  +--weblogic.apache.xerces.util.XMLAttributesImpl

public class XMLAttributesImpl
extends java.lang.Object
implements XMLAttributes

The XMLAttributesImpl class is an implementation of the XMLAttributes interface which defines a collection of attributes for an element. In the parser, the document source would scan the entire start element and collect the attributes. The attributes are communicated to the document handler in the startElement method.

The attributes are read-write so that subsequent stages in the document pipeline can modify the values or change the attributes that are propogated to the next stage.

Method Detail

setNamespaces

public void setNamespaces(boolean namespaces)
Sets whether namespace processing is being performed. This state is needed to return the correct value from the getLocalName method.

Parameters:
namespaces - True if namespace processing is turned on.
See Also:
getLocalName(int)

addAttribute

public int addAttribute(QName name,
                        java.lang.String type,
                        java.lang.String value)
Adds an attribute. The attribute's non-normalized value of the attribute will have the same value as the attribute value until set using the setNonNormalizedValue method. Also, the added attribute will be marked as specified in the XML instance document unless set otherwise using the setSpecified method.

Note: If an attribute of the same name already exists, the old values for the attribute are replaced by the new values.

Specified by:
addAttribute in interface XMLAttributes

Parameters:
attrName - The attribute name.
attrType - The attribute type. The type name is determined by the type specified for this attribute in the DTD. For example: "CDATA", "ID", "NMTOKEN", etc. However, attributes of type enumeration will have the type value specified as the pipe ('|') separated list of the enumeration values prefixed by an open parenthesis and suffixed by a close parenthesis. For example: "(true|false)".

Returns:
Returns the attribute index.

Look up an attribute's type by index.

The attribute type is one of the strings "CDATA", "ID", "IDREF", "IDREFS", "NMTOKEN", "NMTOKENS", "ENTITY", "ENTITIES", or "NOTATION" (always in upper case).

If the parser has not read a declaration for the attribute, or if the parser does not report attribute types, then it must return the value "CDATA" as stated in the XML 1.0 Recommentation (clause 3.3.3, "Attribute-Value Normalization").

For an enumerated attribute that is not a notation, the parser will report the type as "NMTOKEN".

Specified by:

Parameters:
index - The attribute index (zero-based).
Returns:
The attribute's type as a string, or null if the index is out of range.
See Also:
