Detailed Description

Struct that represents any XML element.

This structure can represent any xml element that a SOAP message contains. Any parser implementation's next(..) or anyNext() methods will return a constant instance of this struct that will contain a xml element. In SAX parser perspective this structure can contain information of StartElement, EndElement, Character data element or a prefix mapping event.

Member Data Documentation

const char* AnyElement::m_pchAttributes[MAX_NO_OF_ATTRIBUTES*3]

Each attribute has 3 entities: localname, namespace and value in order This char* array can contain upto MAX_NO_OF_ATTRIBUTES attributes. When a parser fills in this array the order should be localname, namespace and then value. If there is no prefix in an attribute the namespace should be NULL (note: The localname can never be null for an attribute. Then anyone consuming these attributes will increment the index by 3 starting from 0 (0, 3, 6 ... etc) and if that position in the array is NULL it is understood as the end of attributes.

const char* AnyElement::m_pchNameOrValue

Local name in case of StartElement or EndElement event. Character data in case of character data event. Namespace prefix in case of prefix prefix mapping event.

const char* AnyElement::m_pchNamespace

Namespace of StartElemnt or EndElement tag. In case there is no namespace this should be NULL (not pointing to empty string "" even)

XML_NODE_TYPE AnyElement::m_type

Type of SAX event whose data that an AnyElement can contain.
