be set to provide more detailed information.

This property is typically used for debugging the rare cases where a Chilkat method call hangs or generates an exception that halts program execution (i.e. crashes). A hang or crash should generally never happen. The typical causes of a hang are:

1. a timeout related property was set to 0 to explicitly indicate that an infinite timeout is desired,
2. the hang is actually a hang within an event callback (i.e. it is a hang within the application code), or
3. there is an internal problem (bug) in the Chilkat code that causes the hang.

See the notes about PWideChar memory ownership and validity.

The DOCTYPE declaration (if any) for the XML document.

See the notes about PWideChar memory ownership and validity.

If True, then emit the BOM (byte order mark, also known as a preamble) for encodings such as utf-8, utf-16, etc. The defautl value is False. This only applies when writing XML files. It does not apply when getting the XML as a string via the GetXml method.

If True, then GetXml and GetXmlSb emit compact XML. The XML emitted has no unnecessary whitespace, incuding no end-of-lines (CR's and/or LF's). The default value is False, which maintains backward compatibility.

If True, then the XML declaration is emitted for methods (such as GetXml or SaveXml) where the XML is written to a file or string. The default value of this property is True. If set to False, the XML declaration is not emitted. (The XML declaration is the 1st line of an XML document starting with "<?xml ...".

This is the encoding attribute in the XML declaration, such as "utf-8" or "iso-8859-1". The default is "utf-8". This property can be set from any node in the XML document and when set, causes the encoding property to be added to the XML declaration. Setting this property does not cause the document to be converted to a different encoding.

Calling any of the LoadXml* methods causes this property to be set to the charset found within the XML, if any. If no charset is specified within the loaded XML, then the LoadXml method resets this property to its default value of "utf-8".

See the notes about PWideChar memory ownership and validity.

Used in tagPaths (and ChilkatPath). The value of this property is substituted for "i" in "[i]". See the example below..

Returns True if the content contains only those characters allowed in the base64 encoding. A base64 string is composed of characters 'A'..'Z', 'a'..'z', '0'..'9', '+', '/' and it is often padded at the end with up to two '=', to make the length a multiple of 4. Whitespace is ignored.

Used in tagPaths (and ChilkatPath). The value of this property is substituted for "j" in "[j]". See the example below..

Used in tagPaths (and ChilkatPath). The value of this property is substituted for "k" in "[k]". See the example below..

Provides information in HTML format about the last method/property called. If a method call returns a value indicating failure, or behaves unexpectedly, examine this property to get more information.

See the notes about PWideChar memory ownership and validity.

Provides information in plain-text format about the last method/property called. If a method call returns a value indicating failure, or behaves unexpectedly, examine this property to get more information.

See the notes about PWideChar memory ownership and validity.

Provides information in XML format about the last method/property called. If a method call returns a value indicating failure, or behaves unexpectedly, examine this property to get more information.

See the notes about PWideChar memory ownership and validity.

Indicate whether the last method call succeeded or failed. A value of True indicates success, a value of False indicates failure. This property is automatically set for method calls. It is not modified by property accesses. The property is automatically set to indicate success for the following types of method calls:

• Any method that returns a string.
• Any method returning a Chilkat object, binary bytes, or a date/time.
• Any method returning a standard boolean status value where success = True and failure = False.
• Any method returning an integer where failure is defined by a return value less than zero.

Note: Methods that do not fit the above requirements will always set this property equal to True. For example, a method that returns no value (such as a "void" in C++) will technically always succeed.

The number of attributes. For example, the following node has 2 attributes:

<tag attr1="value1" attr2="value2"> This is the content</tag>

The number of direct child nodes contained under this XML node.

If true (or 1 for ActiveX), then all Sort* methods use case insensitive sorting.

This is the standalone attribute in the XML declaration. This property can be set from any node in the XML document. A value of True adds a standalone="yes" to the XML declaration:

<?xml ... standalone="yes">

The XML node's tag, including the namespace prefix.

See the notes about PWideChar memory ownership and validity.

The node's namespace prefix, if present. For example, if the tag is "soapenv:Envelope", then this property will return "soapenv".

See the notes about PWideChar memory ownership and validity.

Returns the path to reach this element from the XML document root. If the caller is the document root, then the empty string is returned.

See the notes about PWideChar memory ownership and validity.

The node's tag without the namespace prefix. For example, if the tag is "soapenv:Envelope", then this property will return "Envelope".

See the notes about PWideChar memory ownership and validity.

Each tree (or XML document) has a unique TreeId. This is the ID of the tree, and can be used to determine if two Xml objects belong to the same tree.

This is a catch-all property to be used for uncommon needs. This property defaults to the empty string and should typically remain empty.

See the notes about PWideChar memory ownership and validity.

If set to True, then the contents of LastErrorText (or LastErrorXml, or LastErrorHtml) may contain more verbose information. The default value is False. Verbose logging should only be used for debugging. The potentially large quantity of logged information may adversely affect peformance.

Version of the component/library, such as "9.5.0.94"

See the notes about PWideChar memory ownership and validity.

Accumulates the content of all nodes having a specific tag into a single result string. SkipTags specifies a set of subtrees to be avoided. The skipTags are formatted as a string of tags delimited by vertical bar characters. All nodes in sub-trees rooted with a tag appearing in skipTags are not included in the result.

Returns True for success, False for failure.

Sets the node's content with 8bit data that is in a specified multibyte character encoding such as utf-8, shift-jis, big5, etc. The data is first B-encoded and the content is set to be the B-encoded string. For example, if called with "Big5"for the charset, you would get a string that looks something like this: "=?Big5?B?pHCtsw==?=". The data is Base64-encoded and stored between the last pair of "?" delimiters. Use the DecodeContent method to retrieve the byte data from a B encoded string.

Returns True for success, False for failure.

Return True if a child at the specified tagPath contains content that matches a wildcarded pattern. Otherwise returns False.

Beginning in version 9.5.0.64, the tagPath can be a tag path. A tag path is a series of tags separated by vertical bar characters. For example: "tagA|tagB|tagC".

5. "--" -- Navigate to the previous sibling.
6. TagName{Content} -- Navigate to the 1st direct child with the given tag having the exact content.
7. /T/TagName -- Traverse the XML DOM tree (rooted at the caller) and navigate to the 1st node having the given tag.
8. /C/TagName,ContentPattern -- Traverse the XML DOM tree (rooted at the caller) and navigate to the 1st node having the given tag with content that matches the ContentPattern. ContentPattern may use one or more asterisk ('*") characters to represent 0 or more of any character.
9. /C/ContentPattern -- Traverse the XML DOM tree (rooted at the caller) and navigate to the 1st node having any tag with content that matches the ContentPattern. ContentPattern may use one or more asterisk ('*") characters to represent 0 or more of any character.
10. /A/TagName,AttrName,AttrValuePattern -- Traverse the XML DOM tree (rooted at the caller) and navigate to the 1st node having the given tag, and attribute, with the attribute value that matches the AttrValuePattern. AttrValuePattern may use one or more asterisk ('*") characters to represent 0 or more of any character.

1. * -- Return the Content of the node.
2. (AttrName) -- Return the value of the given attribute.
3. $ -- Update the caller's internal reference to be the node (arrived at by following the series of commands). Returns an empty string.

• "RemoveCtrl" - Remove non-printable us-ascii control chars (us-ascii values <= 31 except for TAB,CR, and LF are removed)

If you have other ideas for useful XML scrubbing directives, send email to [email protected]. It must be general enough such that many developers will find it useful.

Returns the first node having content matching the contentPattern. The contentPattern is a case-sensitive string that may contain any number of '*'s, each representing 0 or more occurrences of any character. The search is breadth-first over the sub-tree rooted at the caller. A match is returned only after the search has traversed past the node indicated by afterPtr.

Returns True for success, False for failure.

Unzips and recreates the XML node and the entire subtree, restoring it to the state before it was zip compressed.

Returns True for success, False for failure.

Updates the content for the node indicated by tagPath. If autoCreate is True, then nodes along tagPath are auto-created as needed.

Updates or adds the attribute value for the node indicated by tagPath. If autoCreate is True, then nodes along tagPath are auto-created as needed.

Adds an attribute to the node if it doesn't already exist. Otherwise it updates the existing attribute with the new value.

Returns True for success, False for failure.

Updates an attribute value. (Call UpdateAttribute if the attribute value is a string.)

Returns True for success, False for failure.

Replaces the content of a child node. The tagPath can be a tag or tag path.

Beginning in version 9.5.0.64, the tagPath can be a tag path. A tag path is a series of tags separated by vertical bar characters. For example: "tagA|tagB|tagC". The nodes in the tagPath are automatically created as needed.

Replaces the content of a child node where the content is an integer. The tagPath can be a tag or tag path.

Beginning in version 9.5.0.64, the tagPath can be a tag path. A tag path is a series of tags separated by vertical bar characters. For example: "tagA|tagB|tagC".

Applies Zip compression to the content of an XML node and replaces the content with base64-encoded compressed data.

Returns True for success, False for failure.

Zip compresses the content and entire subtree rooted at the calling XML node and replaces the current content with base64-encoded Zip compressed data. The node and subtree can be restored by calling UnzipTree. Note that the node name and attributes are unaffected.

Returns True for success, False for failure.
