Hi Henning,
def startElement(self, name, attrs): self._queue.append(name) # keep the order of processed tags handler = str('_start_'+name) if hasattr(self, handler): self.__class__.__dict__[handler](self, attrs)
Is there a better syntax for self.__class__.__dict__[handler]?
how about:
handler = getattr(self, str('_start_'+name),None) # fetch the actual bound method
if handler is not None:
handler( attrs )
or something like that? I'm not sure why you're using the __class__.__dict__ attributes in the first place, so maybe what I suggest can't work.
And where should the "output" go to?
All examples use print statements in the element handlers.
I wrote those get... methods - but I guess they don't belong in the XML handler, but perhaps in the parser or somewhere else.
It works, but I don't think it's good design.
I've not uesd the sax stuff myself.. but I'd say you can either save it in the handler, as you're doing, or pass some kind structure/object to the handler's constructor that it will use to save away the content it finds.
good luck! -steve
def getPages(self): return self.pages.getSortedArray()
def getPage(self, no): return self.pages[no]
parser = xml.sax.make_parser() parser.setFeature(xml.sax.handler.feature_namespaces, 0) pxh = MyHandler() parser.setContentHandler(pxh) parser.parse(dateiname) for p in pxh.getPages(): ...
I should ask the last question on the twisted ML, I guess:
Further, if I'd like to use it in a twisted driven asynchronous app, would I let the parser run in a thread? (Or how can I make the parser non-blocking?)
