Class ParentNode

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.lang.Cloneable, org.w3c.dom.events.EventTarget, org.w3c.dom.Node, org.w3c.dom.NodeList
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    CoreDocumentImpl, DocumentFragmentImpl, DocumentTypeImpl, ElementImpl, EntityImpl, EntityReferenceImpl

    public abstract class ParentNode
    extends ChildNode
    ParentNode inherits from ChildNode and adds the capability of having child nodes. Not every node in the DOM can have children, so only nodes that can should inherit from this class and pay the price for it.

    ParentNode, just like NodeImpl, also implements NodeList, so it can return itself in response to the getChildNodes() query. This eliminiates the need for a separate ChildNodeList object. Note that this is an IMPLEMENTATION DETAIL; applications should _never_ assume that this identity exists. On the other hand, subclasses may need to override this, in case of conflicting names. This is the case for the classes HTMLSelectElementImpl and HTMLFormElementImpl of the HTML DOM.

    While we have a direct reference to the first child, the last child is stored as the previous sibling of the first child. First child nodes are marked as being so, and getNextSibling hides this fact.

    Note: Not all parent nodes actually need to also be a child. At some point we used to have ParentNode inheriting from NodeImpl and another class called ChildAndParentNode that inherited from ChildNode. But due to the lack of multiple inheritance a lot of code had to be duplicated which led to a maintenance nightmare. At the same time only a few nodes (Document, DocumentFragment, Entity, and Attribute) cannot be a child so the gain in memory wasn't really worth it. The only type for which this would be the case is Attribute, but we deal with there in another special way, so this is not applicable.

    This class doesn't directly support mutation events, however, it notifies the document when mutations are performed so that the document class do so.

    WARNING: Some of the code here is partially duplicated in AttrImpl, be careful to keep these two classes in sync!

        public org.w3c.dom.NodeList getChildNodes()
        Obtain a NodeList enumerating all children of this node. If there are none, an (initially) empty NodeList is returned.

        NodeLists are "live"; as children are added/removed the NodeList will immediately reflect those changes. Also, the NodeList refers to the actual nodes, so changes to those nodes made via the DOM tree will be reflected in the NodeList and vice versa.

        In this implementation, Nodes implement the NodeList interface and provide their own getChildNodes() support. Other DOMs may solve this differently. Obtain a NodeList enumerating all children of this node. If there are none, an (initially) empty NodeList is returned.

        Description copied from class: NodeImpl
        This attribute returns the text content of this node and its descendants. When it is defined to be null, setting it has no effect. When set, any possible children this node may have are removed and replaced by a single Text node containing the string this attribute is set to. On getting, no serialization is performed, the returned string does not contain any markup. No whitespace normalization is performed, the returned string does not contain the element content whitespaces . Similarly, on setting, no parsing is performed either, the input string is taken as pure textual content.
        The string returned is made of the text content of this node depending on its type, as defined below:
        Node type Content

        Create a NodeList to access children that is use by subclass elements that have methods named getLength() or item(int). ChildAndParentNode optimizes getChildNodes() by implementing NodeList itself. However if a subclass Element implements methods with the same name as the NodeList methods, they will override the actually methods in this class.

      • isEqualNode

        public boolean isEqualNode​(org.w3c.dom.Node arg)
        Tests whether two nodes are equal.
        This method tests for equality of nodes, not sameness (i.e., whether the two nodes are references to the same object) which can be tested with Node.isSameNode. All nodes that are the same will also be equal, though the reverse may not be true.
        Two nodes are equal if and only if the following conditions are satisfied: The two nodes are of the same type.The following string attributes are equal: nodeName, localName, namespaceURI, prefix, nodeValue , baseURI. This is: they are both null, or they have the same length and are character for character identical. The attributes NamedNodeMaps are equal. This is: they are both null, or they have the same length and for each node that exists in one map there is a node that exists in the other map and is equal, although not necessarily at the same index.The childNodes NodeLists are equal. This is: they are both null, or they have the same length and contain equal nodes at the same index. This is true for Attr nodes as for any other type of node. Note that normalization can affect equality; to avoid this, nodes should be normalized before being compared.
        For two DocumentType nodes to be equal, the following conditions must also be satisfied: The following string attributes are equal: publicId, systemId, internalSubset.The entities NamedNodeMaps are equal.The notations NamedNodeMaps are equal.
        On the other hand, the following do not affect equality: the ownerDocument attribute, the specified attribute for Attr nodes, the isWhitespaceInElementContent attribute for Text nodes, as well as any user data or event listeners registered on the nodes. DOM Level 3 WD- Experimental. Override inherited behavior from NodeImpl to support deep equal.
        Specified by:

        Overrides:
        isEqualNode in class NodeImpl
        Parameters:
        arg - The node to compare equality with.
        Returns:
        If the nodes, and possibly subtrees are equal, true otherwise false.

      • checkNormalizationAfterInsert

        void checkNormalizationAfterInsert​(ChildNode insertedChild)
        Checks the normalized state of this node after inserting a child. If the inserted child causes this node to be unnormalized, then this node is flagged accordingly. The conditions for changing the normalized state are:
        • The inserted child is a text node and one of its adjacent siblings is also a text node.
        • The inserted child is is itself unnormalized.
        Parameters:

        Parameters:
        previousSibling - the previous sibling of the removed child, or null
