Re: [dom4j-user] SAXResult with XMLFilter chain

[James Strachan]

Hi Knut   This is a SAX / JAXP question really I guess but I'll try help. There's some similar code to do this already in dom4j. Its in SAXReader in the installXMLFilter method at line 579. The code block is...      // add a new xmlFilter to the xmlReader's pipeline...           XMLReader xmlReader;           XMLFilter xmlFilter ...;         if ( xmlFilter != null ) {             // find the root XMLFilter             XMLFilter root = xmlFilter;             while (true) {                 XMLReader parent = root.getParent();                 if ( parent instanceof XMLFilter ) {                     root = (XMLFilter) parent;                 }                 else {                     break;                 }             }             root.setParent(xmlReader);   i.e. that the XMLReader is the topmost parent.   Does this help you at all?

I am using the dom4j and JAXP APIs. I do this by pushing the result of the transformation into a SAXResult that gets instantiated with the filter as argument. The actual filter is an object of class XMLWriter that writes its output into a StringWriter. My problem: everything works fine when I use one XMLWriter to filter the SAX events. But I would like to chain filters to provide further processing of the transformation result. I tried to do this by calling the #setParent method with no success. I tried some other variations with no luck. No more than the filter is called that is passed in the SAXResult constructor.
