Method Detail

• getParentNode

  TemplateNodeModel getParentNode​()
                           throws TemplateModelException

  Returns:

  the parent of this node or null, in which case this node is the root of the tree.

  Throws:

  TemplateModelException

• getChildNodes

  TemplateSequenceModel getChildNodes​()
                               throws TemplateModelException

  Returns:

  a sequence containing this node's children. If the returned value is null or empty, this is essentially a leaf node.

  Throws:

  TemplateModelException

• getNodeName

  java.lang.String getNodeName​()
                        throws TemplateModelException

  Returns:

  a String that is used to determine the processing routine to use. In the XML implementation, if the node is an element, it returns the element's tag name. If it is an attribute, it returns the attribute's name. It returns "@text" for text nodes, "@pi" for processing instructions, and so on.

  Throws:

  TemplateModelException

• getNodeType

  java.lang.String getNodeType​()
                        throws TemplateModelException

  Returns:

  a String describing the type of node this is. In the W3C DOM, this should be "element", "text", "attribute", etc. A TemplateNodeModel implementation that models other kinds of trees could return whatever it appropriate for that application. It can be null, if you don't want to use node-types.

  Throws:

  TemplateModelException

• getNodeNamespace

  java.lang.String getNodeNamespace​()
                             throws TemplateModelException

  Returns:

  the XML namespace URI with which this node is associated. If this TemplateNodeModel implementation is not XML-related, it will almost certainly be null. Even for XML nodes, this will often be null.

  Throws:

  TemplateModelException
