DESCRIPTION

       The  functions  described  in  this manual allows to add C level coded event handler to an
       tDOM Tcl expat parser objects. A tDOM Tcl expat parser object is able to have several  Tcl
       scripts  and C functions associated with an specific event. If the event occurs, first the
       Tcl scripts then the C functions associated with the event are called in turn.

       A tDOM Tcl expat parser extension is an ordinary Tcl extension and loaded like every other
       Tcl extension. It must install at least one new Tcl Level command, that manipulates a tDOM
       Tcl expat parser object.

       A C level handler set is a data structure like this:

              typedef struct CHandlerSet {
                  struct CHandlerSet *nextHandlerSet;
                  char *name;                     /* refname of the handler set */
                  int ignoreWhiteCDATAs;          /* ignore 'white' CDATA sections */

                  void *userData;                 /* Handler set specific Data Structure;
                                                     the C handler set extention has to
                                                     malloc the needed structure in his
                                                     init func and has to provide a
                                                     cleanup func (to free it). */

                  CHandlerSet_userDataReset        resetProc;
                  CHandlerSet_userDataFree         freeProc;

                  /* C func for element start */
                  XML_StartElementHandler          elementstartcommand;
                  /* C func for element end */
                  XML_EndElementHandler            elementendcommand;
                  /* C func for character data */
                  XML_CharacterDataHandler         datacommand;
                  /* C func for namespace decl start */
                  XML_StartNamespaceDeclHandler    startnsdeclcommand;
                  /* C func for namespace decl end */
                  XML_EndNamespaceDeclHandler      endnsdeclcommand;
                  /* C func for processing instruction */
                  XML_ProcessingInstructionHandler picommand;
                  /* C func for default data */
                  XML_DefaultHandler               defaultcommand;
                  /* C func for unparsed entity declaration */
                  XML_NotationDeclHandler          notationcommand;
                  /* C func for external entity */
                  XML_ExternalEntityRefHandler     externalentitycommand;
                  /* C func for unknown encoding */
                  XML_UnknownEncodingHandler       unknownencodingcommand;
                  /* C func for comments */
                  XML_CommentHandler               commentCommand;
                  /* C func for "not standalone" docs */
                  XML_NotStandaloneHandler         notStandaloneCommand;
                  /* C func for CDATA section start */
                  XML_StartCdataSectionHandler     startCdataSectionCommand;
                  /* C func for CDATA section end */
                  XML_EndCdataSectionHandler       endCdataSectionCommand;
                  /* C func for !ELEMENT decl's */
                  XML_ElementDeclHandler           elementDeclCommand;
                  /* C func for !ATTLIST decl's */
                  XML_AttlistDeclHandler           attlistDeclCommand;
                  /* C func for !DOCTYPE decl's */
                  XML_StartDoctypeDeclHandler      startDoctypeDeclCommand;
                  /* C func for !DOCTYPE decl ends */
                  XML_EndDoctypeDeclHandler        endDoctypeDeclCommand;
                  /* C func for !ENTITY decls's */
                  XML_EntityDeclHandler            entityDeclCommand;
              } CHandlerSet;

       The types and the arguments of the event functions (XML_*) are exactly the same  like  the
       expat  lib  handler functions and described in detail in expat.h, see there. The extension
       has only to provided the handler functions needed;  it's  perfectly  OK  to  leave  unused
       handler slots as the are (they are initialized to NULL by CHandlerSetCreate).

       The name of this structure is used to identify the handler set.

       If  the flag ignoreWhiteCDATAs is set, element content which contain only whitespace isn't
       reported with the datacommand.

       The userData element points to the handler set specific data. The event handler  functions
       are called with this pointer as userData argument.

       resetProc and freeProc must have arguments that match the type
              void (Tcl_Interp *interp, void *userData)

       resetProc is called in case the parser is reseted with <parserObj> reset and should do any
       necessary cleanup and reinitializing to prepare the C handler set for a new XML  document.
       The freeProc is called, if the parser is deleted and should do memory cleanup etc.

       CHandlerSetCreate create a C handler set, gives it the name name and initializes any other
       element with NULL.

       CHandlerSetInstall adds the handlerSet to the parser expatObj. The parser has to be a tDOM
       Tcl expat parser object in the interpreter interp. The name of the C handler set has to be
       unique for the parser. Returns 0 in case of success. Returns 1 if expatObj isn't a  parser
       object  in  the  interpreter  interp. Returns 2 if this parser has already a C handler set
       with the handlerSet name.

       CHandlerSetRemove removes the C handler set referenced  by  the  handlerSetName  from  the
       parser  expatObj.  The  parser has to be a tDOM Tcl expat parser object in the interpreter
       interp. CHandlerSetRemove calls the freeProc function of  the  C  handler  set  structure,
       removes  the  handler  set  from  the  C handler set list and frees the handler structure.
       Returns 0 in case of success.  Returns  1  if  expatObj  isn't  a  parser  object  in  the
       interpreter interp. Returns 2 if this parser hasn't a C handler set named handlerSetName.

       CheckExpatParserObj  returns  1,  if  nameObj  is  a  tDOM  Tcl expat parser object in the
       interpreter interp, otherwise it returns 0. Example:

              int
              TclExampleObjCmd(dummy, interp, objc, objv)
                   ClientData dummy;
                   Tcl_Interp *interp;
                   int objc;
                   Tcl_Obj *CONST objv[];
              {
                  char          *method;
                  CHandlerSet   *handlerSet;
                  int            methodIndex, result;
                  simpleCounter *counter;

                  static char *exampleMethods[] = {
                      "enable", "getresult", "remove",
                      NULL
                  };
                  enum exampleMethod {
                      m_enable, m_getresult, m_remove
                  };

                  if (objc != 3) {
                      Tcl_WrongNumArgs (interp, 1, objv, example_usage);
                      return TCL_ERROR;
                  }

                  if (!CheckExpatParserObj (interp, objv[1])) {
                      Tcl_SetResult (interp, "First argument has to be a expat parser object", NULL);
                      return TCL_ERROR;
                  }
                  /* ... */

       CHandlerSetGet  returns  a  pointer  to  the  C  handler  Set  referenced  by   the   name
       handlerSetName of the parser object expatObj. expatObj has to be an expat parser object in
       the interpreter interp. Returns NULL in case of error.

       CHandlerSetGetUserData returns a pointer to the userData of the C handler  set  referenced
       by  the  name  handlerSetName  of  the parser object expatObj. expatObj has to be an expat
       parser object in the interpreter interp. Returns NULL in case of error.

       GetExpatInfo Is a helper function that returns a pointer to the TclGenExpatInfo  structure
       of  the  tDOM  Tcl  expat  parser object expatObj. The expatObj has to be a tDOM Tcl expat
       parser object in the interpreter interp. This is  most  useful,  to  set  the  application
       status of the parser object.

       See  the  simple  but  full functionally example in the extensions/example dir or the more
       complex example tnc in the extensions/tnc dir (a simple DTD validation extension).
