The subclass of AbstractXmlPullProvider provides the events, and the + user calling next() and so on, consumes them. AbstractXmlPullProvider can be considered + a forward-only, non-reversible iterator. + + Note that the content the events describes, are not necessarily a well-formed XML document, but + rather an instance of the XPath Data model, to be specific. For instance, maybe a pull provider + returns two atomic values, followed by an element tree, and at the end two document nodes. + + If you are subclassing AbstractXmlPullProvider, be careful to correctly implement + the behaviors, as described for the individual members and events. + + \sa AbstractXmlPullProvider::Event + */ + +/*! + \enum AbstractXmlPullProvider::Event + \value StartOfInput The value AbstractXmlPullProvider::current() returns before the first call to next(). + \value AtomicValue an atomic value such as an \c xs:integer, \c xs:hexBinary, or \c xs:dateTime. Atomic values + can only be top level items. + \value StartDocument Signals the start of a document node. Note that a AbstractXmlPullProvider can provide + a sequence of document nodes. + \value EndDocument Signals the end of a document node. StartDocument and EndDocument are always balanced + and always top-level events. For instance, StartDocument can never appear after any StartElement + events that hasn't been balanced by the corresponding amount of EndElement events. + \value StartElement Signals an element start tag. + \value EndElement Signals the end of an element. StartElement and EndElement events are always balanced. + \value Text Signals a text node. Adjacent text nodes cannot occur. + \value ProcessingInstruction A processing instruction. Its name is returned from name(), and its value in stringValue(). + \value Comment a comment node. Its value can be retrieved with stingValue(). + \value Attribute Signals an attribute node. Attribute events can only appear after Namespace events, or + if no such are sent, after the StartElement. In addition they must appear sequentially, + and each name must be unique. The ordering of attribute events is undefined and insignificant. + \value Namespace Signals a namespace binding. They occur very infrequently and are not needed for attributes + and elements. Namespace events can only appear after the StartElement event. The + ordering of namespace events is undefined and insignificant. + \value EndOfInput When next() is called after the last event, EndOfInput is returned. + + \sa AbstractXmlPullProvider::current() + */ + +/*! + Constucts a AbstractXmlPullProvider instance. + */ +AbstractXmlPullProvider::AbstractXmlPullProvider() +{ +} + +/*! + Destructs this AbstractXmlPullProvider. + */ +AbstractXmlPullProvider::~AbstractXmlPullProvider() +{ +} + +/*! + \fn Event AbstractXmlPullProvider::next() = 0; + Advances this AbstractXmlPullProvider, and returns the new event. + + \sa current() + */ + +/*! + \fn Event AbstractXmlPullProvider::current() const = 0; + Returns the event that next() returned the last time it was called.
