Xmlp Configuration

The bean accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the bean, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

XMLp Configuration Settings


	IgnoreBadAttributePrefixes: If true, bad (unknown) attribute prefixes are ignored. Normally a trappable error is generated when an unknown attribute prefix is encountered. This setting suppresses the error. The default value is True.
	IgnoreBadElementPrefixes: If true, bad (unknown) element prefixes are ignored. Normally a trappable error is generated when an unknown element prefix is encountered. This setting suppresses the error. The default value is True.
	CacheContent: If true, the original XML is saved in a buffer. This config controls whether or not the component retains the entire original XML in a buffer. This is used to retain the original XML as opposed to returning generated XML after parsing. The default value is true.
	ErrorOnEmptyAttr: If true, passing an invalid attribute to the Attr method will throw an exception. If an invalid attribute name is passed into the Attr method, the method will return with an empty string if this is set to false, otherwise an exception is thrown.
	PreserveWhitespace: If true, leading and trailing whitespace in element text is preserved. Normally the leading and trailing whitespace from an element's text is trimmed. When this property is set to true, this leading and trailing whitespace is preserved. The default value is false.

Base Configuration Settings

GUIAvailable: Tells the bean whether or not a message loop is available for processing events.

In a GUI-based application, long-running blocking operations may cause the application to stop responding to input until the operation returns. The bean will attempt to discover whether or not the application has a message loop and, if one is discovered, it will process events in that message loop during any such blocking operation.

In some non-GUI applications an invalid message loop may be discovered that will result in errant behavior. In these cases, setting GuiAvailable to false will ensure that the bean does not attempt to process external events.

UseDaemonThreads: Whether threads created by the bean are daemon threads.

If set to True, when the bean creates a thread the thread's Daemon property will be explicitly set to True. By default this setting is False and the bean will not set the Daemon property on the created thread.
