Method Detail

importGraphsFromString

public static List<DepGraph> importGraphsFromString(String s)
                                             throws SAXException

Returns a list of dependency graphs given an XML string. WARNING: XML shouldn't be put into a Java string -- preferably use importGraphsFromFile instead.

Parameters:

s - the XML string.

Returns:

the list of dependency graphs.

Throws:

SAXException - if the XML is invalid.

importGraphsFromFile

public static List<DepGraph> importGraphsFromFile(String fn)
                                           throws SAXException,
                                                  IOException

Returns a list of dependency graphs read from a file.

Parameters:

fn - the file name.

Returns:

the list of dependency graphs.

Throws:

SAXException - if the XML is invalid.

IOException - if there was an IO problem.

handleGraphs

public static void handleGraphs(InputSource is,
                                Procedure<DepGraph> callback)
                         throws SAXException,
                                IOException

Reads dependency graphs from an InputSource and calls a callback for each graph.

Parameters:

is - the input source.

callback - the callback.

Throws:

SAXException - if the XML was invalid.

IOException - if there was an IO problem.

handleGraphsFromFile

public static void handleGraphsFromFile(String fn,
                                        Procedure<DepGraph> callback)
                                 throws IOException,
                                        SAXException

Reads dependency graphs from a file and calls a callback for each graph.

Parameters:

fn - the file.

callback - the callback.

Throws:

SAXException - if the XML was invalid.
