ISAXXMLReader::getFeature Method (Compact 2013)

3/26/2014

This method returns the Boolean value of a feature.

Syntax

HRESULT getFeature(
  const wchar_t* pwchName,
  VARIANT_BOOL* pvfValue
);

Parameters

• pwchName
  [in] Pointer to the feature name (zero-terminated Unicode string).

• pvfValue
  [out, retval] Pointer to the value of the feature (True or False).

Return Value

The following table lists the return values for the getFeature method.

Remarks

The feature name is any fully qualified Uniform Resource Identifier (URI). However, at this time, the ISAXXMLReader interface recognizes only the following features and their settings:

• "http://xml.org/sax/features/namespaces"
  • True
    (Default) Perform name space processing.
  • False
    This value has no effect and returns E_FAIL.
  • Access
    Read-only for parsing; read/write when not parsing.
• "http://xml.org/sax/features/namespace-prefixes"
  • True
    Report the original prefixed names and attributes used for namespace declarations in the QNames (qualified names) field.
  • False
    Do not report attributes used for namespace declarations and, optionally, do not report original prefixed names.
  • Access
    Read-only for parsing; read/write when not parsing.
• "http://xml.org/sax/features/external-general-entities"
  • True
    Include all external general (text) entities.
  • False
    (Default) Do not include external general entities.
  • Access
    Read-only for parsing; read/write when not parsing.
• "http://xml.org/sax/features/external-parameter-entities"
  • True 
    Include all external parameter entities, including the external document type definition (DTD) subset.
  • False
    (Default) Do not include any external parameter entities, including the external DTD subset.
  • Access
    Read-only for parsing; read/write when not parsing.
• "normalize-line-breaks"
  • True
    (Default) Normalize CR-LF sequence into single LF per XML 1.0 specifications.
  • False
    Keep CR-LF intact, as usual in COM programming.
  • Access
    Read-only for parsing; read/write when not parsing.
• "server-http-request"
  • True
    Use the server-safe ServerXMLHTTP object for the parseURL method.
  • False
    (Default) Use the WinInet component to get data through HTTP for parseURL.
  • Access
    Read-only for parsing; read/write when not parsing.

The values for the namespaces and namespace-prefixes features may be available only in a specific context, such as before, during, or after a parse.

The reader recognizes the "http://xml.org/sax/features/string-interning" and "http://xml.org/sax/features/validation" features. However, you cannot set these features in the current SAX2 implementation.

The behavior of the reader depends on the values of the namespaces and namespace-prefixes, as shown in the following table.

The SAX2 specifications state the implementation must report QNames when the namespace or namespace-prefixes feature is set to False. The namespace and namespace-prefixes features cannot both be set to False.
