Direct Known Subclasses:

CDATASectionImpl, DeferredTextImpl

public class TextImpl

extends CharacterDataImpl

implements org.w3c.dom.CharacterData, org.w3c.dom.Text

Text nodes hold the non-markup, non-Entity content of an Element or Attribute.

When a document is first made available to the DOM, there is only one Text object for each block of adjacent plain-text. Users (ie, applications) may create multiple adjacent Texts during editing -- see Node.normalize() for discussion.

Note that CDATASection is a subclass of Text. This is conceptually valid, since they're really just two different ways of quoting characters when they're written out as part of an XML stream.

This class is based on an implementation from the Apache XML Project. In future releases the XML parser, XSLT processor, and associated classes will likely be updated to be based on a later version of the Apache implementations. Since Apache does not guarantee backwards compatibility between versions of their software, we cannot guarantee backwards compatibility of any of the classes contained in the weblogic.apache package or sub-packages.

Constructor Detail

TextImpl

public TextImpl()

Default constructor

TextImpl

public TextImpl(CoreDocumentImpl ownerDoc,
                java.lang.String data)

Factory constructor.

Method Detail

setValues

public void setValues(CoreDocumentImpl ownerDoc,
                      java.lang.String data)

NON-DOM: resets node and sets specified values for the current node

Parameters:

ownerDoc -

data -

getNodeType

public short getNodeType()

A short integer indicating what type of node this is. The named constants for this value are defined in the org.w3c.dom.Node interface.

Overrides:

getNodeType in class NodeImpl

getNodeName

public java.lang.String getNodeName()

Returns the node name.

Overrides:

getNodeName in class NodeImpl

setIgnorableWhitespace

public void setIgnorableWhitespace(boolean ignore)

NON-DOM: Set whether this Text is ignorable whitespace.

getIsWhitespaceInElementContent

public boolean getIsWhitespaceInElementContent()

DOM Level 3 WD - Experimental. Returns whether this text node contains whitespace in element content, often abusively called "ignorable whitespace".

getWholeText

public java.lang.String getWholeText()

DOM Level 3 WD - Experimental. Returns all text of Text nodes logically-adjacent text nodes to this node, concatenated in document order.

replaceWholeText

public org.w3c.dom.Text replaceWholeText(java.lang.String content)
                                  throws org.w3c.dom.DOMException

DOM Level 3 WD - Experimental.

isIgnorableWhitespace

public boolean isIgnorableWhitespace()

NON-DOM: Returns whether this Text is ignorable whitespace.

splitText

public org.w3c.dom.Text splitText(int offset)
                           throws org.w3c.dom.DOMException

Break a text node into two sibling nodes. (Note that if the current node has no parent, they won't wind up as "siblings" -- they'll both be orphans.)

Specified by:

splitText in interface org.w3c.dom.Text

Parameters:

offset - The offset at which to split. If offset is at the end of the available data, the second node will be empty.

Throws:

DOMException(INDEX_SIZE_ERR) - if offset is <0 or >length.

DOMException(NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR) - if node is read-only.

replaceData

public void replaceData(java.lang.String value)

NON-DOM (used by DOMParser): Reset data for the node.

removeData

public java.lang.String removeData()

NON-DOM (used by DOMParser: Sets data to empty string. Returns the value the data was set to.
