Class AbstractNode

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    NodeInfo, javax.xml.transform.dom.DOMLocator, javax.xml.transform.Source, javax.xml.transform.SourceLocator, org.w3c.dom.Node
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    NodeImpl, TinyNodeImpl

    public abstract class AbstractNode
    extends java.lang.Object
    implements org.w3c.dom.Node, NodeInfo, javax.xml.transform.SourceLocator, javax.xml.transform.dom.DOMLocator
    This class is an abstract implementation of the Saxon NodeInfo interface; it also contains concrete implementations of most of the DOM methods in terms of the NodeInfo methods. These include all the methods defined on the DOM Node class itself, and most of those defined on subclasses such as Document, Text, and Comment: because of the absence of multiple inheritance, this is the only way of making these methods reusable by multiple implementations. The class contains no data, and can be used as a common superclass for different implementations of Node and NodeInfo.

        This attribute returns the text content of this node and its descendants. When it is defined to be null, setting it has no effect. On setting, any possible children this node may have are removed and, if it the new string is not empty or null, 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 and the returned string does not contain the white spaces in element content (see the attribute Text.isElementContentWhitespace). 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
        ELEMENT_NODE, ATTRIBUTE_NODE, ENTITY_NODE, ENTITY_REFERENCE_NODE, DOCUMENT_FRAGMENT_NODE concatenation of the textContent attribute value of every child node, excluding COMMENT_NODE and PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION_NODE nodes. This is the empty string if the node has no children.

        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 . 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. 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, baseURI, and parentNode attributes, the specified attribute for Attr nodes, the schemaTypeInfo attribute for Attr and Element nodes, the Text.isElementContentWhitespace attribute for Text nodes, as well as any user data or event listeners registered on the nodes.

        Note: As a general rule, anything not mentioned in the description above is not significant in consideration of equality checking. Note that future versions of this specification may take into account more attributes and implementations conform to this specification are expected to be updated accordingly.

        Specified by:
        isEqualNode in interface org.w3c.dom.Node
        Parameters:
        arg - The node to compare equality with.

        public boolean isSameNode​(org.w3c.dom.Node other)
        Returns whether this node is the same node as the given one.
        This method provides a way to determine whether two Node references returned by the implementation reference the same object. When two Node references are references to the same object, even if through a proxy, the references may be used completely interchangeably, such that all attributes have the same values and calling the same DOM method on either reference always has exactly the same effect.
        Specified by:

        This attribute returns the text content of this node and its descendants. When it is defined to be null, setting it has no effect. On setting, any possible children this node may have are removed and, if it the new string is not empty or null, 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 and the returned string does not contain the white spaces in element content (see the attribute Text.isElementContentWhitespace). 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
        ELEMENT_NODE, ATTRIBUTE_NODE, ENTITY_NODE, ENTITY_REFERENCE_NODE, DOCUMENT_FRAGMENT_NODE concatenation of the textContent attribute value of every child node, excluding COMMENT_NODE and PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION_NODE nodes. This is the empty string if the node has no children.
        TEXT_NODE, CDATA_SECTION_NODE, COMMENT_NODE, PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION_NODE nodeValue
        DOCUMENT_NODE, DOCUMENT_TYPE_NODE, NOTATION_NODE null
        Specified by:
        setTextContent in interface org.w3c.dom.Node
        Throws:
        org.w3c.dom.DOMException - NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised when the node is readonly.

        public java.lang.Object setUserData​(java.lang.String key,
                                            java.lang.Object data,
                                            org.w3c.dom.UserDataHandler handler)
        Associate an object to a key on this node. The object can later be retrieved from this node by calling getUserData with the same key.
        Specified by:
        setUserData in interface org.w3c.dom.Node
        Parameters:
        key - The key to associate the object to.
        data - The object to associate to the given key, or null to remove any existing association to that key.
        handler - The handler to associate to that key, or null.
        Returns:
        Returns the DOMUserData previously associated to the given key on this node, or null if there was none.

      • getWholeText

        public java.lang.String getWholeText()
        Returns all text of Text nodes logically-adjacent text nodes to this node, concatenated in document order.
        For instance, in the example below wholeText on the Text node that contains "bar" returns "barfoo", while on the Text node that contains "foo" it returns "barfoo".

        DOM Level 3
      • isElementContentWhitespace

        public boolean isElementContentWhitespace()
        Returns whether this text node contains element content whitespace, often abusively called "ignorable whitespace". The text node is determined to contain whitespace in element content during the load of the document or if validation occurs while using Document.normalizeDocument().

        The Saxon implementation always returns false.

      • replaceWholeText

        public org.w3c.dom.Text replaceWholeText​(java.lang.String content)
                                          throws org.w3c.dom.DOMException
        Replaces the text of the current node and all logically-adjacent text nodes with the specified text. All logically-adjacent text nodes are removed including the current node unless it was the recipient of the replacement text.
        This method returns the node which received the replacement text. The returned node is:
        • null, when the replacement text is the empty string;
        • the current node, except when the current node is read-only;
        • a new Text node of the same type ( Text or CDATASection) as the current node inserted at the location of the replacement.

        For instance, in the above example calling replaceWholeText on the Text node that contains "bar" with "yo" in argument results in the following:
        Where the nodes to be removed are read-only descendants of an EntityReference, the EntityReference must be removed instead of the read-only nodes. If any EntityReference to be removed has descendants that are not EntityReference, Text, or CDATASection nodes, the replaceWholeText method must fail before performing any modification of the document, raising a DOMException with the code NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR.
        For instance, in the example below calling replaceWholeText on the Text node that contains "bar" fails, because the EntityReference node "ent" contains an Element node which cannot be removed.
        Parameters:
        content - The content of the replacing Text node.
        Returns:
        The Text node created with the specified content.
        Throws:
        org.w3c.dom.DOMException - NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if one of the Text nodes being replaced is readonly.

                            throws org.w3c.dom.DOMException
        If the parameter isId is true, this method declares the specified attribute to be a user-determined ID attribute . This affects the value of Attr.isId and the behavior of Document.getElementById, but does not change any schema that may be in use, in particular this does not affect the Attr.schemaTypeInfo of the specified Attr node. Use the value false for the parameter isId to undeclare an attribute for being a user-determined ID attribute.
        To specify an attribute by local name and namespace URI, use the setIdAttributeNS method.
        Parameters:
        name - The name of the attribute.
        isId - Whether the attribute is a of type ID.
        Throws:
        org.w3c.dom.DOMException - NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.
        NOT_FOUND_ERR: Raised if the specified node is not an attribute of this element.
