public abstract class ChildNode

extends NodeImpl

ChildNode inherits from NodeImpl and adds the capability of being a child by having references to its previous and next siblings.

Field Detail

nextSibling

protected ChildNode nextSibling

Deprecated.

Next sibling.

previousSibling

protected ChildNode previousSibling

Deprecated.

Previous sibling.

Constructor Detail

ChildNode

public ChildNode()

Deprecated.

Constructor for serialization.

ChildNode

protected ChildNode(CoreDocumentImpl ownerDocument)

Deprecated.

No public constructor; only subclasses of Node should be instantiated, and those normally via a Document's factory methods

Every Node knows what Document it belongs to.

Method Detail

cloneNode

public Node cloneNode(boolean deep)

Deprecated.

Returns a duplicate of a given node. You can consider this a generic "copy constructor" for nodes. The newly returned object should be completely independent of the source object's subtree, so changes in one after the clone has been made will not affect the other.

Note: since we never have any children deep is meaningless here, ParentNode overrides this behavior.

Specified by:

cloneNode in interface Node

Overrides:

cloneNode in class NodeImpl

See Also:

Example: Cloning a Text node will copy both the node and the text it contains.

Example: Cloning something that has children -- Element or Attr, for example -- will _not_ clone those children unless a "deep clone" has been requested. A shallow clone of an Attr node will yield an empty Attr of the same name.

NOTE: Clones will always be read/write, even if the node being cloned is read-only, to permit applications using only the DOM API to obtain editable copies of locked portions of the tree.

getNextSibling

public Node getNextSibling()

Deprecated.

The next child of this node's parent, or null if none

Specified by:

getNextSibling in interface Node

Overrides:

getNextSibling in class NodeImpl

getParentNode

public Node getParentNode()

Deprecated.

Returns the parent node of this node

Specified by:

getParentNode in interface Node

Overrides:

getParentNode in class NodeImpl

getPreviousSibling

public Node getPreviousSibling()

Deprecated.

The previous child of this node's parent, or null if none

Specified by:

getPreviousSibling in interface Node

Overrides:

getPreviousSibling in class NodeImpl
