XPath implements a subset of the XML XPath specification, allowing you to point to specific elements in the XML documents.

The path is a series of one or more element accessors separated by '/'. The path can be absolute (starting with '/') or relative to the current XPath location.

The following are possible values for an element accessor:

'name'A particular element name
name[i]The i-th subelement of the current element with the given name
[i]The i-th subelement of the current element
[last()]The last subelement of the current element
[last()-i]The subelement located at the last location minus i in the current element
name[@attrname="attrvalue"]The subelement containing a particular value for a given attribute (supports single AND double quotes)
..The parent of the current element

When XPath is set to a valid path, XElement points to the name of the element, with XParent, XNamespace, XPrefix, XChildName, XChildNamespace, XChildPrefix, XChildXText, and XText providing other properties of the element. The attributes of the current element are provided in the AttrName, AttrNamespace, AttrPrefix, and AttrValue properties.

BuildDOM must be set to True prior to parsing the document for the XPath functionality to be available.

Example (Setting XPath):

Document rootXML.XPath = "/"

Closes the Open XML package archive.

Syntax

int Close();

Remarks

When this method is called, the class will close the current archive and release all resources.

Error Handling

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

Config Method (OfficeDoc Class)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

QString Config(const QString& qsConfigurationString);

Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the class.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

Error Handling

This method returns a String value; after it returns, call the GetLastErrorCode() method to obtain its result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message.

ExtractPart Method (OfficeDoc Class)

Reads the contents of the currently selected part.

Syntax

int ExtractPart();

Remarks

If the part specified by the PartName property exists, the corresponding physical file will be extracted from the archive and will be available through the PartData property.

If the part doesn't exists, or it's stored in interleaved format, an error will be raised.

Error Handling

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

FindPartByType Method (OfficeDoc Class)

Looks up a part in the current relationships file by it's type namespace URI.

Syntax

QString FindPartByType(const QString& qsTypeURI);

Remarks

If a matching part can be found, it's part name is returned. Otherwise, an empty string is returned.

Error Handling

This method returns a String value; after it returns, call the GetLastErrorCode() method to obtain its result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message.

GetPropertyValue Method (OfficeDoc Class)

Returns the value of the specified package property.

Syntax

QString GetPropertyValue(const QString& qsPropName, const QString& qsPropNamespace);

Remarks

Looks up a package property named PropName in namespace PropNamespace in the core and app properties tables and returns it's value, if found.

If the property doesn't exists, an empty string is returned.

For custom properties. use an empty string ("") as the value of the PropNamespace parameter.

Error Handling

This method returns a String value; after it returns, call the GetLastErrorCode() method to obtain its result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message.

ListParts Method (OfficeDoc Class)

List all the parts contained in the document and their relationships.

Syntax

int ListParts();

Remarks

When this method is called, the class will read all the relationships in the document, recursively, and populate the Relationships collection.

Error Handling

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

Open Method (OfficeDoc Class)

Opens the Open XML package archive.

Syntax

int Open();

Remarks

When this method is called, the class will attempt to open the archive specified in PackagePath and extract package properties, content types and parse the master relationships file in the archive.

Error Handling

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

ParsePart Method (OfficeDoc Class)

Parses the specified part as XML.

Syntax

int ParsePart();

Remarks

If the part specified by PartName exists, the corresponding physical file will be extracted from the archive and parsed as XML. If BuildDOM is enabled, the DOM will be built internally and you can use XPath to query the resulting document, using the XPath property. If BuildDOM is disabled, only the XML parser-related events will be fired.

Error Handling

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

ReadRelationships Method (OfficeDoc Class)

Reads the relationships file in the archive associated with the specified part.

Syntax

int ReadRelationships();

When this method is called, the class will look for a .rels file associated with the part specified by the PartName property. If found, the Relationships collection will now expose the contents of the relationships for that part.

Error Handling

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

ReplacePart Method (OfficeDoc Class)

Replaces the contents of the specified part in the package.

Syntax

int ReplacePart();

If the part doesn't exists, it's stored in interleaved format, or PartData is null or empty, an error will be raised.

Error Handling

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message.

BeginFile Event (OfficeDoc Class)

Fired before each file is processed.

Syntax

class OfficeDocBeginFileEventParams {
public:
  int Index();

  bool Skip();
  void SetSkip(bool bSkip);

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void BeginFile(OfficeDocBeginFileEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass OfficeDoc and override this emitter function. virtual int FireBeginFile(OfficeDocBeginFileEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

BeginFile is fired before each file is processed by the compressor or decompressor, as appropriate. Index contains the array index of the file about to be processed, and the FileCompressedName, FileDecompressedName, FileCompressedSize (decompression only), and FileDecompressedSize fields of the Files collection for this index contain more detailed information about the file about to be processed.

When extracting, an alternate location may be specified by trapping the event, and modifying FileDecompressedName and/or ExtractToPath. If the appropriate value of FileDecompressedName is set to an empty string, the file will not be written to disk. If WriteToProgressEvent is true, the file will still be decompressed, and the data may be extracted through the Progress event.

This event may also be trapped while compressing. FileCompressedName and FileDecompressedName may be changed.

You may set the Skip parameter to true in order to skip the file completely while compressing or extracting.

Characters Event (OfficeDoc Class)

Fired for plain text segments of the input stream.

Syntax

EvalEntity Event (OfficeDoc Class)

Fired every time an entity needs to be evaluated.

Syntax

class OfficeDocEvalEntityEventParams {
public:
  const QString &Entity();

  const QString &Value();
  void SetValue(const QString &qsValue);

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void Meta(OfficeDocMetaEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass OfficeDoc and override this emitter function. virtual int FireMeta(OfficeDocMetaEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

The Meta event is fired whenever a meta information section (<! ..text... >) is found in the document.

The full text of the meta section is provided by the Text parameter.

Overwrite Event (OfficeDoc Class)

Fired whenever a file exists and may be overwritten.

Syntax

class OfficeDocOverwriteEventParams {
public:
  const QString &Filename();
  void SetFilename(const QString &qsFilename);

  bool Overwrite();
  void SetOverwrite(bool bOverwrite);

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void Overwrite(OfficeDocOverwriteEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass OfficeDoc and override this emitter function. virtual int FireOverwrite(OfficeDocOverwriteEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

Overwrite is fired when a file is about to be overwritten, and would overwrite an existing file. The event is fired during decompression.

Filename contains the full name of the file, specified with its pathname.

Overwrite specifies whether or not the file will be overwritten. For Zip, Jar, and Tar, this is equal by default to the value of the OverwriteFiles property. For Gzip, this value defaults to true.

Either of the parameters may be changed when the event is fired. Changing the value of Overwrite will override the default behavior of the class, and cause the file to be overwritten or not overwritten, depending on the value set. If Filename is changed, the value of Overwrite will be ignored, and the file will be written with the specified name. If a file of the new name also exists this file will be silently overwritten.

PI Event (OfficeDoc Class)

Fired when a processing instruction section is encountered.

Syntax

class OfficeDocPIEventParams {
public:
  const QString &Text();

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void PI(OfficeDocPIEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass OfficeDoc and override this emitter function. virtual int FirePI(OfficeDocPIEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

The PI event is fired whenever a processing instruction section (<? ..text... ?>) is found in the document.

The full text of the processing instruction is provided by the Text parameter.

Progress Event (OfficeDoc Class)

Fired as progress is made.

Syntax

class OfficeDocProgressEventParams {
public:
  const QByteArray &Data();

  const QString &Filename();

  qint64 BytesProcessed();

  int PercentProcessed();

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void Progress(OfficeDocProgressEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass OfficeDoc and override this emitter function. virtual int FireProgress(OfficeDocProgressEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

The Progress event is automatically fired as compression or decompression is performed. When WriteToProgressEvent is true, the output data is provided through the Data parameter, allowing for it to be streamed out.

Filename contains the name of the file being written. If no file is being written, Filename will contain an empty string, and the output data will be provided exclusively through this event.

BytesProcessed contains the total number of uncompressed bytes processed. PercentProcessed contains the percent of uncompressed bytes processed, corresponding roughly to the running time of the operation.

For Gzip extraction only, BytesProcessed and PercentProcessed will reflect the number of compressed bytes extracted, as it is generally impossible to predetermine the total uncompressed size.

If WriteToProgressEvent is false, Data will contain null.

SpecialSection Event (OfficeDoc Class)

Fired when a special section is encountered.

Syntax

class OfficeDocSpecialSectionEventParams {
public:
  const QString &SectionId();

  const QString &Text();

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void SpecialSection(OfficeDocSpecialSectionEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass OfficeDoc and override this emitter function. virtual int FireSpecialSection(OfficeDocSpecialSectionEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

The SpecialSection event is fired whenever a special section (such as <![ CDATA [ ..text... ]]>) is found in the document.

The full text of the special section is provided by the Text parameter, while the SectionId parameter provides the section identifier (e.g. "CDATA").

StartElement Event (OfficeDoc Class)

Fired when a begin-element tag is encountered in the document.

Syntax

class OfficeDocStartElementEventParams {
public:
  const QString &Namespace();

  const QString &Element();

  const QString &QName();

  bool IsEmpty();

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void StartElement(OfficeDocStartElementEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass OfficeDoc and override this emitter function. virtual int FireStartElement(OfficeDocStartElementEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

The StartElement event is fired when a begin-element tag is found in the document.

The element name is provided through the Element parameter. The attribute names and values (if any) are provided through the AttrName, AttrNamespace, AttrPrefix, and AttrValue properties.

The IsEmpty parameter is true when the event corresponds with an empty element declaration.

StartPrefixMapping Event (OfficeDoc Class)

Fired when entering the scope of a namespace declaration.

Syntax

class OfficeDocStartPrefixMappingEventParams {
public:
  const QString &Prefix();

  const QString &URI();

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};
// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal. void StartPrefixMapping(OfficeDocStartPrefixMappingEventParams *e);
// Or, subclass OfficeDoc and override this emitter function. virtual int FireStartPrefixMapping(OfficeDocStartPrefixMappingEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

The EndPrefixMapping event is fired when leaving the scope of a namespace declaration.

Configuration Settings (OfficeDoc Class)

The class 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 class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

OfficeDoc Configuration Settings

NormalizePartName:   Whether to normalize Part Names.

Sometimes the Part Names retrieved from a document will be of a format that is not directly usable in the PartName property when retrieving the part. For example: /ppt/slides/../media/image1.jpeg

When this option is set to True the component will automatically normalize these Part Names so that they can be directly used in the PartName property for retrieving the part. For example, the above would become: /ppt/media/image1.jpeg

The default is True.

RelationshipIsExternal[x]:   Whether the relationship part is internal or external.

Some relationships in an Office document may be external items, such as URLs and files on disk. These relationships are not directly accessible via ExtractPart. This configuration option will return "1" if the relationship at index "x" of the Relationship* arrays is an external part. Otherwise it will return "0"

Base Configuration Settings

BuildInfo:   Information about the product's build.

When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the product's build.

CodePage:   The system code page used for Unicode to Multibyte translations.

The default code page is Unicode UTF-8 (65001).

LicenseInfo:   Information about the current license.

When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the license this instance of a class is using. It will return the following information:

  • Product: The product the license is for.
  • Product Key: The key the license was generated from.
  • License Source: Where the license was found (e.g., RuntimeLicense, License File).
  • License Type: The type of license installed (e.g., Royalty Free, Single Server).
  • Last Valid Build: The last valid build number for which the license will work.
UseInternalSecurityAPI:   Tells the class whether or not to use the system security libraries or an internal implementation.

By default the class will use the system security libraries to perform cryptographic functions where applicable. Setting this to true tells the class to use the internal implementation instead of using the system's security API.

Trappable Errors (OfficeDoc Class)

Errors

The following errors may be generated by the class. Note that frequently the error message will contain more specific information than what is listed here.

Note that some non-fatal errors may be trapped and explicitly ignored in the Error event. This will allow the class to continue operation even in case of error.

OfficeDoc Errors

268   The specified part name could not be found on the package, or the part is stored in interleaved format.
