<li><em>I want to install my own copy of libxml2 in my home directory

|

<p>There are many different ways to accomplish this. Here is one way
|
||||
todo this under Linux. Suppose your home directory is
|
||||
<code>/home/user.</code>Then:</p>
|
||||
<ul><li>Create a subdirectory, let's call it <code>myxml</code></li>
|
||||
<li>unpack the libxml2 distribution into that subdirectory</li>
|
||||
<li>chdir into the unpacked distribution
|
||||
(<code>/home/user/myxml/libxml2 </code>)</li>
|
||||
<li>configure the library using the "<code>--prefix</code>" switch,
|
||||
specifying an installation subdirectory in
|
||||
<code>/home/user/myxml</code>, e.g.
|
||||
<p><code>./configure --prefix /home/user/myxml/xmlinst</code> {other
|
||||
configuration options}</p>

||||
<li>chdir into the unpacked distribution(<code>/home/user/myxml/libxml2

<p><code>./configure --prefix
|
||||
/home/user/myxml/xmlinst</code>{otherconfiguration options}</p>
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
<li>now run <code>make</code> followed by <code>make install</code></li>
|
||||
<li>At this point, the installation subdirectory contains the complete
|
||||
"private" include files, library files and binary program files (e.g.
|
||||
xmllint), located in
|
||||
<p><code>/home/user/myxml/xmlinst/lib,
|
||||
/home/user/myxml/xmlinst/include </code> and <code>
|

/home/user/myxml/xmlinst/bin</code></p>

|
||||
point of fixing them in a timely fashion. The best way to report a bug is to
|
||||
use the <a href="http://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?product=libxml2">Gnome
|
||||
bug tracking database</a> (make sure to use the "libxml2" module name). I
|
||||
look at reports there regularly and it's good to have a reminder when a bug
|
||||
is still open. Be sure to specify that the bug is for the package libxml2.</p><p>For small problems you can try to get help on IRC, the #xml channel on
|
||||
irc.gnome.org (port 6667) usually have a few person subscribed which may help
|
||||
(but there is no garantee and if a real issue is raised it should go on the
|
||||
mailing-list for archival).</p><p>There is also a mailing-list <a href="mailto:xml@gnome.org">xml@gnome.org</a> for libxml, with an <a href="http://mail.gnome.org/archives/xml/">on-line archive</a> (<a href="http://xmlsoft.org/messages">old</a>). To subscribe to this list,
|
||||
please visit the <a href="http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/xml">associated Web</a> page and
|
||||
follow the instructions. <strong>Do not send code, I won't debug it</strong>
|
||||
(but patches are really appreciated!).</p><p>Please note that with the current amount of virus and SPAM, sending mail
|
||||
to the list without being subscribed won't work. There is *far too many
|
||||
bounces* (in the order of a thousand a day !) I cannot approve them manually
|
||||
anymore. If your mail to the list bounced waiting for administrator approval,
|
||||
it is LOST ! Repost it and fix the problem triggering the error. Also please
|

note that <span style="color: #FF0000; background-color: #FFFFFF">emails with

libxml2 (Note: it is possible to completely override libxml2 default catalog
|

by using <a href="html/libxml-parser.html">xmlSetExternalEntityLoader</a> to

plug an application specific resolver).</p><p>Basically libxml2 support 2 catalog lists:</p><ul><li>the default one, global shared by all the application</li>
|

<li>a per-document catalog, this one is built if the document uses the
|
||||
<code>oasis-xml-catalog</code> PIs to specify its own catalog list, it is
|
||||
associated to the parser context and destroyed when the parsing context
|
||||
is destroyed.</li>
|
||||
</ul><p>the document one will be used first if it exists.</p><h4>Initialization routines:</h4><p>xmlInitializeCatalog(), xmlLoadCatalog() and xmlLoadCatalogs() should be
|
||||
used at startup to initialize the catalog, if the catalog should be
|
||||
initialized with specific values xmlLoadCatalog() or xmlLoadCatalogs()
|
||||
should be called before xmlInitializeCatalog() which would otherwise do a
|
||||
default initialization first.</p><p>The xmlCatalogAddLocal() call is used by the parser to grow the document
|
||||
own catalog list if needed.</p><h4>Preferences setup:</h4><p>The XML Catalog spec requires the possibility to select default
|
||||
preferences between public and system delegation,
|
||||
xmlCatalogSetDefaultPrefer() allows this, xmlCatalogSetDefaults() and
|
||||
xmlCatalogGetDefaults() allow to control if XML Catalogs resolution should

be forbidden, allowed for global catalog, for document catalog or both, the
|

default is to allow both.</p><p>And of course xmlCatalogSetDebug() allows to generate debug messages
|

(through the xmlGenericError() mechanism).</p><h4>Querying routines:</h4><p>xmlCatalogResolve(), xmlCatalogResolveSystem(), xmlCatalogResolvePublic()
|
||||
and xmlCatalogResolveURI() are relatively explicit if you read the XML

Catalog specification they correspond to section 7 algorithms, they should

also work if you have loaded an SGML catalog with a simplified semantic.</p><p>xmlCatalogLocalResolve() and xmlCatalogLocalResolveURI() are the same but

the per-document equivalent.</p><p>xmlCatalogAdd() and xmlCatalogRemove() are used to dynamically modify the

first catalog in the global list, and xmlCatalogDump() allows to dump a

catalog state, those routines are primarily designed for xmlcatalog, I'm not

sure that exposing more complex interfaces (like navigation ones) would be

really useful.</p><p>The xmlParseCatalogFile() is a function used to load XML Catalog files,

|

by using Unicode. Any conformant XML parser has to support the UTF-8 and

||||
UTF-16 default encodings which can both express the full unicode ranges. UTF8
|
||||
is a variable length encoding whose greatest points are to reuse the same
|
||||
encoding for ASCII and to save space for Western encodings, but it is a bit
|
||||
more complex to handle in practice. UTF-16 use 2 bytes per character (and
|
||||
sometimes combines two pairs), it makes implementation easier, but looks a
|
||||
bit overkill for Western languages encoding. Moreover the XML specification
|
||||
allows the document to be encoded in other encodings at the condition that
|
||||
they are clearly labeled as such. For example the following is a wellformed
|
||||
XML document encoded in ISO-8859-1 and using accentuated letters that we

French like for both markup and content:</p><pre><?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

original document, for examples when adding a text node to a document,

the content would have to be provided in the document encoding, i.e. the

client code would have to check it before hand, make sure it's conformant

to the encoding, etc ... Very hard in practice, though in some specific

cases this may make sense.</li>

<li>the second decision was which encoding. From the XML spec only UTF8 and

UTF16 really makes sense as being the two only encodings for which there
|

is mandatory support. UCS-4 (32 bits fixed size encoding) could be
|

considered an intelligent choice too since it's a direct Unicode mapping

support. I selected UTF-8 on the basis of efficiency and compatibility

with surrounding software:

<ul><li>UTF-8 while a bit more complex to convert from/to (i.e. slightly

more costly to import and export CPU wise) is also far more compact

than UTF-16 (and UCS-4) for a majority of the documents I see it used
|

for right now (RPM RDF catalogs, advogato data, various configuration

file formats, etc.) and the key point for today's computer
|

architecture is efficient uses of caches. If one nearly double the

memory requirement to store the same amount of data, this will trash

caches (main memory/external caches/internal caches) and my take is

that this harms the system far more than the CPU requirements needed

remove it from thebuffer and replace it with the associated charRef

encoding &#123; andresume the conversion. This guarantees that any

document will be savedwithout losses (except for markup names where this
|
||||
is not legal, this isa problem in the current version, in practice avoid
|
||||
using non-asciicharacters for tag or attribute names). A special "ascii"

~/XML -> </pre><p>The same processing is applied (and reuse most of the code) for HTML I18N
|

processing. Looking up and modifying the content encoding is a bit more
|
||||
difficult since it is located in a <meta> tag under the <head>,
|
||||
so a couple of functions htmlGetMetaEncoding() and htmlSetMetaEncoding() have
|
||||
been provided. The parser also attempts to switch encoding on the fly when

goal is to be able to parse document whose encoding is supported but where
|

the name differs (for example from the default set of names accepted by
|
||||
iconv). The following functions allow to register and handle new aliases for
|
||||
existing encodings. Once registered libxml2 will automatically lookup the
|
||||
aliases when handling a document:</p><ul><li>int xmlAddEncodingAlias(const char *name, const char *alias);</li>

<a href="http://www.gnome.org/">Gnome</a> project. <a href="http://www.w3.org/XML/">XML is a standard</a> for building tag-based
|

structured documents/data.</p><p>Here are some key points about libxml:</p><ul><li>Libxml2 exports Push (progressive) and Pull (blocking) type parser
|
||||
interfaces for both XML and HTML.</li>
|
||||
<li>Libxml2 can do DTD validation at parse time, using a parsed document
|
||||
instance, or with an arbitrary DTD.</li>
|
||||
<li>Libxml2 includes complete <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath">XPath</a>, <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xptr">XPointer</a> and <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xinclude">XInclude</a> implementations.</li>
|
||||
<li>It is written in plain C, making as few assumptions as possible, and
|
||||
sticking closely to ANSI C/POSIX for easy embedding. Works on
|
||||
Linux/Unix/Windows, ported to a number of other platforms.</li>
|
||||
<li>Basic support for HTTP and FTP client allowing applications to fetch
|
||||
remote resources.</li>

|
||||
tag-basedstructured documents/data.</p><p>Here are some key points about libxml:</p><ul><li>Libxml2 exports Push (progressive) and Pull (blocking) type
|
||||
parserinterfaces for both XML and HTML.</li>
|
||||
<li>Libxml2 can do DTD validation at parse time, using a parsed
|
||||
documentinstance, or with an arbitrary DTD.</li>
|
||||
<li>Libxml2 includes complete <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath">XPath</a>, <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xptr">XPointer</a>and <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xinclude">XInclude</a>implementations.</li>
|
||||
<li>It is written in plain C, making as few assumptions as possible,
|
||||
andsticking closely to ANSI C/POSIX for easy embedding. Works
|
||||
onLinux/Unix/Windows, ported to a number of other platforms.</li>
|
||||
<li>Basic support for HTTP and FTP client allowing applications to
|
||||
fetchremote resources.</li>
|
||||
<li>The design is modular, most of the extensions can be compiled out.</li>
|
||||
<li>The internal document representation is as close as possible to the <a href="http://www.w3.org/DOM/">DOM</a> interfaces.</li>
|
||||
<li>Libxml2 also has a <a href="http://www.megginson.com/SAX/index.html">SAX like interface</a>;

possible. For example, <code>"http://www.gnome.org/gnumeric/1.0/"</code> is a

good namespace scheme.</p><p>Then when you load a file, make sure that a namespace carrying the

version-independent prefix is installed on the root element of your document,

namespace checking on the prefix value. <foo:text> may be exactly the

same as <bar:text> in another document. What really matters is the URI

associated with the element or the attribute, not the prefix string (which is

just a shortcut for the full URI). In libxml, element and attributes have an

the content for a family of XML files. This is part of the XML 1.0

specification, and allows one to describe and verify that a given document

instance conforms to the set of rules detailing its structure and content.</p><p>Validation is the process of checking a document against a DTD (more

generally against a set of construction rules).</p><p>The validation process and building DTDs are the two most difficult parts

of the XML life cycle. Briefly a DTD defines all the possible elements to be

found within your document, what is the formal shape of your document tree
|
||||
(by defining the allowed content of an element; either text, a regular
|

expression for the allowed list of children, or mixed content i.e. both text

and children). The DTD also defines the valid attributes for all elements and

the types of those attributes.</p><h3><a name="definition1" id="definition1">The definition</a></h3><p>The <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml">W3C XML Recommendation</a> (<a href="http://www.xml.com/axml/axml.html">Tim Bray's annotated version of

something permanent or something which can evolve over time can be radically

different. Really complex DTDs like DocBook ones are flexible but quite
|
||||
harder to design. I will just focus on DTDs for a formats with a fixed simple
|

structure. It is just a set of basic rules, and definitely not exhaustive nor

|

really good thing to do if you want others to validate your document.</li>
|

<li>It is also possible to associate a <code>PUBLIC</code> identifier (a

magic string) so that the DTD is looked up in catalogs on the client side

without having to locate it on the web.</li>
|

<li>A DTD contains a set of element and attribute declarations, but they

don't define what the root of the document should be. This is explicitly

told to the parser/validator as the first element of the

</ul><h4><a name="Declaring2" id="Declaring2">Declaring elements</a>:</h4><p>The following declares an element <code>spec</code>:</p><p><code><!ELEMENT spec (front, body, back?)></code></p><p>It also expresses that the spec element contains one <code>front</code>,
|

one <code>body</code> and one optional <code>back</code> children elements in
|
||||
this order. The declaration of one element of the structure and its content
|
||||
are done in a single declaration. Similarly the following declares
|
||||
<code>div1</code> elements:</p><p><code><!ELEMENT div1 (head, (p | list | note)*, div2?)></code></p><p>which means div1 contains one <code>head</code> then a series of optional
|
||||
<code>p</code>, <code>list</code>s and <code>note</code>s and then an
|
||||
optional <code>div2</code>. And last but not least an element can contain
|
||||
text:</p><p><code><!ELEMENT b (#PCDATA)></code></p><p><code>b</code> contains text or being of mixed content (text and elements
|
||||
in no particular order):</p><p><code><!ELEMENT p (#PCDATA|a|ul|b|i|em)*></code></p><p><code>p </code>can contain text or <code>a</code>, <code>ul</code>,
|
||||
<code>b</code>, <code>i </code>or <code>em</code> elements in no particular
|
||||
order.</p><h4><a name="Declaring1" id="Declaring1">Declaring attributes</a>:</h4><p>Again the attributes declaration includes their content definition:</p><p><code><!ATTLIST termdef name CDATA #IMPLIED></code></p><p>means that the element <code>termdef</code> can have a <code>name</code>
|
||||
attribute containing text (<code>CDATA</code>) and which is optional
|
||||
(<code>#IMPLIED</code>). The attribute value can also be defined within a
|
||||
set:</p><p><code><!ATTLIST list type (bullets|ordered|glossary)
|
||||
"ordered"></code></p><p>means <code>list</code> element have a <code>type</code> attribute with 3
|
||||
allowed values "bullets", "ordered" or "glossary" and which default to
|
||||
"ordered" if the attribute is not explicitly specified.</p><p>The content type of an attribute can be text (<code>CDATA</code>),
|

anchor/reference/references

(<code>ID</code>/<code>IDREF</code>/<code>IDREFS</code>), entity(ies)
|

(<code>ENTITY</code>/<code>ENTITIES</code>) or name(s)

(<code>NMTOKEN</code>/<code>NMTOKENS</code>). The following defines that a

of type <code>ID</code>, usable for reference from attribute of type

IDREF:</p><p><code><!ATTLIST chapter id ID #IMPLIED></code></p><p>The last value of an attribute definition can be <code>#REQUIRED

the parser. Creating an input from a filename or an URI string is done

<li>the URI string is checked against the existing registered handlersusing

|

<li>if an encoding change is detected it will be installed on the
|

inputbuffer, providing buffering and efficient use of the
