  Construct an instance.

Method Detail

• getLocalNameOfNode

  public java.lang.String getLocalNameOfNode​(org.w3c.dom.Node n)

  Returns the local name of the given node, as defined by the XML Namespaces specification. This is prepared to handle documents built using DOM Level 1 methods by falling back upon explicitly parsing the node name.

  Parameters:

  n - Node to be examined

  Returns:

  String containing the local name, or null if the node was not assigned a Namespace.

• getNamespaceOfNode

  public java.lang.String getNamespaceOfNode​(org.w3c.dom.Node n)

  Returns the Namespace Name (Namespace URI) for the given node. In a Level 2 DOM, you can ask the node itself. Note, however, that doing so conflicts with our decision in getLocalNameOfNode not to trust the that the DOM was indeed created using the Level 2 methods. If Level 1 methods were used, these two functions will disagree with each other.

  TODO: Reconcile with getLocalNameOfNode.

  Parameters:

  n - Node to be examined

  Returns:

  String containing the Namespace URI bound to this DOM node at the time the Node was created.
