- Often after creating a new document or loading the existing one and processing - it, it is necessary to save the result back to file. Also it is occasionally - useful to output the whole document or a subtree to some stream; use cases - include debug printing, serialization via network or other text-oriented medium, - etc. pugixml provides several functions to output any subtree of the document - to a file, stream or another generic transport interface; these functions allow - to customize the output format (see Output options), and also perform - necessary encoding conversions (see Encodings). This section documents - the relevant functionality. -

-

- Before writing to the destination the node/attribute data is properly formatted - according to the node type; all special XML symbols, such as < and &, - are properly escaped (unless format_no_escapes - flag is set). In order to guard against forgotten node/attribute names, empty - node/attribute names are printed as ":anonymous". - For well-formed output, make sure all node and attribute names are set to meaningful - values. -

-

- CDATA sections with values that contain "]]>" - are split into several sections as follows: section with value "pre]]>post" is written as <![CDATA[pre]]]]><![CDATA[>post]]>. - While this alters the structure of the document (if you load the document after - saving it, there will be two CDATA sections instead of one), this is the only - way to escape CDATA contents. -

-
- -

- If you want to save the whole document to a file, you can use one of the - following functions: -

-
bool xml_document::save_file(const char* path, const char_t* indent = "\t", unsigned int flags = format_default, xml_encoding encoding = encoding_auto) const;
-bool xml_document::save_file(const wchar_t* path, const char_t* indent = "\t", unsigned int flags = format_default, xml_encoding encoding = encoding_auto) const;
-
-

- These functions accept file path as its first argument, and also three optional - arguments, which specify indentation and other output options (see Output options) - and output data encoding (see Encodings). The path has the target - operating system format, so it can be a relative or absolute one, it should - have the delimiters of the target system, it should have the exact case if - the target file system is case-sensitive, etc. -

-

- File path is passed to the system file opening function as is in case of - the first function (which accepts const - char* path); the second function either uses - a special file opening function if it is provided by the runtime library - or converts the path to UTF-8 and uses the system file opening function. -

-

- save_file opens the target - file for writing, outputs the requested header (by default a document declaration - is output, unless the document already has one), and then saves the document - contents. If the file could not be opened, the function returns false. Calling save_file - is equivalent to creating an xml_writer_file - object with FILE* - handle as the only constructor argument and then calling save; - see Saving document via writer interface for writer interface details. -

-

- This is a simple example of saving XML document to file (samples/save_file.cpp): -

-

- -

-
// save document to file
-std::cout << "Saving result: " << doc.save_file("save_file_output.xml") << std::endl;
-
-

-

-
-
- -

- To enhance interoperability pugixml provides functions for saving document - to any object which implements C++ std::ostream - interface. This allows you to save documents to any standard C++ stream (i.e. - file stream) or any third-party compliant implementation (i.e. Boost Iostreams). - Most notably, this allows for easy debug output, since you can use std::cout - stream as saving target. There are two functions, one works with narrow character - streams, another handles wide character ones: -

-
void xml_document::save(std::ostream& stream, const char_t* indent = "\t", unsigned int flags = format_default, xml_encoding encoding = encoding_auto) const;
-void xml_document::save(std::wostream& stream, const char_t* indent = "\t", unsigned int flags = format_default) const;
-
-

- save with std::ostream - argument saves the document to the stream in the same way as save_file (i.e. with requested header and - with encoding conversions). On the other hand, save - with std::wstream argument saves the document to - the wide stream with encoding_wchar - encoding. Because of this, using save - with wide character streams requires careful (usually platform-specific) - stream setup (i.e. using the imbue - function). Generally use of wide streams is discouraged, however it provides - you with the ability to save documents to non-Unicode encodings, i.e. you - can save Shift-JIS encoded data if you set the correct locale. -

-

- Calling save with stream - target is equivalent to creating an xml_writer_stream - object with stream as the only constructor argument and then calling save; see Saving document via writer interface for writer - interface details. -

-

- This is a simple example of saving XML document to standard output (samples/save_stream.cpp): -

-

- -

-
// save document to standard output
-std::cout << "Document:\n";
-doc.save(std::cout);
-
-

-

-
-
- -

- All of the above saving functions are implemented in terms of writer interface. - This is a simple interface with a single function, which is called several - times during output process with chunks of document data as input: -

-
class xml_writer
-{
-public:
-    virtual void write(const void* data, size_t size) = 0;
-};
-
-void xml_document::save(xml_writer& writer, const char_t* indent = "\t", unsigned int flags = format_default, xml_encoding encoding = encoding_auto) const;
-
-

- In order to output the document via some custom transport, for example sockets, - you should create an object which implements xml_writer - interface and pass it to save - function. xml_writer::write function is called with a buffer - as an input, where data points - to buffer start, and size - is equal to the buffer size in bytes. write - implementation must write the buffer to the transport; it can not save the - passed buffer pointer, as the buffer contents will change after write returns. The buffer contains the - chunk of document data in the desired encoding. -

-

- write function is called - with relatively large blocks (size is usually several kilobytes, except for - the last block that may be small), so there is often no need for additional - buffering in the implementation. -

-

- This is a simple example of custom writer for saving document data to STL - string (samples/save_custom_writer.cpp); - read the sample code for more complex examples: -

-

- -

-
struct xml_string_writer: pugi::xml_writer
-{
-    std::string result;
-
-    virtual void write(const void* data, size_t size)
-    {
-        result.append(static_cast<const char*>(data), size);
-    }
-};
-
-

-

-
-
- -

- While the previously described functions save the whole document to the destination, - it is easy to save a single subtree. The following functions are provided: -

-
void xml_node::print(std::ostream& os, const char_t* indent = "\t", unsigned int flags = format_default, xml_encoding encoding = encoding_auto, unsigned int depth = 0) const;
-void xml_node::print(std::wostream& os, const char_t* indent = "\t", unsigned int flags = format_default, unsigned int depth = 0) const;
-void xml_node::print(xml_writer& writer, const char_t* indent = "\t", unsigned int flags = format_default, xml_encoding encoding = encoding_auto, unsigned int depth = 0) const;
-
-

- These functions have the same arguments with the same meaning as the corresponding - xml_document::save functions, and allow you to save the - subtree to either a C++ IOstream or to any object that implements xml_writer interface. -

-

- Saving a subtree differs from saving the whole document: the process behaves - as if format_write_bom is off, and - format_no_declaration is on, - even if actual values of the flags are different. This means that BOM is - not written to the destination, and document declaration is only written - if it is the node itself or is one of node's children. Note that this also - holds if you're saving a document; this example (samples/save_subtree.cpp) - illustrates the difference: -

-

- -

-
// get a test document
-pugi::xml_document doc;
-doc.load_string("<foo bar='baz'><call>hey</call></foo>");
-
-// print document to standard output (prints <?xml version="1.0"?><foo bar="baz"><call>hey</call></foo>)
-doc.save(std::cout, "", pugi::format_raw);
-std::cout << std::endl;
-
-// print document to standard output as a regular node (prints <foo bar="baz"><call>hey</call></foo>)
-doc.print(std::cout, "", pugi::format_raw);
-std::cout << std::endl;
-
-// print a subtree to standard output (prints <call>hey</call>)
-doc.child("foo").child("call").print(std::cout, "", pugi::format_raw);
-std::cout << std::endl;
-
-

-

-
-
- -

- All saving functions accept the optional parameter flags. - This is a bitmask that customizes the output format; you can select the way - the document nodes are printed and select the needed additional information - that is output before the document contents. -

-
- - - - - -
[Note]Note

- You should use the usual bitwise arithmetics to manipulate the bitmask: - to enable a flag, use mask | flag; - to disable a flag, use mask & ~flag. -

-

- These flags control the resulting tree contents: -

-
    -
  • - format_indent determines if all nodes - should be indented with the indentation string (this is an additional - parameter for all saving functions, and is "\t" - by default). If this flag is on, before every node the indentation string - is output several times, where the amount of indentation depends on the - node's depth relative to the output subtree. This flag has no effect - if format_raw is enabled. This flag - is on by default.

    - -
  • -
  • - format_raw switches between formatted and - raw output. If this flag is on, the nodes are not indented in any way, - and also no newlines that are not part of document text are printed. - Raw mode can be used for serialization where the result is not intended - to be read by humans; also it can be useful if the document was parsed - with parse_ws_pcdata flag, to - preserve the original document formatting as much as possible. This flag - is off by default.

    - -
  • -
  • - format_no_escapes disables output - escaping for attribute values and PCDATA contents. If this flag is off, - special symbols (', &, <, >) and all non-printable characters - (those with codepoint values less than 32) are converted to XML escape - sequences (i.e. &amp;) during output. If this flag is on, no text - processing is performed; therefore, output XML can be malformed if output - contents contains invalid symbols (i.e. having a stray < in the PCDATA - will make the output malformed). This flag is off - by default. -
  • -
-

- These flags control the additional output information: -

-
    -
  • - format_no_declaration disables - default node declaration output. By default, if the document is saved - via save or save_file function, and it does not - have any document declaration, a default declaration is output before - the document contents. Enabling this flag disables this declaration. - This flag has no effect in xml_node::print - functions: they never output the default declaration. This flag is off by default.

    - -
  • -
  • - format_write_bom enables Byte Order - Mark (BOM) output. By default, no BOM is output, so in case of non UTF-8 - encodings the resulting document's encoding may not be recognized by - some parsers and text editors, if they do not implement sophisticated - encoding detection. Enabling this flag adds an encoding-specific BOM - to the output. This flag has no effect in xml_node::print - functions: they never output the BOM. This flag is off - by default. -
  • -
  • - format_save_file_text changes - the file mode when using save_file - function. By default, file is opened in binary mode, which means that - the output file will contain platform-independent newline \n (ASCII 10). - If this flag is on, file is opened in text mode, which on some systems - changes the newline format (i.e. on Windows you can use this flag to - output XML documents with \r\n (ASCII 13 10) newlines. This flag is - off by default. -
  • -
-

- Additionally, there is one predefined option mask: -

-
  • - format_default is the default set of - flags, i.e. it has all options set to their default values. It sets formatted - output with indentation, without BOM and with default node declaration, - if necessary. -
-

- This is an example that shows the outputs of different output options (samples/save_options.cpp): -

-

- -

-
// get a test document
-pugi::xml_document doc;
-doc.load_string("<foo bar='baz'><call>hey</call></foo>");
-
-// default options; prints
-// <?xml version="1.0"?>
-// <foo bar="baz">
-//         <call>hey</call>
-// </foo>
-doc.save(std::cout);
-std::cout << std::endl;
-
-// default options with custom indentation string; prints
-// <?xml version="1.0"?>
-// <foo bar="baz">
-// --<call>hey</call>
-// </foo>
-doc.save(std::cout, "--");
-std::cout << std::endl;
-
-// default options without indentation; prints
-// <?xml version="1.0"?>
-// <foo bar="baz">
-// <call>hey</call>
-// </foo>
-doc.save(std::cout, "\t", pugi::format_default & ~pugi::format_indent); // can also pass "" instead of indentation string for the same effect
-std::cout << std::endl;
-
-// raw output; prints
-// <?xml version="1.0"?><foo bar="baz"><call>hey</call></foo>
-doc.save(std::cout, "\t", pugi::format_raw);
-std::cout << std::endl << std::endl;
-
-// raw output without declaration; prints
-// <foo bar="baz"><call>hey</call></foo>
-doc.save(std::cout, "\t", pugi::format_raw | pugi::format_no_declaration);
-std::cout << std::endl;
-

- pugixml supports all popular Unicode encodings (UTF-8, UTF-16 (big and little - endian), UTF-32 (big and little endian); UCS-2 is naturally supported since - it's a strict subset of UTF-16) and handles all encoding conversions during - output. The output encoding is set via the encoding - parameter of saving functions, which is of type xml_encoding. - The possible values for the encoding are documented in Encodings; - the only flag that has a different meaning is encoding_auto. -

-

- While all other flags set the exact encoding, encoding_auto - is meant for automatic encoding detection. The automatic detection does not - make sense for output encoding, since there is usually nothing to infer the - actual encoding from, so here encoding_auto - means UTF-8 encoding, which is the most popular encoding for XML data storage. - This is also the default value of output encoding; specify another value - if you do not want UTF-8 encoded output. -

-

- Also note that wide stream saving functions do not have encoding - argument and always assume encoding_wchar - encoding. -

-
- - - - - -
[Note]Note

- The current behavior for Unicode conversion is to skip all invalid UTF - sequences during conversion. This behavior should not be relied upon; if - your node/attribute names do not contain any valid UTF sequences, they - may be output as if they are empty, which will result in malformed XML - document. -

-
-
- -

- When you are saving the document using xml_document::save() or xml_document::save_file(), a default XML document declaration is - output, if format_no_declaration - is not specified and if the document does not have a declaration node. However, - the default declaration is not customizable. If you want to customize the - declaration output, you need to create the declaration node yourself. -

-
- - - - - -
[Note]Note

- By default the declaration node is not added to the document during parsing. - If you just need to preserve the original declaration node, you have to - add the flag parse_declaration - to the parsing flags; the resulting document will contain the original - declaration node, which will be output during saving. -

-

- Declaration node is a node with type node_declaration; - it behaves like an element node in that it has attributes with values (but - it does not have child nodes). Therefore setting custom version, encoding - or standalone declaration involves adding attributes and setting attribute - values. -

-

- This is an example that shows how to create a custom declaration node (samples/save_declaration.cpp): -

-

- -

-
// get a test document
-pugi::xml_document doc;
-doc.load_string("<foo bar='baz'><call>hey</call></foo>");
-
-// add a custom declaration node
-pugi::xml_node decl = doc.prepend_child(pugi::node_declaration);
-decl.append_attribute("version") = "1.0";
-decl.append_attribute("encoding") = "UTF-8";
-decl.append_attribute("standalone") = "no";
-
-// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?> 
-// <foo bar="baz">
-//         <call>hey</call>
-// </foo>
-doc.save(std::cout);
-std::cout << std::endl;
-
