2014-05-05Encapsulated common parts of external function inplementationsAdrian Kummerländer
* common parts were moved into CRTP template base class _FunctionBase_ * all external functions are derived from that class ** only have to implement _constructDocument_ member method ** currently only supports a single string input parameter which is enough for now * this change condenses external funtion implementations to the essential and should increase readability as well as maintainability
2014-05-04Moved DOM document construction logic into local functionsAdrian Kummerländer
* this change makes the underlying similarity between all currently implemented external functions obvious * they more or less only differ in their document construction logic ** i.e. there is a possibility for a second layer of abstraction between the classes derived from xalan::Function and the actual functionality * added boost::filesystem::path taking overload of the _iterate_ member method to FilesystemGuard ** this overload functions as the _master_ overload that is called by all other overloads which merely perform type conversion and path resolution ** this overload doesn't perform path resolution
2014-05-04Changed FilesystemContext constructor to accept xalan::Locator*Adrian Kummerländer
* all instantiations of a FilesystemContext are currently based on information provided by a xalan::Locator instance provided to the external function execute member method * this change hides the stylesheet path extraction from the actual function implementation
2014-05-03Revamped DomDocumentCache with regard to thread safetyAdrian Kummerländer
* DomDocumentCache::item class now is _finalized_ by default and doesn't perform document instantiation, just lifetime management ** xercesc::DOMDocument is instantiated inside the external function implementations and committed to the document cache for conversion to a xalan document * added mutex with scoped lock to prevent concurrent write access to the std::unordered_map contained withing DomDocumentCache * functionality of the _get_ member method was split into _get_ and _create_ ** added typedef for std::pair specialization type "optional_item" that functions as the return value of _create_ and _get_ * "locator->getSystemId()" was leaking memory as xerces doesn't manage the lifetime of the returned heap-allocated char array ** analog to XMLCh* strings ** transformed XercesStringGuard into template class to be instantiated on either XMLCh or char
2014-05-02Changed external functions to enable global installationAdrian Kummerländer
* up until now all external functions were locally installed to a specific XalanTransformer instance contained within a TransformationGuard instance ** this had to change as I planned to add a "execute-transformation" function based on TransformationGuard which would have led to recursive self-instantiation ** global external functions have to be thread-safe * as global external function can not be provided with a reference to a transformation-specific FilesystemFacade instance, the working path is now determined using xalan::Locator ** currently using pointer arithmetics on XMLCh* to remove the "file://" prefix of the URI returned by locator->getSystemId(), may be unsafe * added compilation unit for PlattformGuard as it now contains function installation in addition to plattform lifetime management
2014-04-30Moved file reading functionality into local functionsAdrian Kummerländer
* it was moved into functions local to the respective compilation unit to improve readability ** splits DOM tree construction logic from the actual purpose of the external function
2014-04-29Simplified external function result node setAdrian Kummerländer
* all functions return a single "error" node in the case that something went wrong * otherwise they return one or more "result" nodes that contain the function results and may be distinguished by one or more attributes * this makes handling the return values easier and more pleasing to the eye as not everything has to be prefixed by "self::*" * updated test transformation accordingly
2014-04-27Added status information to external read-xml-file functionAdrian Kummerländer
* XML tree is contained below the _content_ node if read was successful ** status is set to error otherwise * updated test transformation accordingly
2014-04-25Improved argument resolution and error handlingAdrian Kummerländer
* execute member method internal argument count checks are not needed when using between one and two arguments ** xalan automatically generates the appropriate message containing the getError message when only offered fixed argument execute member overloads * improved FunctionReadDirectory attribute element generation * added additional validations to FunctionReadFile and FunctionReadXMLFile * I plan to return errors inside a DOM tree alongside the function return values in the future
2014-04-21Extracted filesystem path resolution into InputXSLT::FilesystemContextAdrian Kummerländer
* this class provides methods for resolving paths relative to the contained base path * other filesystem interaction methods will also be implemented in this class ** for instance directory traversal
2014-04-20Switched filesystem interaction code to boost::filesystemAdrian Kummerländer
* while plain read access on files is doesn't require boost::filesystem it will greatly simplify the implementation of external directory traversal functions * it also improves the portability of relative path construction
2014-04-20Implemented support for modifying external function base pathAdrian Kummerländer
* one expects a read-file function to work relative to the directory the transformation is located and not to the executable's location ** from the perspective of the user the transformation is the application, not the actual executable * removed PlattformGuard struct from TransformerGuard (now TransformerFacade) * TransformerFacade is instatiated with the appropriate relative working path ** i.e. it will have to be instantiated for every directory containing one or more transformations
2014-04-19Further code style fixesAdrian Kummerländer
* .. in the face of the planned development of usable external functions using the current proof-of-concept coding * replaced usage of std::shared_ptr in FunctionReadXmlFile class with explicit implementation of default and copy constructor * separated implementation and interfaces
