Public methods
getColumnNumber
abstract fun getColumnNumber(): Int
Return the character position where the current document event ends.
Warning: The return value from the method is intended only as an approximation for the sake of error reporting; it is not intended to provide sufficient information to edit the character content of the original XML document.
The return value is an approximation of the column number in the document entity or external parsed entity where the markup that triggered the event appears.
| Return |
Int |
The column number, or -1 if none is available. |
getLineNumber
abstract fun getLineNumber(): Int
Return the line number where the current document event ends.
Warning: The return value from the method is intended only as an approximation for the sake of error reporting; it is not intended to provide sufficient information to edit the character content of the original XML document.
The return value is an approximation of the line number in the document entity or external parsed entity where the markup that triggered the event appears.
| Return |
Int |
The line number, or -1 if none is available. |
getPublicId
abstract fun getPublicId(): String!
Return the public identifier for the current document event.
The return value is the public identifier of the document entity or of the external parsed entity in which the markup that triggered the event appears.
| Return |
String! |
A string containing the public identifier, or null if none is available. |
getSystemId
abstract fun getSystemId(): String!
Return the system identifier for the current document event.
The return value is the system identifier of the document entity or of the external parsed entity in which the markup that triggered the event appears.
If the system identifier is a URL, the parser must resolve it fully before passing it to the application.
| Return |
String! |
A string containing the system identifier, or null if none is available. |
