getNodeType
public short getNodeType()Description copied from interface:Node
Returns the code according to the type of node. This makes processing nodes polymorphically much easier as the switch statement can be used instead of multiple if (instanceof) statements.- Specified by:
getNodeType
in interfaceNode
- Overrides:
getNodeType
in classAbstractNode
- Returns:
- a W3C DOM complient code for the node type such as ELEMENT_NODE or ATTRIBUTE_NODE
-
getName
Description copied from interface:Node
getName
returns the name of this node. This is the XML local name of the element, attribute, entity or processing instruction. For CDATA and Text nodes this method will return null.- Specified by:
getName
in interfaceNode
- Overrides:
getName
in classAbstractNode
- Returns:
- the XML name of this node
-
setName
Description copied from interface:Node
Sets the text data of this node or this method will throw an
UnsupportedOperationException
if it is read-only.- Specified by:
setName
in interfaceNode
- Overrides:
setName
in classAbstractNode
- Parameters:
name
- is the new name of this node
-
getPath
Description copied from interface:Node
Returns the relative XPath expression which will return a node set containing the given node such as a/b/@c. No indexing will be used to restrict the path if multiple elements with the same name occur on the path.- Specified by:
getPath
in interfaceNode
- Parameters:
context
- is the parent context from which the relative path should start. If the context is null or the context is not an ancestor of this node then the path will be absolute and start from the document and so begin with the '/' character.- Returns:
- the XPath expression relative to the given context which will return a nodeset containing at least this node.
-
getUniquePath
Description copied from interface:Node
Returns the relative unique XPath expression from the given context which will return a nodeset of one node which is the current node. This method will use the XPath index operator to restrict the path if multiple elements with the same name occur on the path.
- Specified by:
getUniquePath
in interfaceNode
- Parameters:
context
- is the parent context from which the path should start. If the context is null or the context is not an ancestor of this node then the path will start from the document and so begin with the '/' character.- Returns:
- the XPath expression relative to the given context which will return a nodeset containing just this node.
-
getText
Returns the text format of the declarations if applicable, or the empty String- Specified by:
getText
in interfaceNode
- Overrides:
getText
in classAbstractNode
- Returns:
- DOCUMENT ME!
-
toString
-
asXML
-
write
Description copied from interface:Node
write
writes this node as the default XML notation for this node. If you wish to control the XML output (such as for pretty printing, changing the indentation policy etc.) then please useXMLWriter
or its derivations.- Specified by:
write
in interfaceNode
- Overrides:
write
in classAbstractNode
- Parameters:
writer
- is theWriter
to output the XML to- Throws:
IOException
- DOCUMENT ME!
-
