.SH NAME
|
||||
xmlwf \- Determines if an XML document is well-formed
|
||||
.SH SYNOPSIS

||||
|
||||
\fBxmlwf\fR [ \fB-s\fR] [ \fB-n\fR] [ \fB-p\fR] [ \fB-x\fR] [ \fB-e \fIencoding\fB\fR] [ \fB-w\fR] [ \fB-d \fIoutput-dir\fB\fR] [ \fB-c\fR] [ \fB-m\fR] [ \fB-r\fR] [ \fB-t\fR] [ \fB-v\fR] [ \fBfile ...\fR]
|
||||
|
||||
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
\fBxmlwf\fR uses the Expat library to
|
||||
determine if an XML document is well-formed. It is
|
||||
non-validating.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
If you do not specify any files on the command-line, and you
|
||||
have a recent version of \fBxmlwf\fR, the
|
||||
input file will be read from standard input.
|
||||
.SH "WELL-FORMED DOCUMENTS"
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
A well-formed document must adhere to the
|
||||
following rules:
|
||||
.TP 0.2i
|
||||
\(bu
|
||||
The file begins with an XML declaration. For instance,
|
||||
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>.
|
||||
\fBNOTE:\fR
|
||||
\fBxmlwf\fR does not currently
|
||||
check for a valid XML declaration.
|
||||
.TP 0.2i
|
||||
\(bu
|
||||
Every start tag is either empty (<tag/>)
|
||||
or has a corresponding end tag.
|
||||
.TP 0.2i
|
||||
\(bu
|
||||
There is exactly one root element. This element must contain
|
||||
all other elements in the document. Only comments, white
|
||||
space, and processing instructions may come after the close
|
||||
of the root element.
|
||||
.TP 0.2i
|
||||
\(bu
|
||||
All elements nest properly.
|
||||
.TP 0.2i
|
||||
\(bu
|
||||
All attribute values are enclosed in quotes (either single
|
||||
or double).
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
If the document has a DTD, and it strictly complies with that
|
||||
DTD, then the document is also considered \fBvalid\fR.
|
||||
\fBxmlwf\fR is a non-validating parser --
|
||||
it does not check the DTD. However, it does support
|
||||
external entities (see the \fB-x\fR option).
|
||||
.SH "OPTIONS"
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
When an option includes an argument, you may specify the argument either
|
||||
separately ("\fB-d\fR output") or concatenated with the
|
||||
option ("\fB-d\fRoutput"). \fBxmlwf\fR
|
||||
supports both.
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
\fB-c\fR
|
||||
If the input file is well-formed and \fBxmlwf\fR
|
||||
doesn't encounter any errors, the input file is simply copied to
|
||||
the output directory unchanged.
|
||||
This implies no namespaces (turns off \fB-n\fR) and
|
||||
requires \fB-d\fR to specify an output file.
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
\fB-d output-dir\fR
|
||||
Specifies a directory to contain transformed
|
||||
representations of the input files.
|
||||
By default, \fB-d\fR outputs a canonical representation
|
||||
(described below).
|
||||
You can select different output formats using \fB-c\fR
|
||||
and \fB-m\fR.
|
||||
|
||||
The output filenames will
|
||||
be exactly the same as the input filenames or "STDIN" if the input is
|
||||
coming from standard input. Therefore, you must be careful that the
|
||||
output file does not go into the same directory as the input
|
||||
file. Otherwise, \fBxmlwf\fR will delete the
|
||||
input file before it generates the output file (just like running
|
||||
cat < file > file in most shells).
|
||||
|
||||
Two structurally equivalent XML documents have a byte-for-byte
|
||||
identical canonical XML representation.
|
||||
Note that ignorable white space is considered significant and
|
||||
is treated equivalently to data.
|
||||
More on canonical XML can be found at
|
||||
http://www.jclark.com/xml/canonxml.html .
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
\fB-e encoding\fR
|
||||
Specifies the character encoding for the document, overriding
|
||||
any document encoding declaration. \fBxmlwf\fR
|
||||
supports four built-in encodings:
|
||||
US-ASCII,
|
||||
UTF-8,
|
||||
UTF-16, and
|
||||
ISO-8859-1.
|
||||
Also see the \fB-w\fR option.
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
\fB-m\fR
|
||||
Outputs some strange sort of XML file that completely
|
||||
describes the input file, including character positions.
|
||||
Requires \fB-d\fR to specify an output file.
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
\fB-n\fR
|
||||
Turns on namespace processing. (describe namespaces)
|
||||
\fB-c\fR disables namespaces.
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
\fB-p\fR
|
||||
Tells xmlwf to process external DTDs and parameter
|
||||
entities.
|
||||
|
||||
Normally \fBxmlwf\fR never parses parameter
|
||||
entities. \fB-p\fR tells it to always parse them.
|
||||
\fB-p\fR implies \fB-x\fR.
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
\fB-r\fR
|
||||
Normally \fBxmlwf\fR memory-maps the XML file
|
||||
before parsing; this can result in faster parsing on many
|
||||
platforms.
|
||||
\fB-r\fR turns off memory-mapping and uses normal file
|
||||
IO calls instead.
|
||||
Of course, memory-mapping is automatically turned off
|
||||
when reading from standard input.
|
||||
|
||||
Use of memory-mapping can cause some platforms to report
|
||||
substantially higher memory usage for
|
||||
\fBxmlwf\fR, but this appears to be a matter of
|
||||
the operating system reporting memory in a strange way; there is
|
||||
not a leak in \fBxmlwf\fR.
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
\fB-s\fR
|
||||
Prints an error if the document is not standalone.
|
||||
A document is standalone if it has no external subset and no
|
||||
references to parameter entities.
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
\fB-t\fR
|
||||
Turns on timings. This tells Expat to parse the entire file,
|
||||
but not perform any processing.
|
||||
This gives a fairly accurate idea of the raw speed of Expat itself
|
||||
without client overhead.
|
||||
\fB-t\fR turns off most of the output options
|
||||
(\fB-d\fR, \fB-m\fR, \fB-c\fR,
|
||||
\&...).
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
\fB-v\fR
|
||||
Prints the version of the Expat library being used, including some
|
||||
information on the compile-time configuration of the library, and
|
||||
then exits.
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
\fB-w\fR
|
||||
Enables support for Windows code pages.
|
||||
Normally, \fBxmlwf\fR will throw an error if it
|
||||
runs across an encoding that it is not equipped to handle itself. With
|
||||
\fB-w\fR, xmlwf will try to use a Windows code
|
||||
page. See also \fB-e\fR.
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
\fB-x\fR
|
||||
Turns on parsing external entities.
|
||||
|
||||
Non-validating parsers are not required to resolve external
|
||||
entities, or even expand entities at all.
|
||||
Expat always expands internal entities (?),
|
||||
but external entity parsing must be enabled explicitly.
|
||||
|
||||
External entities are simply entities that obtain their
|
||||
data from outside the XML file currently being parsed.
|
||||
|
||||
This is an example of an internal entity:
|
||||
|
||||
.nf
|
||||
<!ENTITY vers '1.0.2'>
|
||||
.fi
|
||||
|
||||
And here are some examples of external entities:
|
||||
|
||||
.nf
|
||||
<!ENTITY header SYSTEM "header-&vers;.xml"> (parsed)
|
||||
<!ENTITY logo SYSTEM "logo.png" PNG> (unparsed)
|
||||
.fi
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
\fB--\fR
|
||||
(Two hyphens.)
|
||||
Terminates the list of options. This is only needed if a filename
|
||||
starts with a hyphen. For example:
|
||||
|
||||
.nf
|
||||
xmlwf -- -myfile.xml
|
||||
.fi
|
||||
|
||||
will run \fBxmlwf\fR on the file
|
||||
\fI-myfile.xml\fR.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
Older versions of \fBxmlwf\fR do not support
|
||||
reading from standard input.
|
||||
.SH "OUTPUT"
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
If an input file is not well-formed,
|
||||
\fBxmlwf\fR prints a single line describing
|
||||
the problem to standard output. If a file is well formed,
|
||||
\fBxmlwf\fR outputs nothing.
|
||||
Note that the result code is \fBnot\fR set.
|
||||
.SH "BUGS"
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
According to the W3C standard, an XML file without a
|
||||
declaration at the beginning is not considered well-formed.
|
||||
However, \fBxmlwf\fR allows this to pass.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
\fBxmlwf\fR returns a 0 - noerr result,
|
||||
even if the file is not well-formed. There is no good way for
|
||||
a program to use \fBxmlwf\fR to quickly
|
||||
check a file -- it must parse \fBxmlwf\fR's
|
||||
standard output.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The errors should go to standard error, not standard output.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
There should be a way to get \fB-d\fR to send its
|
||||
output to standard output rather than forcing the user to send
|
||||
it to a file.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
I have no idea why anyone would want to use the
|
||||
\fB-d\fR, \fB-c\fR, and
|
||||
\fB-m\fR options. If someone could explain it to
|
||||
me, I'd like to add this information to this manpage.

||||
