[jira] [Commented] (AXIOM-478) Solution for parsing large XML

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIOM-478?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15082606#comment-15082606 ] 

Andreas Veithen commented on AXIOM-478:
---------------------------------------

Some questions:

* Are the extension elements for CMIS implemented using custom code, or are you using an existing library?
* What are your constraints regarding the StAX implementation? In particular, does the solution have to work with IBM's XLXP parser?

> Solution for parsing large XML
> ------------------------------

>                 Key: AXIOM-478
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIOM-478
>             Project: Axiom
>          Issue Type: Question
>            Reporter: LU Jie

> This is LU Jie from IBM. We use axiom to parse Atom in our project. 
> One of our CMIS API will attach file content to the XML. If the file size is large, we will get a large atom.
> If we use Entry.getExtension(QName) to parse the content, it will allocate a large memory(around 5-6 times of the file size).
> We need you help to clarify if we can use DOM-like API of axiom to get the text of a certain element as stream. That is without allocating a large object in memory.
> Or is there an alternative solution for this use case?
> We DO know that we can use pull-parser to parse the XML as stream. But we need help to investigate if axiom has already provided an API or solution to avoid writing parser by ourselves.
> Here's the sample XML. We need to parse the text of cmisra:base64 element:
