data modeled to look like XML.</p>
<p>The QXmlQuery class compiles and executes queries written in the
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xquery/">XQuery language</a>.
QXmlQuery is typically used to query XML data, but it can also
query non-XML data that has been modeled to look like XML.</p>
<p>Using QXmlQuery to query XML data, as in the snippet below, is
simple because it can use the built-in <a href="qabstractxmlnodemodel.html">XML data model</a> as its delegate to
the underlying query engine for traversing the data. The built-in
data model is specified in <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath-datamodel/">XQuery 1.0 and XPath 2.0
Data Model</a>.</p>
<pre class="cpp">
<span class="type">QXmlQuery</span> query;
query<span class="operator">.</span><a href="qxmlquery.html#setQuery">setQuery</a>(<span class="string">"doc('index.html')/html/body/p[1]"</span>);
<span class="type"><a href="qxmlserializer.html">QXmlSerializer</a></span> serializer(query<span class="operator">,</span> myOutputDevice);
query<span class="operator">.</span><a href="qxmlquery.html#evaluateTo">evaluateTo</a>(<span class="operator">&</span>serializer);
</pre>
<p>The example uses QXmlQuery to match the first paragraph of an
XML document and then <a href="qxmlserializer.html">output the
result</a> to a device as XML.</p>
<p>Using QXmlQuery to query <i>non-XML</i> data requires writing a
subclass of <a href="qabstractxmlnodemodel.html">QAbstractXmlNodeModel</a> to use as a
replacement for the built-in XML data model. The custom data model
will be able to traverse the non-XML data as required by the
<a href="qabstractxmlnodemodel.html">QAbstractXmlNodeModel</a>
interface. An instance of this custom data model then becomes the
delegate used by the query engine to traverse the non-XML data. For
an example of how to use QXmlQuery to query non-XML data, see the
documentation for <a href="qabstractxmlnodemodel.html">QAbstractXmlNodeModel</a>.</p>
<a id="running-xqueries" name="running-xqueries" />
<h3>Running XQueries</h3>
<p>To run a query set up with QXmlQuery, call one of the evaluation
functions.</p>
<ul>
<li>evaluateTo(<a href="qabstractxmlreceiver.html">QAbstractXmlReceiver</a> *) is called
with a pointer to an XML <a href="qabstractxmlreceiver.html">receiver</a>, which receives the query
results as a sequence of callbacks. The receiver callback class is
like the callback class used for translating the output of a SAX
parser. <a href="qxmlserializer.html">QXmlSerializer</a>, for
example, is a receiver callback class for translating the sequence
of callbacks for output as unformatted XML text.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>evaluateTo(<a href="qxmlresultitems.html">QXmlResultItems</a>
*) is called with a pointer to an iterator for an empty sequence of
query <a href="qxmlresultitems.html">result items</a>. The
Java-like iterator allows the query results to be accessed
sequentially.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>evaluateTo(<a href="qstringlist.html">QStringList</a> *) is
like evaluateTo(<a href="qxmlresultitems.html">QXmlResultItems</a>
*), but the query must evaluate to a sequence of strings.</li>
</ul>
<a id="running-xpath-expressions" name="running-xpath-expressions" />
<h3>Running XPath Expressions</h3>
<p>The XPath language is a subset of the <a href="xmlprocessing.html">XQuery</a> language, so running an XPath
expression is the same as running an <a href="xmlprocessing.html">XQuery</a> query. Pass the XPath expression to
QXmlQuery using <a href="qxmlquery.html#setQuery">setQuery</a>().</p>
<a id="running-xslt-stylesheets" name="running-xslt-stylesheets" />
<h3>Running XSLT stylesheets</h3>
<p>Running an XSLT stylesheet is like running an <a href="xmlprocessing.html">XQuery</a>, except that when you construct
your QXmlQuery, you must pass <a href="qxmlquery.html#QueryLanguage-enum">QXmlQuery.XSLT20</a> to tell
QXmlQuery to interpret whatever it gets from <a href="qxmlquery.html#setQuery">setQuery</a>() as an XSLT stylesheet
instead of as an <a href="xmlprocessing.html">XQuery</a>. You must
also set the input document by calling <a href="qxmlquery.html#setFocus">setFocus</a>().</p>
<pre class="cpp">
<span class="type">QXmlQuery</span> query(<span class="type">QXmlQuery</span><span class="operator">.</span>XSLT20);
query<span class="operator">.</span>setFocus(<span class="type"><a href="qurl.html">QUrl</a></span>(<span class="string">"myInput.xml"</span>));
query<span class="operator">.</span>setQuery(<span class="type"><a href="qurl.html">QUrl</a></span>(<span class="string">"myStylesheet.xsl"</span>));
query<span class="operator">.</span>evaluateTo(out);
</pre>
<p><b>Note:</b> Currently, <a href="qxmlquery.html#setFocus">setFocus</a>() must be called
<i>before</i> <a href="qxmlquery.html#setQuery">setQuery</a>() when
using XSLT.</p>
<p>Another way to run an XSLT stylesheet is to use the
<tt>xmlpatterns</tt> command line utility.</p>
<pre class="cpp">
xmlpatterns myStylesheet<span class="operator">.</span>xsl myInput<span class="operator">.</span>xml
</pre>
<p><b>Note:</b> For the current release, XSLT support should be
considered experimental. See section <a href="xmlprocessing.html#xslt-2-0">XSLT conformance</a> for details.</p>
<p>Stylesheet parameters are bound using <a href="qxmlquery.html#bindVariable">bindVariable</a>().</p>
<a id="binding-a-query-to-a-starting-node" name="binding-a-query-to-a-starting-node" />
<h3>Binding A Query To A Starting Node</h3>
<p>When a query is run on XML data, as in the snippet above, the
<tt>doc()</tt> function returns the node in the built-in data model
where the query evaluation will begin. But when a query is run on a
custom node model containing non-XML data, one of the <a href="qxmlquery.html#bindVariable">bindVariable</a>() functions must be
called to bind a variable name to a starting node in the custom
model. A $variable reference is used in the <a href="xmlprocessing.html">XQuery</a> text to access the starting node in
the custom model. It is not necessary to declare the variable name
external in the query. See the example in the documentation for
<a href="qabstractxmlnodemodel.html">QAbstractXmlNodeModel</a>.</p>
<a id="reentrancy-and-thread-safety" name="reentrancy-and-thread-safety" />
<h3>Reentrancy and Thread-Safety</h3>
<p>QXmlQuery is reentrant but not thread-safe. It is safe to use
the QxmlQuery copy constructor to create a copy of a query and run
the same query multiple times. Behind the scenes, QXmlQuery will
reuse resources such as opened files and compiled queries to the
extent possible. But it is not safe to use the same instance of
QXmlQuery in multiple threads.</p>
<a id="error-handling" name="error-handling" />
<h3>Error Handling</h3>
<p>Errors can occur during query evaluation. Examples include type
errors and file loading errors. When an error occurs:</p>
<ul>
<li>The error message is sent to the <a href="qxmlquery.html#messageHandler">messageHandler</a>().</li>
<li><a href="qxmlresultitems.html#hasError">QXmlResultItems.hasError</a>()
will return <tt>true</tt>, or <a href="qxmlquery.html#evaluateTo">evaluateTo</a>() will return
<tt>false</tt>;</li>
<li>The results of the evaluation are undefined.</li>
</ul>
<a id="resource-management" name="resource-management" />
<h3>Resource Management</h3>
<p>When a query runs, it parses documents, allocating internal data
structures to hold them, and it may load other resources over the
network. It reuses these allocated resources when possible, to
avoid having to reload and reparse them.</p>
<p>When <a href="qxmlquery.html#setQuery">setQuery</a>() is called,
the query text is compiled into an internal data structure and
optimized. The optimized form can then be reused for multiple
evaluations of the query. Since the compile-and-optimize process
can be expensive, repeating it for the same query should be avoided
by using a separate instance of QXmlQuery for each query text.</p>
<p>Once a document has been parsed, its internal representation is
maintained in the QXmlQuery instance and shared among multiple
QXmlQuery instances.</p>
<p>An instance of <a href="qcoreapplication.html">QCoreApplication</a> must exist before
QXmlQuery can be used.</p>
<a id="event-handling" name="event-handling" />
<h3>Event Handling</h3>
<p>When QXmlQuery accesses resources (e.g., calling
<tt>fn:doc()</tt> to load a file, or accessing a device via a bound
variable), the event loop is used, which means events will be
processed. To avoid processing events when QXmlQuery accesses
resources, create your QXmlQuery instance in a separate thread.</p>
<hr /><h2>Type Documentation</h2><h3 class="fn"><a name="QueryLanguage-enum" />QXmlQuery.QueryLanguage</h3><p>Specifies whether you want <a href="qxmlquery.html">QXmlQuery</a> to interpret the input to <a href="qxmlquery.html#setQuery">setQuery</a>() as an <a href="xmlprocessing.html">XQuery</a> or as an XSLT stylesheet.</p>

<p>The focus can be accessed using the context item expression,
i.e., dot (".").</p>
<p>By default, the focus is not set and is undefined. It will

<h3 class="fn"><a name="setFocus-2" />bool QXmlQuery.setFocus (<i>self</i>, <a href="qurl.html">QUrl</a> <i>documentURI</i>)</h3><p>This is an overloaded function.</p>
<p>Sets the focus to be the document located at <i>documentURI</i>

<p>This function was introduced in Qt 4.5.</p>
<h3 class="fn"><a name="setFocus-4" />bool QXmlQuery.setFocus (<i>self</i>, QString <i>focus</i>)</h3><p>This function behaves identically to calling the <a href="qxmlquery.html#setFocus">setFocus</a>() overload with a <a href="qiodevice.html">QIODevice</a> whose content is <i>focus</i>
encoded as UTF-8. That is, <i>focus</i> is treated as if it

<p>Returns the same result as the overload.</p>
<p>This is an overloaded function.</p>
<p>This function was introduced in Qt 4.6.</p>
<h3 class="fn"><a name="setInitialTemplateName" />QXmlQuery.setInitialTemplateName (<i>self</i>, <a href="qxmlname.html">QXmlName</a> <i>name</i>)</h3><p>Sets the <i>name</i> of the initial template. The initial
template is the one the processor calls first, instead of
attempting to match a template to the context node (if any). If an
initial template is not set, the standard order of template
invocation will be used.</p>
<p>This function only applies when using <a href="qxmlquery.html">QXmlQuery</a> to process XSL-T stylesheets. The

messages to this message handler. <a href="qxmlquery.html">QXmlQuery</a> does not take ownership of

<p>Normally, the default message handler is sufficient. It writes
compile and runtime messages to <i>stderr</i>. The default message
handler includes color codes if <i>stderr</i> can render
colors.</p>
<p>Note that changing the message handler after the query has been

device. The device must have been opened with at least <a href="qiodevice.html#OpenModeFlag-enum">QIODevice.ReadOnly</a>.</p>
<p><i>documentURI</i> represents the query obtained from the

as defined in the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xquery/">XQuery
language</a>. It is used internally to resolve relative URIs that
appear in the query, and for message reporting. <i>documentURI</i>
can be empty. If it is empty, the <a href="qcoreapplication.html#applicationFilePath">application file
path</a> is used. If it is not empty, it may be either relative or
absolute. If it is relative, it is resolved itself against the
<a href="qcoreapplication.html#applicationFilePath">application
file path</a> before it is used. If <i>documentURI</i> is neither a
valid URI nor empty, the result is undefined.</p>
<p>If the query contains a static error (e.g. syntax error), an
error message is sent to the <a href="qxmlquery.html#messageHandler">messageHandler</a>(), and <a href="qxmlquery.html#isValid">isValid</a>() will return
<i>false</i>.</p>
<p>Variables must be bound before setQuery() is called.</p>
<p>The encoding of the <a href="xmlprocessing.html">XQuery</a> in

setting and detecting encoding of <a href="xmlprocessing.html">XQuery</a> files, which are explained in the
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xquery/">XQuery language</a>.</p>
<p>If <i>sourceCode</i> is <tt>null</tt> or not readable, or if
<i>documentURI</i> is not a valid URI, behavior is undefined.</p>

<p>The supported URI schemes are the same as those in the <a href="xmlprocessing.html">XQuery</a> function <tt>fn:doc</tt>, except
that queryURI can be the object of a variable binding.</p>
<p><i>baseURI</i> is the Base URI of the static context, as defined
in the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xquery/">XQuery language</a>.
It is used internally to resolve relative URIs that appear in the

<i>queryURI</i> is used. Otherwise, <i>baseURI</i> is used, and it
is resolved against the <a href="qcoreapplication.html#applicationFilePath">application file

<p>The behavior and requirements of this function are the same as
for setQuery(<a href="qiodevice.html">QIODevice</a>*, const
<a href="qurl.html">QUrl</a>&), after the <a href="xmlprocessing.html">XQuery</a> has been read from the IO device

<h3 class="fn"><a name="uriResolver" /><a href="qabstracturiresolver.html">QAbstractUriResolver</a> QXmlQuery.uriResolver (<i>self</i>)</h3><p>Returns the query's URI resolver. If no URI resolver has been
set, <a href="qtxmlpatterns.html">QtXmlPatterns</a> will use the

<p>The URI resolver provides a level of abstraction, or

valid ones.</p>
<p><a href="qtxmlpatterns.html">QtXmlPatterns</a> calls the URI

Specifically, all builtin functions that deal with URIs
(<tt>fn:doc()</tt>, and <tt>fn:doc-available()</tt>).</p>
<p>In the case of <tt>fn:doc()</tt>, the absolute URI is the base
URI in the static context (which most likely is the location of the
query). Rather than use the URI the user specified, the return

<p>When <a href="qtxmlpatterns.html">QtXmlPatterns</a> calls
<a href="qabstracturiresolver.html#resolve">QAbstractUriResolver.resolve</a>()
the absolute URI is the URI mandated by the <a href="xmlprocessing.html">XQuery</a> language, and the relative URI is
the URI specified by the user.</p>
