要解析xml文件,当然要先了解一下什么是xml文件啦,在这里就不说了,接上一篇文章,由于是要获取新浪的新闻,我是新浪的rss中心里面找到相应的新闻类别,比如 体育新闻,然后点击xml,此时打开的是浏览器显示的xml文件,而我们要解析这个文件,是需要看它的源代码的,看看主要是有哪些标签,我要提取的主要是新闻的标题,发表时间,以及详细内容的链接,所以就找出这三个标签,分别是title、pubdate、link。
objective-c解析xml文件在网上有很多很强大的第三方库,因为我要的功能很简单,所以只需要用NSXMLParser来解析就可以了,在这个类的delegate中,有三个重要的函数需要去实现
#pragma NSXMLParserDelegate
-(void)parser:(NSXMLParser *)parser didStartElement:(NSString *)elementName
namespaceURI:(NSString *)namespaceURI
qualifiedName:(NSString *)qName
attributes:(NSDictionary *)attributeDict
{
if([elementName isEqualToString:@"title"])
{
if(self.newsTitle == nil)
self.newsTitle = [[NSMutableArray alloc]init];
}
else if([elementName isEqualToString:@"link"])
{
if(self.newsLink == nil)
self.newsLink = [[NSMutableArray alloc]init];
}
else if([elementName isEqualToString:@"pubDate"])
{
if(self.newsPubdate == nil)
self.newsPubdate = [[NSMutableArray alloc]init];
}
}
-(void)parser:(NSXMLParser *)parser foundCharacters:(NSString *)string
{
if(self.tempString == nil)
self.tempString = [[NSMutableString alloc]init];
[self.tempString appendString:string];
}
-(void)parser:(NSXMLParser *)parser didEndElement:(NSString *)elementName
namespaceURI:(NSString *)namespaceURI
qualifiedName:(NSString *)qName
{
if([elementName isEqualToString:@"title"])
{
[self.newsTitle addObject:self.tempString];
}
else if([elementName isEqualToString:@"link"])
{
[self.newsLink addObject:self.tempString];
}
else if([elementName isEqualToString:@"pubDate"])
{
[self.newsPubdate addObject:self.tempString];
}
self.tempString = nil;
}
就是这三个函数,遇到开始标签时会调用第一个函数,在读取开始标签和结束标签之间的内容时,会反复调用第二个函数,在遇到结束标签时,会调用最后一个函数。
实现了这三个函数,一俄就可以解析xml文件了。
当然要实现上面的三个函数,需要将我现在的这个类作为NSXMLParserDelegate的delegator,而且在创建完NSXMLparser的对象后,要调用setDelegate方法,声明自己就是delegator,然后再调用parser方法,就会开始解析xml文件了,也就是反复调用上面的三个函数。
好了,下面是这个UITbaleViewController的完整代码
