You need to provide a handler for resolving references and obtain the content they refer. In our case the element which has references is ref and the attribute indicating the referred resource is location. You will have to implement a Java extension class for obtaining the referred resources.
import ro.sync.ecss.extensions.api.AuthorReferenceResolver; import ro.sync.ecss.extensions.api.AuthorAccess; import ro.sync.ecss.extensions.api.node.AttrValue; import ro.sync.ecss.extensions.api.node.AuthorElement; import ro.sync.ecss.extensions.api.node.AuthorNode; public class ReferencesResolver implements AuthorReferenceResolver {
public boolean hasReferences(AuthorNode node) { boolean hasReferences = false; if (node.getType() == AuthorNode.NODE_TYPE_ELEMENT) { AuthorElement element = (AuthorElement) node; if ("ref".equals(element.getLocalName())) { AttrValue attrValue = element.getAttribute("location"); hasReferences = attrValue != null; } } return hasReferences; }
public String getDisplayName(AuthorNode node) { String displayName = "ref-fragment"; if (node.getType() == AuthorNode.NODE_TYPE_ELEMENT) { AuthorElement element = (AuthorElement) node; if ("ref".equals(element.getLocalName())) { AttrValue attrValue = element.getAttribute("location"); if (attrValue != null) { displayName = attrValue.getValue(); } } } return displayName; }
public SAXSource resolveReference( AuthorNode node, String systemID, AuthorAccess authorAccess, EntityResolver entityResolver) { SAXSource saxSource = null; if (node.getType() == AuthorNode.NODE_TYPE_ELEMENT) { AuthorElement element = (AuthorElement) node; if ("ref".equals(element.getLocalName())) { AttrValue attrValue = element.getAttribute("location"); if (attrValue != null) { String attrStringVal = attrValue.getValue(); try { URL absoluteUrl = new URL(new URL(systemID), authorAccess.correctURL(attrStringVal)); InputSource inputSource = entityResolver.resolveEntity(null, absoluteUrl.toString()); if(inputSource == null) { inputSource = new InputSource(absoluteUrl.toString()); } XMLReader xmlReader = authorAccess.newNonValidatingXMLReader(); xmlReader.setEntityResolver(entityResolver); saxSource = new SAXSource(xmlReader, inputSource); } catch (MalformedURLException e) { logger.error(e, e); } catch (SAXException e) { logger.error(e, e); } catch (IOException e) { logger.error(e, e); } } } } return saxSource; }
public String getDisplayName(AuthorNode node) { String displayName = "ref-fragment"; if (node.getType() == AuthorNode.NODE_TYPE_ELEMENT) { AuthorElement element = (AuthorElement) node; if ("ref".equals(element.getLocalName())) { AttrValue attrValue = element.getAttribute("location"); if (attrValue != null) { displayName = attrValue.getValue(); } } } return displayName; }
public String getReferenceSystemID(AuthorNode node, AuthorAccess authorAccess) { String systemID = null; if (node.getType() == AuthorNode.NODE_TYPE_ELEMENT) { AuthorElement element = (AuthorElement) node; if ("ref".equals(element.getLocalName())) { AttrValue attrValue = element.getAttribute("location"); if (attrValue != null) { String attrStringVal = attrValue.getValue(); try { URL absoluteUrl = new URL(node.getXMLBaseURL(), authorAccess.correctURL(attrStringVal)); systemID = absoluteUrl.toString(); } catch (MalformedURLException e) { logger.error(e, e); } } } } return systemID; }
In the listing below, the XML document contains the ref element:
<ref location="referred.xml">Reference</ref>
When no reference resolver is specified, the reference has the following layout:
Reference with no specified reference resolver
When the above implementation is configured, the reference has the expected layout:
Reference with reference resolver
