<h4 class="subsubheading"> Getting the Plugin </h4>
<p>This plugin has <samp>‘crystalspace.syntax.loader.service.text’</samp> as plugin id.
Usually this plugin is already loaded if you also use the main loader plugin.
In that case you can get this plugin from the object registry by doing:
</p>
<table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">csRef<iSyntaxService> services = csQueryRegistry<iSyntaxService> (object_reg);
</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>If you need to load the plugin yourselves then the following code would
work. This code will first check if the plugin is already loaded. If not
it will load it:
</p>
<table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">csRef<iSyntaxService> services = csLoadPluginCheck<iSyntaxService> (
object_reg, "crystalspace.syntax.loader.service.text");
</pre></td></tr></table>
<a name="2"></a>
<h4 class="subsubheading"> Introduction </h4>
<p>This plugin implements the <code>iSyntaxService</code> interface. The definition
of this interface can be found in <tt>‘imap/services.h’</tt>. There are
basically three kinds of functions in this interface:
</p>
<ul>
<li> <samp>‘Reporting Helpers’</samp>
These are functions that make it easier for a plugin writer to report
an error to the user.
</li><li> <samp>‘Parsing Helpers’</samp>
These functions are the main part of this plugin. They all start with
<samp>‘Parse’</samp> and help with parsing a small part of the <small>XML</small> format.
They all expect a node (<code>iDocumentNode</code>) to be parsed as the input
and they return the parsed result or an error.
</li><li> <samp>‘Writing Helpers’</samp>
These functions create <small>XML</small> (in the given <code>iDocumentNode</code> parameter)
for some basic Crystal Space object. They are useful if you ware making
a plugin that saves <small>XML</small>.
</li></ul>
<p>In this document we explain a few of the more important parsing functions
present in this plugin.
