interface nsIRDFXMLSink : nsISupports


  

        
Attributes

    

              

          
 A "sink" that receives and processes RDF/XML. This interface is used
 by the RDF/XML parser.


 Set to <code>true</code> if the sink is read-only and cannot
 be modified


          

  
    attribute
  
    boolean  
  readOnly

        

          

        
Methods

    

              

          
 Add namespace information to the RDF/XML sink.
 @param aPrefix the namespace prefix
 @param aURI the namespace URI


          

  
  [noscript]   
    void
  addNameSpace(in nsIAtomPtr aPrefix, [const] in nsStringRef aURI)

        

              

          
 Add an observer that will be notified as the RDF/XML load
 progresses.
 <p>

 Note that the sink will acquire a strong reference to the
 observer, so care should be taken to avoid cyclical references
 that cannot be released (i.e., if the observer holds a
 reference to the sink, it should be sure that it eventually
 clears the reference).

 @param aObserver the observer to add to the sink's set of
 load observers.


          

  
    
    void
  addXMLSinkObserver(in nsIRDFXMLSinkObserver aObserver)

        

              

          
 Initiate the RDF/XML load.


          

  
    
    void
  beginLoad()

        

              

          
 Complete the RDF/XML load.


          

  
    
    void
  endLoad()

        

              

          
 Suspend the RDF/XML load.


          

  
    
    void
  interrupt()

        

              

          
 Remove an observer from the sink's set of observers.
 @param aObserver the observer to remove.


          

  
    
    void
  removeXMLSinkObserver(in nsIRDFXMLSinkObserver aObserver)

        

              

          
 Resume the RDF/XML load.


          

  
    
    void
  resume()
