XMLIntf.TParseOption Enumeration

TParseOption and TParseOptions represent implementation-specific options that are followed when parsing the XML document.

Pascal

TParseOption = (
  poResolveExternals,
  poValidateOnParse,
  poPreserveWhiteSpace,
  poAsyncLoad
);

C++

enum TParseOption {
  poResolveExternals,
  poValidateOnParse,
  poPreserveWhiteSpace,
  poAsyncLoad
};

Description

TParseOptions is a set of TParseOption values. Each TParseOption value provides information about how a DOM parser should parse an XML document. Different DOM implementations support different options.

The following table lists the possible values:

OptionDOM VendorMeaning

Option	DOM Vendor	Meaning
poResolveExternals	MSXML	External definitions (resolvable namespaces, DTD external subsets, and external entity references) are resolved at parse time.
poValidateOnParse	MSXML	The DOM parser validates the XML document against its schema information as well as verifying that it is well-formed XML.
poPreserveWhiteSpace	MSXML	White space in the text of the XML document is not stripped off.
poAsyncLoad	MSXML	The DOM parser works asynchronously. This can speed up performance, especially when parsing a large XML document, but can also lead to exceptions if the application tries to access nodes in the document before it is completely parsed.
