Class NodeImpl

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Cloneable, EventTarget, Node, NodeList
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    AttrImpl, ChildNode, NotationImpl
    public abstract class NodeImpl
extends Object
implements Node, NodeList, EventTarget, Cloneable, Serializable
    NodeImpl provides the basic structure of a DOM tree. It is never used directly, but instead is subclassed to add type and data information, and additional methods, appropriate to each node of the tree. Only its subclasses should be instantiated -- and those, with the exception of Document itself, only through a specific Document's factory methods.

    The Node interface provides shared behaviors such as siblings and children, both for consistancy and so that the most common tree operations may be performed without constantly having to downcast to specific node types. When there is no obvious mapping for one of these queries, it will respond with null. Note that the default behavior is that children are forbidden. To permit them, the subclass ParentNode overrides several methods.

    NodeImpl also implements NodeList, so it can return itself in response to the getChildNodes() query. This eliminiates the need for a separate ChildNodeList object. Note that this is an IMPLEMENTATION DETAIL; applications should _never_ assume that this identity exists.

    All nodes in a single document must originate in that document. (Note that this is much tighter than "must be same implementation") Nodes are all aware of their ownerDocument, and attempts to mismatch will throw WRONG_DOCUMENT_ERR.

    However, to save memory not all nodes always have a direct reference to their ownerDocument. When a node is owned by another node it relies on its owner to store its ownerDocument. Parent nodes always store it though, so there is never more than one level of indirection. And when a node doesn't have an owner, ownerNode refers to its ownerDocument.

    This class doesn't directly support mutation events, however, it still implements the EventTarget interface and forward all related calls to the document so that the document class do so.

      • getChildNodes

        public NodeList getChildNodes()
        Obtain a NodeList enumerating all children of this node. If there are none, an (initially) empty NodeList is returned.

        NodeLists are "live"; as children are added/removed the NodeList will immediately reflect those changes. Also, the NodeList refers to the actual nodes, so changes to those nodes made via the DOM tree will be reflected in the NodeList and vice versa.

        In this implementation, Nodes implement the NodeList interface and provide their own getChildNodes() support. Other DOMs may solve this differently.

                  throws DOMException
        Move one or more node(s) to our list of children. Note that this implicitly removes them from their previous parent.

        By default we do not accept any children, ParentNode overrides this.

        Specified by:
        insertBefore in interface Node
        Parameters:
        newChild - The Node to be moved to our subtree. As a convenience feature, inserting a DocumentNode will instead insert all its children.
        refChild - Current child which newChild should be placed immediately before. If refChild is null, the insertion occurs after all existing Nodes, like appendChild().
        Returns:
        newChild, in its new state (relocated, or emptied in the case of DocumentNode.)
        Throws:
        DOMException(HIERARCHY_REQUEST_ERR) - if newChild is of a type that shouldn't be a child of this node, or if newChild is an ancestor of this node.

                 throws DOMException
        Remove a child from this Node. The removed child's subtree remains intact so it may be re-inserted elsewhere.

        By default we do not have any children, ParentNode overrides this.

        Specified by:
        removeChild in interface Node
        Returns:

      • normalize

        public void normalize()
        Puts all Text nodes in the full depth of the sub-tree underneath this Node, including attribute nodes, into a "normal" form where only markup (e.g., tags, comments, processing instructions, CDATA sections, and entity references) separates Text nodes, i.e., there are no adjacent Text nodes. This can be used to ensure that the DOM view of a document is the same as if it were saved and re-loaded, and is useful when operations (such as XPointer lookups) that depend on a particular document tree structure are to be used.In cases where the document contains CDATASections, the normalize operation alone may not be sufficient, since XPointers do not differentiate between Text nodes and CDATASection nodes.

        Note that this implementation simply calls normalize() on this Node's children. It is up to implementors or Node to override normalize() to take action.

      • isSupported

        public boolean isSupported​(String feature,
                           String version)
        Introduced in DOM Level 2.

        Tests whether the DOM implementation implements a specific feature and that feature is supported by this node.

        Specified by:
        isSupported in interface Node
        Parameters:
        feature - The package name of the feature to test. This is the same name as what can be passed to the method hasFeature on DOMImplementation.
        version - This is the version number of the package name to test. In Level 2, version 1, this is the string "2.0". If the version is not specified, supporting any version of the feature will cause the method to return true.
        Returns:
        boolean Returns true if this node defines a subtree within which the specified feature is supported, false otherwise.

      • getNamespaceURI

        public String getNamespaceURI()
        Introduced in DOM Level 2.

        The namespace URI of this node, or null if it is unspecified. When this node is of any type other than ELEMENT_NODE and ATTRIBUTE_NODE, this is always null and setting it has no effect.

        This is not a computed value that is the result of a namespace lookup based on an examination of the namespace declarations in scope. It is merely the namespace URI given at creation time.

        For nodes created with a DOM Level 1 method, such as createElement from the Document interface, this is null.

How will this be affected by resolution of relative namespace URIs issue?It's not.Should this only be on Document, Element, ProcessingInstruction, Entity, and Notation nodes, according to the infoset? If not, what is it equal to on other nodes? Null? An empty string? I think it should be the parent's.No.Should this be read-only and computed or and actual read-write attribute?Read-only and computed (F2F 19 Jun 2000 and teleconference 30 May 2001).If the base HTML element is not yet attached to a document, does the insert change the Document.baseURI? Yes. (F2F 26 Sep 2001)

      • setTextContent

        public void setTextContent​(String textContent)
                    throws DOMException
        This attribute returns the text content of this node and its descendants. When it is defined to be null, setting it has no effect. When set, any possible children this node may have are removed and replaced by a single Text node containing the string this attribute is set to. On getting, no serialization is performed, the returned string does not contain any markup. No whitespace normalization is performed, the returned string does not contain the element content whitespaces . Similarly, on setting, no parsing is performed either, the input string is taken as pure textual content.
        The string returned is made of the text content of this node depending on its type, as defined below:

      • isSameNode

        public boolean isSameNode​(Node other)
        Returns whether this node is the same node as the given one.
        This method provides a way to determine whether two Node references returned by the implementation reference the same object. When two Node references are references to the same object, even if through a proxy, the references may be used completely interchangably, such that all attributes have the same values and calling the same DOM method on either reference always has exactly the same effect.
        Specified by:
        isSameNode in interface Node
        Parameters:
        other - The node to test against.
        Returns:
        Returns true if the nodes are the same, false otherwise.
        Since:

        Specified by:
        isDefaultNamespace in interface Node
        Parameters:
        namespaceURI - The namespace URI to look for.

        DOM Level 3 - Experimental: Look up the prefix associated to the given namespace URI, starting from this node.
        Specified by:
        lookupPrefix in interface Node
        Parameters:
        namespaceURI -
        Returns:

      • isEqualNode

        public boolean isEqualNode​(Node arg)
        Tests whether two nodes are equal.
        This method tests for equality of nodes, not sameness (i.e., whether the two nodes are references to the same object) which can be tested with Node.isSameNode. All nodes that are the same will also be equal, though the reverse may not be true.
        Two nodes are equal if and only if the following conditions are satisfied: The two nodes are of the same type.The following string attributes are equal: nodeName, localName, namespaceURI, prefix, nodeValue , baseURI. This is: they are both null, or they have the same length and are character for character identical. The attributes NamedNodeMaps are equal. This is: they are both null, or they have the same length and for each node that exists in one map there is a node that exists in the other map and is equal, although not necessarily at the same index.The childNodes NodeLists are equal. This is: they are both null, or they have the same length and contain equal nodes at the same index. This is true for Attr nodes as for any other type of node. Note that normalization can affect equality; to avoid this, nodes should be normalized before being compared.
        For two DocumentType nodes to be equal, the following conditions must also be satisfied: The following string attributes are equal: publicId, systemId, internalSubset.The entities NamedNodeMaps are equal.The notations NamedNodeMaps are equal.
        On the other hand, the following do not affect equality: the ownerDocument attribute, the specified attribute for Attr nodes, the isWhitespaceInElementContent attribute for Text nodes, as well as any user data or event listeners registered on the nodes.
        Specified by:
        isEqualNode in interface Node
        Parameters:
        arg - The node to compare equality with.
        Returns:
        If the nodes, and possibly subtrees are equal, true otherwise false.

                          UserDataHandler handler)
        Associate an object to a key on this node. The object can later be retrieved from this node by calling getUserData with the same key.
        Specified by:
        setUserData in interface Node
        Parameters:
        key - The key to associate the object to.
        data - The object to associate to the given key, or null to remove any existing association to that key.
        handler - The handler to associate to that key, or null.
        Returns:
        Returns the DOMObject previously associated to the given key on this node, or null if there was none.
        Since:
        DOM Level 3

      • getUserData

        public Object getUserData​(String key)
        Retrieves the object associated to a key on a this node. The object must first have been set to this node by calling setUserData with the same key.
        Specified by:
        getUserData in interface Node
        Parameters:
        key - The key the object is associated to.
        Returns:
        Returns the DOMObject associated to the given key on this node, or null if there was none.

      • setReadOnly

        public void setReadOnly​(boolean readOnly,
                        boolean deep)
        NON-DOM: PR-DOM-Level-1-19980818 mentions readonly nodes in conjunction with Entities, but provides no API to support this.

        Most DOM users should not touch this method. Its anticpated use is during construction of EntityRefernces, where it will be used to lock the contents replicated from Entity so they can't be casually altered. It _could_ be published as a DOM extension, if desired.

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

        Parameters:
        readOnly - True or false as desired.
        deep - If true, children are also toggled. Note that this will not change the state of an EntityReference or its children, which are always read-only.

      • getReadOnly

        public boolean getReadOnly()
        NON-DOM: Returns true if this node is read-only. This is a shallow check.

      • setUserData

        public void setUserData​(Object data)
        NON-DOM: As an alternative to subclassing the DOM, this implementation has been extended with the ability to attach an object to each node. (If you need multiple objects, you can attach a collection such as a vector or hashtable, then attach your application information to that.)

        Important Note: You are responsible for removing references to your data on nodes that are no longer used. Failure to do so will prevent the nodes, your data is attached to, to be garbage collected until the whole document is.

        Parameters:
        data - the object to store or null to remove any existing reference

      • getUserData

        public Object getUserData()
        NON-DOM: Returns the user data associated to this node.

      • changed

        protected void changed()
        Denotes that this node has changed.

      • changes

        protected int changes()
        Returns the number of changes to this node.

      • synchronizeData

        protected void synchronizeData()
        Override this method in subclass to hook in efficient internal data structure.
