This library provides support for the XML literal syntax in Scala programs.

val planets: scala.xml.Elem = <planets>
  <planet id="earth">
    <title>Earth</title>
    <mass unit="kg">5.9742e24</mass>
    <radius unit="m">6378.14e3</radius>
  </planet>
  <planet id="mars">
    <title>Mars</title>
    <mass unit="kg">0.64191e24</mass>
    <radius unit="m">3397.0e3</radius>
  </planet>
</planets>

Additionally, you can mix Scala expressions in your XML elements by using the curly brace notation:

val sunMass = 1.99e30
val sunRadius = 6.96e8
val star = <star>
  <title>Sun</title>
  <mass unit="kg">{ sunMass }</mass>
  <radius unit="m">{ sunRadius }</radius>
  <surface unit="m²">{ 4 * Math.PI * Math.pow(sunRadius, 2) }</surface>
  <volume unit="m³">{ 4/3 * Math.PI * Math.pow(sunRadius, 3) }</volume>
</star>

An XML element, for example <star/> and <planet/>, is represented in this library as a case class, scala.xml.Elem.

The sub-elements of XML values share a common base class, scala.xml.Node.

However, the non-element declarations found in XML files share a different common base class, scala.xml.dtd.Decl. Additionally, document type declarations are represented by a different trait, scala.xml.dtd.DTD.

For reading and writing XML data to and from files, see scala.xml.XML. The default parser of XML data is the Xerces parser and is provided in Java by javax.xml.parsers.SAXParser.

For more control of the input, use the parser written in Scala that is provided, scala.xml.parsing.ConstructingParser.

For working with XHTML input, use scala.xml.parsing.XhtmlParser.

For more control of the output, use the scala.xml.PrettyPrinter.

Utility methods for working with XML data are provided in scala.xml.Utility.

XML values in Scala are immutable, but you can traverse and transform XML data with a scala.xml.transform.RuleTransformer.

Type Members

class CircularIncludeException extends XIncludeException
A CircularIncludeException is thrown when an included document attempts to include itself or one of its ancestor documents.
class UnavailableResourceException extends XIncludeException
An UnavailableResourceException is thrown when an included document cannot be found or loaded.
class XIncludeException extends Exception
XIncludeException is the generic superclass for all checked exceptions that may be thrown as a result of a violation of XInclude's rules.
XIncludeException is the generic superclass for all checked exceptions that may be thrown as a result of a violation of XInclude's rules.
Constructs an XIncludeException with the specified detail message. The error message string message can later be retrieved by the java.lang.Throwable#getMessage method of class java.lang.Throwable.
