CkXml

Controls how this element's text content is emitted. When set to 1, the element content is written inside a CDATA section instead of being emitted as ordinary character data with XML escaping.

Gets or sets the text content stored directly on this XML element. Child elements are not included in this value.

For example, both of the following elements have This is the content as their Content:

<tag1>This is the content</tag1>

<tag2><child1>abc</child1><child2>abc</child2>This is the content</tag2>

Gets or sets this element's content as a 32-bit integer. Setting the property converts the integer to its decimal text representation; getting the property interprets the element's text content as an integer.

If set to a file path, this property logs the LastErrorText of each Chilkat method or property call to the specified file. This logging helps identify the context and history of Chilkat calls leading up to any crash or hang, aiding in debugging.

Enabling the VerboseLogging property provides more detailed information. This property is mainly used for debugging rare instances where a Chilkat method call causes a hang or crash, which should generally not happen.

Possible causes of hangs include:

• A timeout property set to 0, indicating an infinite timeout.
• A hang occurring within an event callback in the application code.
• An internal bug in the Chilkat code causing the hang.

Gets or sets the document type declaration associated with the XML document.

The value represents the document-level DOCTYPE declaration, for example <!DOCTYPE note SYSTEM "note.dtd">.

Controls whether a byte order mark (BOM, also called a preamble) is written when XML is saved to a file. The default is 0.

This setting is relevant to encodings for which a BOM can be emitted, such as UTF-8 and UTF-16. It does not affect XML returned as a language string by methods such as GetXml.

Controls whether XML emitted by GetXml and GetXmlSb is compact. When 1, unnecessary formatting whitespace and line breaks are omitted. The default is 0 for backward compatibility.

Controls whether the XML declaration is included when XML is emitted. The default is 1. When set to 0, output methods such as GetXml and SaveXml omit the declaration.

An XML declaration is the leading construct such as <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>.

Gets or sets the encoding value used in the XML declaration. The default is utf-8. This is a document-level setting and may be accessed from any element in the tree.

When XML is loaded, Chilkat sets this property from the encoding declared by the input XML when one is present. If no encoding is declared, the property is reset to utf-8.

Provides a substitution value for [i] in Chilkat tag paths and ChilkatPath expressions. When a path contains [i], the current value of this property is substituted for I.

Returns 1 if this element's content consists only of characters allowed in standard Base64 text, with whitespace ignored. Standard Base64 uses A-Z, a-z, 0-9, +, /, and optional trailing = padding.

Provides a substitution value for [j] in Chilkat tag paths and ChilkatPath expressions. When a path contains [j], the current value of this property is substituted for J.

Provides a substitution value for [k] in Chilkat tag paths and ChilkatPath expressions. When a path contains [k], the current value of this property is substituted for K.

Provides HTML-formatted information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

Provides plain text information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

Provides XML-formatted information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

Indicates the success or failure of the most recent method call: 1 means success, 0 means failure. This property remains unchanged by property setters or getters. This method is present to address challenges in checking for null or Nothing returns in certain programming languages. Note: This property does not apply to methods that return integer values or to boolean-returning methods where the boolean does not indicate success or failure.

Returns the number of attributes on this element.

For example, <tag attr1="value1" attr2="value2">...</tag> has two attributes. Attribute indexes used by methods such as GetAttributeName and GetAttributeValue are zero-based.

Returns the number of direct child elements of this element. Descendants below those children are not included in the count.

Controls case sensitivity for the XML sorting methods. Set to 1 for case-insensitive string comparisons or 0 for case-sensitive comparisons.

Controls the standalone pseudo-attribute in the XML declaration. This is a document-level setting and may be accessed from any element in the tree.

Setting this property to 1 causes the declaration to include standalone="yes".

Gets or sets the element name for this element, including any namespace prefix. For example, the tag for <soapenv:Body> is soapenv:Body.

Use TagNsPrefix and TagUnprefixed when the prefix and local portion are needed separately.

Gets or sets the namespace prefix portion of this element's tag. For soapenv:Envelope, the namespace prefix is soapenv.

Returns the Chilkat tag path needed to reach this element from the document root. If this object currently references the root element, the returned path is the empty string.

Gets or sets the unprefixed portion of this element's tag. For soapenv:Envelope, the unprefixed tag is Envelope.

Use TagNsPrefix to access the prefix separately.

Returns the identifier of the XML tree to which this element belongs. Elements in the same XML document have the same TreeId.

Provides a catch-all string for uncommon XML behaviors. The default is the empty string, which is appropriate for normal use.

Leave this property empty unless Chilkat documentation or support identifies a specific option needed for a specialized interoperability case.

When set to 1, all string arguments and return values are interpreted as UTF-8 strings. When set to 0, they are interpreted as ANSI strings.

In Chilkat v11.0.0 and later, the default value is 1. Before v11.0.0, it was 0.

If set to 1, then the contents of LastErrorText (or LastErrorXml, or LastErrorHtml) may contain more verbose information. The default value is 0. Verbose logging should only be used for debugging. The potentially large quantity of logged information may adversely affect peformance.

Version of the component/library, such as "10.1.0"

Traverses the subtree rooted at the calling element and concatenates the text content of all elements whose tag equals tag.

Evaluates a Chilkat-specific path command that can navigate from the current element, return element content or an attribute value, or move the caller's internal element reference.

This syntax is not XPath. Commands are separated by vertical bars and the expression ends with a return command:

command|command|command|...|returnCommand

Navigation commands include:

• TagName — first direct child having that tag.
• TagName[n] — the indexed direct child having that tag.
• .. — parent.
• ++ / -- — next / previous sibling.
• TagName{Content} — first direct child with that tag and exact content.
• /T/TagName — traverse the subtree and find the first element with that tag.
• /C/TagName,ContentPattern — traverse for a tag whose content matches a wildcard pattern.
• /C/ContentPattern — traverse for any tag whose content matches a wildcard pattern.
• /A/TagName,AttrName,AttrValuePattern — traverse for a tag having a matching attribute value.

The final return command is:

• * — return the current element's content.
• (AttrName) — return an attribute value.
• $ — move this Xml object to the selected element and return an empty string.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

ZIP-compresses the calling element's content together with its entire child subtree and replaces that structure with Base64-encoded compressed data.

The calling element's tag and attributes are not changed. Call UnzipTree to reconstruct the compressed subtree.

Returns 1 on success and 0 on failure.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Sets this element's content to an RFC 2047-style encoded-word using Base64 (the B encoding). inData contains bytes in the character encoding named by charset.

For example, using Big5 can produce content similar to =?Big5?B?pHCtsw==?=. The encoded payload is Base64 text inside the encoded-word syntax.

Use DecodeContent to recover the encoded bytes.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Decodes this element's RFC 2047-style Q- or B-encoded content and returns the decoded bytes.

This is the inverse of QEncodeContent and BEncodeContent.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Decodes this element's Base64-stored binary content and returns the resulting bytes. Set unzipFlag and decryptFlag to match the transformations that were applied when the content was stored; supply the same password when decryption is requested.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Sets this element's content to an RFC 2047-style encoded-word using the Q encoding. inData contains bytes in the character encoding named by charset.

Bytes that cannot be represented directly as 7-bit text are emitted as =XX, where XX is the hexadecimal byte value. For example, using gb2312 may produce content similar to =?gb2312?Q?=C5=B5=BB=F9?=.

Use DecodeContent to recover the encoded bytes.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Stores inData as binary content on this element, with optional ZIP compression and optional password-based AES encryption. The stored binary representation is emitted as Base64 text when the XML is serialized.

If zipFlag is 1, the data is compressed before storage. If encryptFlag is 1, the data is encrypted using Chilkat's 128-bit Rijndael/AES format and password.

Returns 1 on success and 0 on failure.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.
