This interface represents a document node as defined in the XPath 2.0 data model.
It extends NodeInfo, which is used to represent any node. Every document node must
be an instance of DocumentInfo.
The interface supports two methods in addition to those for NodeInfo: one to find
elements given their ID value, and one to locate unparsed entities. In addition,
document nodes have an important property that is not true of nodes in general:
two distinct Java DocumentInfo objects never represent the same document node.
So the Java "==" operator returns the same result as the NodeInfo.isSameNodeInfo(net.sf.saxon.om.NodeInfo)
method.
This interface is part of the Saxon public API, and as such (from Saxon8.4 onwards) those methods that form part of the stable public API are labelled with a JavaDoc "since" tag to indicate when they were added to the product.

Method Details
-
selectID
Get the element with a given ID, if any- Parameters:
id
- the required ID value- Returns:
- the element with the given ID, or null if there is no such ID present (or if the parser has not notified attributes as being of type ID)
- Since:
- 8.4
-
getUnparsedEntity
Get the unparsed entity with a given name- Parameters:
name
- the name of the entity- Returns:
- if the entity exists, return an array of two Strings, the first holding the system ID of the entity, the second holding the public ID if there is one, or null if not. If the entity does not exist, the method returns null. Applications should be written on the assumption that this array may be extended in the future to provide additional information.
