Method Detail

normalizeLangValue

public static java.lang.String normalizeLangValue(java.lang.String value)

Normalize an xml:lang value so that comparisons are effectively case insensitive as required by RFC 3066 (which superceeds RFC 1766). The normalization rules:

• The primary subtag is lower case, the suggested practice of ISO 639.
• All 2 letter secondary subtags are upper case, the suggested practice of ISO 3166.
• All other subtags are lower case.

Parameters:

value - raw value

Returns:

Returns the normalized value.

isXMLName

public static boolean isXMLName(java.lang.String name)

Simple check for valid XMLNames. Within ASCII range
":" | [A-Z] | "_" | [a-z] | [#xC0-#xD6] | [#xD8-#xF6]
are accepted, above all characters (which is not entirely correct according to the XML Spec.

Parameters:

name - an XML Name

Returns:

Return true if the name is correct.

isXMLNameNS

public static boolean isXMLNameNS(java.lang.String name)

Checks if the value is a legal "unqualified" XML name, as defined in the XML Namespaces proposed recommendation. These are XML names, except that they must not contain a colon.

Parameters:

name - the value to check

Returns:

Returns true if the name is a valid "unqualified" XML name.

escapeXML

public static java.lang.String escapeXML(java.lang.String value,
                                         boolean forAttribute,
                                         boolean escapeWhitespaces)

Serializes the node value in XML encoding. Its used for tag bodies and attributes.
Note: The attribute is always limited by quotes, thats why ' is never serialized.
Note: Control chars are written unescaped, but if the user uses others than tab, LF and CR the resulting XML will become invalid.

Parameters:

value - a string

forAttribute - flag if string is attribute value (need to additional escape quotes)

escapeWhitespaces - Decides if LF, CR and TAB are escaped.

Returns:

Returns the value ready for XML output.
