All Implemented Interfaces:
  org.w3c.dom.ls.LSInput

    public class DOMInputImpl

extends java.lang.Object
implements org.w3c.dom.ls.LSInput

This Class `DOMInputImpl` represents a single input source for an XML entity.

This Class allows an application to encapsulate information about an input source in a single object, which may include a public identifier, a system identifier, a byte stream (possibly with a specified encoding), and/or a character stream.

The exact definitions of a byte stream and a character stream are binding dependent.

There are two places that the application will deliver this input source to the parser: as the argument to the `parse` method, or as the return value of the `DOMResourceResolver.resolveEntity` method.

The `DOMParser` will use the `LSInput` object to determine how to read XML input. If there is a character stream available, the parser will read that stream directly; if not, the parser will use a byte stream, if available; if neither a character stream nor a byte stream is available, the parser will attempt to open a URI connection to the resource identified by the system identifier.

An `LSInput` object belongs to the application: the parser shall never modify it in any way (it may modify a copy if necessary). Eventhough all attributes in this interface are writable the DOM implementation is expected to never mutate a LSInput.

Method Detail

### getByteStream

    public java.io.InputStream getByteStream()

  An attribute of a language-binding dependent type that represents a stream of bytes.
  The parser will ignore this if there is also a character stream specified, but it will use a byte stream in preference to opening a URI connection itself.
  If the application knows the character encoding of the byte stream, it should set the encoding property. Setting the encoding in this way will override any encoding specified in the XML declaration itself.

  Specified by:
    `getByteStream` in interface `org.w3c.dom.ls.LSInput`

### setByteStream

    public void setByteStream(java.io.InputStream byteStream)

  An attribute of a language-binding dependent type that represents a stream of bytes.
  The parser will ignore this if there is also a character stream specified, but it will use a byte stream in preference to opening a URI connection itself.
  If the application knows the character encoding of the byte stream, it should set the encoding property. Setting the encoding in this way will override any encoding specified in the XML declaration itself.

  Specified by:
    `setByteStream` in interface `org.w3c.dom.ls.LSInput`

### getCharacterStream

    public java.io.Reader getCharacterStream()

  An attribute of a language-binding dependent type that represents a stream of 16-bit units. Application must encode the stream using UTF-16 (defined in and Amendment 1 of ).
  If a character stream is specified, the parser will ignore any byte stream and will not attempt to open a URI connection to the system identifier.

  Specified by:
    `getCharacterStream` in interface `org.w3c.dom.ls.LSInput`

### setCharacterStream

    public void setCharacterStream(java.io.Reader characterStream)

  An attribute of a language-binding dependent type that represents a stream of 16-bit units. Application must encode the stream using UTF-16 (defined in and Amendment 1 of ).
  If a character stream is specified, the parser will ignore any byte stream and will not attempt to open a URI connection to the system identifier.

  Specified by:
    `setCharacterStream` in interface `org.w3c.dom.ls.LSInput`

### getStringData

    public java.lang.String getStringData()

  A string attribute that represents a sequence of 16 bit units (utf-16 encoded characters).
  If string data is available in the input source, the parser will ignore the character stream and the byte stream and will not attempt to open a URI connection to the system identifier.

  Specified by:
    `getStringData` in interface `org.w3c.dom.ls.LSInput`

### setStringData

    public void setStringData(java.lang.String stringData)

  A string attribute that represents a sequence of 16 bit units (utf-16 encoded characters).
  If string data is available in the input source, the parser will ignore the character stream and the byte stream and will not attempt to open a URI connection to the system identifier.

  Specified by:
    `setStringData` in interface `org.w3c.dom.ls.LSInput`

### getEncoding

    public java.lang.String getEncoding()

  The character encoding, if known. The encoding must be a string acceptable for an XML encoding declaration ( section 4.3.3 "Character Encoding in Entities").
  This attribute has no effect when the application provides a character stream. For other sources of input, an encoding specified by means of this attribute will override any encoding specified in the XML claration or the Text Declaration, or an encoding obtained from a higher level protocol, such as HTTP .

  Specified by:
    `getEncoding` in interface `org.w3c.dom.ls.LSInput`

### setEncoding

    public void setEncoding(java.lang.String encoding)

  The character encoding, if known. The encoding must be a string acceptable for an XML encoding declaration ( section 4.3.3 "Character Encoding in Entities").
  This attribute has no effect when the application provides a character stream. For other sources of input, an encoding specified by means of this attribute will override any encoding specified in the XML claration or the Text Declaration, or an encoding obtained from a higher level protocol, such as HTTP .

  Specified by:
    `setEncoding` in interface `org.w3c.dom.ls.LSInput`

### getPublicId

    public java.lang.String getPublicId()

  The public identifier for this input source. The public identifier is always optional: if the application writer includes one, it will be provided as part of the location information.

  Specified by:
    `getPublicId` in interface `org.w3c.dom.ls.LSInput`

### setPublicId

    public void setPublicId(java.lang.String publicId)

  The public identifier for this input source. The public identifier is always optional: if the application writer includes one, it will be provided as part of the location information.

  Specified by:
    `setPublicId` in interface `org.w3c.dom.ls.LSInput`

### getSystemId

    public java.lang.String getSystemId()

  The system identifier, a URI reference , for this input source. The system identifier is optional if there is a byte stream or a character stream, but it is still useful to provide one, since the application can use it to resolve relative URIs and can include it in error messages and warnings (the parser will attempt to fetch the ressource identifier by the URI reference only if there is no byte stream or character stream specified).
  If the application knows the character encoding of the object pointed to by the system identifier, it can register the encoding by setting the encoding attribute.
  If the system ID is a relative URI reference (see section 5 in ), the behavior is implementation dependent.

  Specified by:
    `getSystemId` in interface `org.w3c.dom.ls.LSInput`

### setSystemId

    public void setSystemId(java.lang.String systemId)

  The system identifier, a URI reference , for this input source. The system identifier is optional if there is a byte stream or a character stream, but it is still useful to provide one, since the application can use it to resolve relative URIs and can include it in error messages and warnings (the parser will attempt to fetch the ressource identifier by the URI reference only if there is no byte stream or character stream specified).
  If the application knows the character encoding of the object pointed to by the system identifier, it can register the encoding by setting the encoding attribute.
  If the system ID is a relative URI reference (see section 5 in ), the behavior is implementation dependent.

  Specified by:
    `setSystemId` in interface `org.w3c.dom.ls.LSInput`

### getBaseURI

    public java.lang.String getBaseURI()

  The base URI to be used (see section 5.1.4 in ) for resolving relative URIs to absolute URIs. If the baseURI is itself a relative URI, the behavior is implementation dependent.

### setBaseURI

    public void setBaseURI(java.lang.String baseURI)

  The base URI to be used (see section 5.1.4 in ) for resolving relative URIs to absolute URIs. If the baseURI is itself a relative URI, the behavior is implementation dependent.

    public boolean getCertifiedText()

  If set to true, assume that the input is certified (see section 2.13 in [XML 1.1]) when parsing [XML 1.1].

  Specified by:
    `getCertifiedText` in interface `org.w3c.dom.ls.LSInput`

### setCertifiedText

    public void setCertifiedText(boolean certifiedText)
