Method Summary

protected abstract org.w3c.dom.Document	doGetOutputDoc()
protected abstract void	doProcess(org.w3c.dom.Document doc)
org.w3c.dom.Document	getOutputDoc() Implements the getOutputDoc( ) method to provide standard processor chaining:
void	initialize(org.w3c.dom.Element elem) Initializes the object from an XML tag or element.
void	outputXML(java.io.Writer writer) Implements outputXML methods by delegating to abstract getOutputDoc.
void	outputXML(java.io.Writer writer, javax.xml.transform.Transformer transformer)
void	process(org.w3c.dom.Document doc) Implements the process method to cache the cookies (needed for post processing) passes to the subclass through the protected abstract doProcess( ) method.
void	setPostProcessor(IHTMLScraperProcessor postProcessor) Method allows post processors to be chained.

initialize

public void initialize(org.w3c.dom.Element elem)

Description copied from interface: IConfigurable

Initializes the object from an XML tag or element. This method is called by the Framework as part of the application initializtion. see ConfigurationManager, XMLConfigurationManager, XMLSearchFieldMapFactory, XMLSearchSourceFactory. Configurable objects that are owned or contained by other configurable objects will be initialized in by the parent object.

Specified by:

initialize in interface IConfigurable
