Function Documentation

◆ roxml_add_node()

ROXML_API node_t * roxml_add_node ( node_t parent,
int  position,
int  type,
char *  name,
char *  content 
)

add a node to the tree

this function add a new node to the tree. This will not update de buffer or file, only the RAM loaded tree. One should call roxml_commit_changes to save modifications. If the parent node is an ROXML_ELM_NODE, then, new node will be added as a child. Else the node will be added as a sibling of the parent node. In the later case, position parameter describes the position in the sibling list, instead of position in the children list.

Parameters
parentthe parent node
positionthe position as a child of parent 1 is the first child, 0 for auto position at the end of children list...
typethe type of node between ROXML_ATTR_NODE, ROXML_ELM_NODE, ROXML_TXT_NODE, ROXML_CDATA_NODE, ROXML_PI_NODE, ROXML_CMT_NODE, ROXML_NSDEF_NODE, ROXML_NS_NODE.
namethe name of the node (mandatory for ROXML_ATTR_NODE and ROXML_ELM_NODE and ROXML_PI_NODE and ROXML_NSDEF_NODE and ROXML_NS_NODE only)
valuethe text content (mandatory for ROXML_TXT_NODE, ROXML_CDATA_NODE, ROXML_CMT_NODE, ROXML_ATTR_NODE and ROXML_NSDEF_NODE optional for ROXML_ELM_NODE, ROXML_PI_NODE). The text content for an attribute is the attribute value
Returns
the newly created node
See also
roxml_commit_changes
roxml_commit_buffer
roxml_commit_file
roxml_del_node
roxml_close

Escaping the as per XML specifications can be done by adding the ROXML_ESCAPED_MOD modifier to node type as showed below:

roxml_add_node(NULL, 0, ROXML_ESCAPE_MODE | ROXML_ELM_NODE, "node1", "content <that> needs escaping");
#define ROXML_ELM_NODE
Definition roxml.h:70
ROXML_API node_t * roxml_add_node(node_t *parent, int position, int type, char *name, char *content)
add a node to the tree
Definition roxml_edit.c:353

This will create a node that exports as:

 * <node1>content &lt;that&gt; needs escaping</node1>
 * 

paramaters name and value depending on node type:

  • ROXML_ELM_NODE take at least a node name. the parameter value is optional and represents the text content.
  • ROXML_TXT_NODE ignore the node name. the parameter value represents the text content.
  • ROXML_CDATA_NODE ignore the node name. the parameter value represents the text content that will be encapsulated in CDATA tags.
  • ROXML_CMT_NODE ignore the node name. the parameter value represents the comment.
  • ROXML_PI_NODE take the node name as process-instruction target. the parameter value represents the content of processing-instruction.
  • ROXML_ATTR_NODE take an attribute name. and the attribute value as given by parameter value.
  • ROXML_NSDEF_NODE take an attribute name (empty string for default namespace). and the namespace value as given by parameter value.
  • ROXML_NS_NODE take an attribute name (empty string for default namespace).

◆ roxml_commit_buffer()

ROXML_API int roxml_commit_buffer ( node_t n,
char **  buffer,
int  human 
)

sync to a memory buffer function

this function syncs changes from the RAM tree to the given buffer in human or one-line format The tree will be processed starting with the root node 'n' and following with all its children or if n is the root, all its siblings and children. The tree will be dumped to a buffer if 'buffer' is not null. the buffer is allocated by the library and a pointer to it will be stored into 'buffer'. The allocated buffer can be freed using free()

Parameters
nthe root node of the tree to write
bufferthe address of a buffer where the tree will be written. This buffer have to be freed after use
human0 for one-line tree, or 1 for human format (using indentation, newlines...)
Returns
the number of bytes written to file or buffer

One should do:

#include <roxml.h>
int main(void)
{
char *buffer = NULL;
node_t *root = roxml_add_node(NULL, 0, ROXML_ELM_NODE, "xml", NULL);
node_t *tmp = roxml_add_node(root, 0, ROXML_CMT_NODE, NULL, "sample XML file");
tmp = roxml_add_node(root, 0, ROXML_ELM_NODE, "item", NULL);
roxml_add_node(tmp, 0, ROXML_ATTR_NODE, "id", "42");
tmp = roxml_add_node(tmp, 0, ROXML_ELM_NODE, "price", "24");
roxml_commit_changes(root, &buffer, 1);
roxml_close(root);
return 0;
}

to generate the following xml bloc:

<root>
 <!-- sample XML file -->
 <item id="42">
  <price>
   24
  </price>
 </item>
</root>

or also

#include <roxml.h>

◆ roxml_commit_changes()

ROXML_API int roxml_commit_changes ( node_t n,
char *  dest,
char **  buffer,
int  human 
)

sync function

Deprecated:
this function sync changes from the RAM tree to the given buffer or file in human or one-line format The tree will be processed starting with the root node 'n' and following with all its children or if n is the root, all its siblings and children. The tree will be dumped to a file if 'dest' is not null and contains a valid path. The tree will be dumped to a buffer if 'buffer' is not null. the buffer is allocated by the library and a pointer to it will be stored into 'buffer'. The allocated buffer can be freed usinf free()
Warning
in the case of a tree loaded using roxml_load_doc, the roxml_commit_changes cannot be done to that same file since it may override datas it need. This usually result in a new file filled with garbages. The solution is to write it to a temporary file and rename it after roxml_close the current tree.

This function is now deprecated and one should use roxml_commit_buffer or roxml_commit_file that achieves the exact same goal.

Parameters
nthe root node of the tree to write
destthe path to a file to write tree to
bufferthe address of a buffer where the tree will be written. This buffer have to be freed after use
human0 for one-line tree, or 1 for human format (using tabs, newlines...)
Returns
the number of bytes written to file or buffer
See also
roxml_commit_buffer
roxml_commit_file

This is a legacy function that proposes the same functionnalities as both roxml_commit_file and roxml_commit_buffer. New code should use the latter functions when needed.

One should do:

#include <roxml.h>
int main(void)
{
node_t *root = roxml_add_node(NULL, 0, ROXML_ELM_NODE, "xml", NULL);
node_t *tmp = roxml_add_node(root, 0, ROXML_CMT_NODE, NULL, "sample XML file");
tmp = roxml_add_node(root, 0, ROXML_ELM_NODE, "item", NULL);
roxml_add_node(tmp, 0, ROXML_ATTR_NODE, "id", "42");
tmp = roxml_add_node(tmp, 0, ROXML_ELM_NODE, "price", "24");
roxml_commit_changes(root, "/tmp/test.xml", NULL, 1);
return 0;
}

to generate the following xml bloc:

<root>
 <!-- sample XML file -->
 <item id="42">
  <price>
   24
  </price>
 </item>
</root>

or also

#include <roxml.h>
int main(void)
{
node_t *root = roxml_add_node(NULL, 0, ROXML_ELM_NODE, "xml", NULL);
node_t *tmp = roxml_add_node(root, 0, ROXML_CMT_NODE, NULL, "sample XML file");
tmp = roxml_add_node(root, 0, ROXML_ELM_NODE, "item", NULL);
roxml_add_node(tmp, 0, ROXML_ATTR_NODE, "id", "42");
tmp = roxml_add_node(tmp, 0, ROXML_ELM_NODE, "price", "24");
roxml_commit_changes(root, "/tmp/test.xml", NULL, 0);
roxml_close(root);
return 0;
}

to generate the following xml bloc:

<root><!-- sample XML file --><item id="42"><price>24</price></item></root>

the buffer variant works more or less the same way

#include <stdio.h>
#include <roxml.h>
int main(void)
{
int len = 0;
char * buffer = NULL;
FILE * file_out;
node_t *root = roxml_add_node(NULL, 0, ROXML_ELM_NODE, "xml", NULL);
node_t *tmp = roxml_add_node(root, 0, ROXML_CMT_NODE, NULL, "sample XML file");
tmp = roxml_add_node(root, 0, ROXML_ELM_NODE, "item", NULL);
roxml_add_node(tmp, 0, ROXML_ATTR_NODE, "id", "42");
tmp = roxml_add_node(tmp, 0, ROXML_ELM_NODE, "price", "24");
len = roxml_commit_changes(root, NULL, &buffer, 0);
file_out = fopen("/tmp/test.xml", "w");
fwrite(buffer, 1, len, file_out);
fclose(file_out);
roxml_close(root);
return 0;
}

◆ roxml_commit_fd()

ROXML_API int roxml_commit_fd ( node_t n,
int  fd,
int  human 
)

sync to file descriptor function

this function synchronizes changes from the RAM tree to the given file in human or one-line format. The tree will be processed starting with the root node 'n' and following with all its children or if n is the root, all its siblings and children. The tree will be dumped to a file if fd is a valid file descriptor.

Warning
in the case of a tree loaded using roxml_load_doc, the roxml_commit_fd cannot be done to that same file since it may override datas it needs. This usually results in a new file filled with garbage. The solution is to write it to a temporary file and rename it after roxml_close the current tree.
Parameters
nthe root node of the tree to write
fdthe file descriptor to write tree to
human0 for one-line tree, or 1 for human format (using tabs, newlines...)

◆ roxml_commit_file()

ROXML_API int roxml_commit_file ( node_t n,
char *  dest,
int  human 
)

sync to named file function

this function sync changes from the RAM tree to the given file in human or one-line format The tree will be processed starting with the root node 'n' and following with all its children or if n is the root, all its siblings and children. The tree will be dumped to a file if 'dest' is not null and contains a valid path.

Warning
in the case of a tree loaded using roxml_load_doc, the roxml_commit_file cannot be done to that same file since it may override datas it needs. This usually resultis in a new file filled with garbage. The solution is to write it to a temporary file and rename it after roxml_close the current tree.
Parameters
nthe root node of the tree to write
destthe path to a file to write tree to
human0 for one-line tree, or 1 for human format (using tabs, newlines...)
Returns
the number of bytes written to file or buffer

One should do:

#include <roxml.h>

◆ roxml_release()

roxml_release ( void *  data)

memory cleanning function

This function release the memory pointed by pointer just like free would but for memory allocated with roxml_malloc. Freeing a NULL pointer won't do anything. roxml_release also allow you to remove all previously allocated memory by using RELEASE_ALL as argument. You can also safely use RELEASE_LAST argument that will release the previously allocated varable within the current thread (making this function thread safe). if using roxml_release on a variable non roxml_mallocated, nothing will happen (ie variable won't be freed)

Parameters
datathe pointer to delete or NULL or RELEASE_ALL or RELEASE_LAST
Returns
void

: Setting a namespace to a node is recursif:
  • it will update all element and attribute that are descendant from current node
  • namespace will be applied to all new node added as descendant as current node
