Just a quick warning, there's a couple of minor API changes coming soon in
the next release, I hope they don't cause too many problems for anyone.
The first one is in ElementHandler. Its becoming the following interface
instead.
public interface ElementHandler {
public void onStart( ElementPath path );
public void onEnd( ElementPath path );
}
For those making their own Element implementations the following other
change that may affect you.
I've made a performance patch in DocumentFactory from this
public Element createElement(QName qname, Attributes attributes) {
return createElement( qname );
}
to this.
public Element createElement(QName qname, Attributes attributes) {
return new DefaultElement(qname, attributes);
}
And there's now a constructor in DefaultElement like this...
import org.xml.sax.Attributes;
...
public DefaultElement(QName qname, Attributes attributes)
...
}
So next time you come to upgrade to a newer dom4j version or daily build
could you make sure you also override the createElement(QName, Attributes)
method to return your derived Element type and that you add a
MyElement(QName, Attributes) constructor too? Otherwise you won't get your
derived Element types returned when using using SAXReader.
Sorry about those changes - things should be pretty stable from now on.
(We're getting close to 1.0).
