Beginnings of a hubbub binding to libdom
Currently comprises a stubbed-out parser wrapper
Todo:
1) Complete parser wrapper, such that it actually creates a DOM tree
2) Provide a hubbub-backed DOMImplementationSource

It consists of two, + orthogonal, parts: + + 1) hubbub parser wrapper + 2) hubbub-specific DOMImplementationSource for libdom + +Push parser wrapper +------------------- + + This is a wrapper around hubbub's parser API, to facilitate + construction of a libdom DOM tree. The basic premise is that the wrapper + intercepts the SAX-like events emitted by hubbub's tokeniser then builds + a libdom DOM tree from them. + +DOMImplementationSource +----------------------- + + The DOMImplementationSource exposes the APIs needed to create a new + document based upon the hubbub binding. It also provides the utility + functions that libdom uses when performing some operations (such as + document normalization). This is needed as libdom is document language + agnostic; therefore, it requires support from the binding to perform + some operations. |
