/* W3C Sample Code Library libwww Anchor Class */ /* ** (c) COPYRIGHT MIT 1995. ** Please first read the full copyright statement in the file COPYRIGH. */ /* An anchor represents a region of a hypertext document which is linked to another anchor in the same or a different document. Another name for anchors would be URLs as an anchor represents all we know about a URL - including where it points to and who points to it. Because the anchor objects represent the part of the Web, the application has been in touch, it is often useful to maintain the anchors throughout the lifetime of the application. It would actually be most useful if we had persistent anchors so that an application could build up a higher knowledge about the Web topology. This module is implemented by HTAnchor.c, and it is a part of the W3C Sample Code Library. */ #ifndef HTANCHOR_H #define HTANCHOR_H /* This is a set of videly used type definitions used through out the Library: */ #include "WWWUtil.h" typedef HTAtom * HTFormat; typedef HTAtom * HTLevel; /* Used to specify HTML level */ typedef HTAtom * HTEncoding; /* C-E and C-T-E */ typedef HTAtom * HTCharset; typedef HTAtom * HTLanguage; typedef struct _HTAnchor HTAnchor; typedef struct _HTParentAnchor HTParentAnchor; typedef struct _HTChildAnchor HTChildAnchor; #include "HTLink.h" #include "HTMethod.h" #include "HTResponse.h" /* We have three variants of the Anchor object - I guess some would call them superclass and subclasses ;-) Anchor Base Class This is the super class of anchors. We often use this as an argument to the functions that both accept parent anchors and child anchors. We separate the first link from the others to avoid too many small mallocs involved by a list creation. Most anchors only point to one place. Anchor for a Parent Object These anchors points to the whole contents of any resource accesible by a URI. The parent anchor now contains all known metainformation about that object and in some cases the parent anchor also contains the document itself. Often we get the metainformation about a document via the entity headers in the HTTP specification. Anchor for a Child Object A child anchor is a anchor object that points to a subpart of a hypertext document. In HTML this is represented by the NAME tag of the Anchor element. After we have defined the data structures we must define the methods that can be used on them. All anchors are kept in an internal hash table so that they are easier to find again. This one is for a reference (link) which is found in a document, and might not be already loaded. The parent anchor returned can either be created on the spot or is already in the hash table. */ extern HTAnchor * HTAnchor_findAddress (const char * address); /* This one is for a new child anchor being edited into an existing document.
