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;

                  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).
