Missing start/end Document events in SAX Parser?

[Nicholas Jones <Ni...@RCP.co.uk>]

Hello, 
I am using the SAX Parser and want to allow a consumer to abort the parsing,
I then decided to use the parseFirst(), parseNext(), parseReset() methods to
iterate through the document.
On changing to this method I noticed that the startDocument and endDocument
events no longer fired.
Is this a bug in the SAX parser or is my workaround an accepted solution?
(Obviously I don't want to start getting multiple startDocument /
endDocument events with later versions of the parser).

Apologies if this issue has already been addressed in the past or I am
missing the point in some way.

Here is a segment of the code I am using (including workaround).

m_pParser->startDocument(); 	//Workaround is to add this line
bool bParseState = m_pParser->parseFirst(*memBufIS,toFill);
while ( bParseState)
{
	if (m_bStopParse)
	{
		m_pParser->parseReset(toFill);
		bParseState = false;
	}
	else
	{
		bParseState = m_pParser->parseNext(toFill);
	}
}
m_pParser->endDocument();	//Workaround is to add this line

Many thanks


Nick

You'll notice that this has been fixed in CVS.  If you download a nightly
build, the start and end document events will be fired.

This was pointed out by some kind souls on the list.
