Obsolete Members for QDomDocument

This is an overloaded function.

[deprecated in 6.8] bool QDomDocument:: setContent ( QXmlStreamReader * reader , bool namespaceProcessing , QString * errorMsg = nullptr, int * errorLine = nullptr, int * errorColumn = nullptr)

Use the overload taking ParseOptions instead.

This function reads the XML document from the QXmlStreamReader reader and parses it. Returns true if the content was successfully parsed; otherwise returns false .

If namespaceProcessing is true , the parser recognizes namespaces in the XML file and sets the prefix name, local name and namespace URI to appropriate values. If namespaceProcessing is false , the parser does no namespace processing when it reads the XML file.

If a parse error occurs, the error message is placed in * errorMsg , the line number in * errorLine and the column number in * errorColumn (unless the associated pointer is set to nullptr ).

See also QXmlStreamReader .

[deprecated in 6.8] bool QDomDocument:: setContent (const QByteArray & data , bool namespaceProcessing , QString * errorMsg = nullptr, int * errorLine = nullptr, int * errorColumn = nullptr)

Use the overload taking ParseOptions instead.

This function parses the XML document from the byte array data and sets it as the content of the document. It tries to detect the encoding of the document as required by the XML specification.

If namespaceProcessing is true, the parser recognizes namespaces in the XML file and sets the prefix name, local name and namespace URI to appropriate values. If namespaceProcessing is false, the parser does no namespace processing when it reads the XML file.

If a parse error occurs, this function returns false and the error message is placed in * errorMsg , the line number in * errorLine and the column number in * errorColumn (unless the associated pointer is set to nullptr ); otherwise this function returns true .

If namespaceProcessing is true, the function QDomNode::prefix () returns a string for all elements and attributes. It returns an empty string if the element or attribute has no prefix.

Text nodes consisting only of whitespace are stripped and won't appear in the QDomDocument .

If namespaceProcessing is false, the functions QDomNode::prefix (), QDomNode::localName () and QDomNode::namespaceURI () return an empty string.

Entity references are handled as follows:

See also QDomNode::namespaceURI (), QDomNode::localName (), QDomNode::prefix (), QString::isNull (), and QString::isEmpty ().

[deprecated in 6.8] bool QDomDocument:: setContent (const QString & text , bool namespaceProcessing , QString * errorMsg = nullptr, int * errorLine = nullptr, int * errorColumn = nullptr)

Use the overloads taking ParseOptions instead.

This function reads the XML document from the string text , returning true if the content was successfully parsed; otherwise returns false . Since text is already a Unicode string, no encoding detection is done.
