private static class DocumentReader.Start extends EventElement
TheStart
object is used to represent the start of an XML element. This will hold the attributes associated with the element and will provide the name, the namespace reference and the namespace prefix. For debugging purposes the source XML element is provided for this start event.

Start
public Start(org.w3c.dom.Node element)
Constructor for theStart
object. This will wrap the provided node and expose the required details such as the name, namespace prefix and namespace reference. The provided element node can be acquired for debugging purposes.- Parameters:
element
- this is the element being wrapped by this
-
-
Method Detail
-
getName
public java.lang.String getName()
This provides the name of the event. This will be the name of an XML element the event represents. If there is a prefix associated with the element, this extracts that prefix.- Returns:
- this returns the name without the namespace prefix
-
getPrefix
public java.lang.String getPrefix()
This is used to acquire the namespace prefix associated with this node. A prefix is used to qualify an XML element or attribute within a namespace. So, if this represents a text event then a namespace prefix is not required.- Returns:
- this returns the namespace prefix for this event
-
getReference
public java.lang.String getReference()
This is used to acquire the namespace reference that this node is in. A namespace is normally associated with an XML element or attribute, so text events and element close events are not required to contain any namespace references.- Returns:
- this will provide the associated namespace reference
-
getAttributes
public org.w3c.dom.NamedNodeMap getAttributes()
This is used to acquire the attributes associated with the element. Providing the attributes in this format allows the reader to build a list of attributes for the event.- Returns:
- this returns the attributes associated with this
-
getSource
public java.lang.Object getSource()
This is used to return the node for the event. Because this represents a DOM element node the DOM node will be returned. Returning the node helps with certain debugging issues.- Returns:
- this will return the source object for this event
