Sjoerd Mullender 1c8feae411 New method getnamespace.
Since the application never gets to see the namespace abbreviation
used in the XML document, but some applications may need to know them,
we provide this method.

Thomas Wouters 7e47402264 Spelling fixes supplied by Rob W. W. Hooft. All these are fixes in either
comments, docstrings or error messages. I fixed two minor things in
test_winreg.py ("didn't" -> "Didn't" and "Didnt" -> "Didn't").

There is a minor style issue involved: Guido seems to have preferred English
grammar (behaviour, honour) in a couple places. This patch changes that to
American, which is the more prominent style in the source. I prefer English
myself, so if English is preferred, I'd be happy to supply a patch myself ;)

Sjoerd Mullender f985064781 Better error handling of bad entity references. Before when an & in
an attribute value was not escaped, you could get two syntax errors:
one about a missing semicolon and one about an unknown entity.  Now
you get only one about a bogus ampersand.

Sjoerd Mullender 5baaf66525 2 fixes plus one extension:
- Actually count the linefeeds in a the CDATA content.
- Don't call the endtag handler for an unmatched endtag (this makes
  the base class simpler since it doesn't have to deal with unopened
  endtags).
- If the __init__ method is called with keyword argument
  translate_attribute_references=0, don't attempt to translate
  character and entity references in attribute values.

Guido van Rossum d468bd3463 Sjoerd Mullender:
These two fixes were approved by me.

Peter Kropf:
There's a problem with the xmllib module when used with JPython. Specifically,
the JPython re module has trouble with the () characters in strings passed into
re.compile.

Spiros Papadimitriou:
I just downloaded xmllib.py ver. 0.3 from python.org and there
seems to be a slight typo:  Line 654 ("tag = self.stack[-1][0]"
in parse_endtag),  is indented one level more than it should be.
I just thought I'd let you know...

Guido van Rossum 4b8c6eaf8b Actually, the previous batch's comment should have been different;
*this* set of patches is Ka-Ping's final sweep:

The attached patches update the standard library so that all modules
have docstrings beginning with one-line summaries.

A new docstring was added to formatter.  The docstring for os.py
was updated to mention nt, os2, ce in addition to posix, dos, mac.

"""
Added some optional arguments to the XMLParser __init__ method to
specify that selected non-standard constructs are to be accepted.
Also removed the documentation for handle_entityrefs since it isn't
used.

The version is incremented to 0.3.

Guido van Rossum 1f2e09bc45 Fix (sanctioned by Sjoerd) for a problem reported by Andreas Faerber:
all processing instruction target names containing 'xml' were
rejected, instead (as the standard rejects) only the name 'xml' itself
(or case variants thereof).

"""Sjoerd's version stores unbound methods.  that's not good enough ;-)

Guido van Rossum cc2c291b7f Patch by Sjoerd Mullender to placate /F:
Fix leaking of instances by removing the elements variable that we
created on closing the parser.  The elements variable is now created
in the reset() method, so that the sequence close(); reset();
... works.
Also, add the name of the entity reference that wasn't found to the
error message.

Guido van Rossum fe64935cf9 Patch by Sjoerd Mullender for better compatibility with the version
from Python 1.5.1:

If after __init__ finishes no new elements variable was created, this
patch will search the instance's namespace for all attributes whose
name start with start_ or end_ and put their value in a new elements
instance variable.

Guido van Rossum 91c8f5901b Sjoerd Mullender:
- Fixed a bug where a syntax error was reported when a document
  started with white space.  (White space at the start of a document
  is valid if there is no XML declaration.)
- Improved the speed quite a bit for documents that don't make use of
  namespaces.

Here is my current version of xmllib.py and the documentation.  This
version has some API changes with respect to the version currently in
Python (also the one in 1.5.2a).
This version supports XML namespaces.

Guido van Rossum 204b65c50f Sjoerd patches the previous patch:
In literal mode, also don't do anything about entity and character
references, or about closing CDATA elements.

When literal mode is entered it should exit automatically when the
matching close tag of the last unclosed open tag is encountered.  This
patch fixes this.

Guido van Rossum eeb2f32aad Fixed a problem where xmllib didn't handle the tag
<sometag attrib=">">
correctly.
Also changed comparisons of re matches and searches into explicit
comparisons with None.

Guido van Rossum 45e2fbc2e7 Mass check-in after untabifying all files that need it. 1998-03-26 21:13:24 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 02505e4850 New version of xmllib from Sjoerd.
The main incompatibility is that the error reporting method is now
called as
 parser.syntax_error(msg)
instead of
 parser.syntax_error(lineno, msg)

This new version also has some code to deal with the <?xml?> and
<!DOCTYPE> tags at the start of an XML document.
The documentation has been updated, and a small test module has been
created.
