Parsing an XML File

How to Modify the Behavior of the XML Reader

IlpDataSourceLoader loader = new IlpDataSourceLoader(inputSource,
                                                     dataSource);
XMLReader reader = loader.getXMLReader();
reader.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/validation",false);
loader.parse();

The example below loads a template file into the data source. It shows how to create an identifier factory to modify parent identifiers of root objects. The complete sample code is located in the following directory:

How to Load a File into a Data Source

final Object parentID = expandedObject.getIdentifier();
 
// Create an identifier factory that prepends the parent ID to
// all identifiers read from the template.
IlpIdentifierFactory idFactory = new IlpIdentifierFactory(){
  public Object getIdentifier (Object previousIdentifier){
    return parentID.toString() + "/" + previousIdentifier.toString();
  }
};
// Load the template into the datasource
// Load the template objects under the parent node, and transform
// their IDs so they are unique
IlpDataSourceLoader loader = new IlpDataSourceLoader(templateFileName,
                                                     mainDataSource);
loader.setIdentifierFactory(idFactory);
loader.setParentIdOfRootObjects(parentID);
loader.parse();
