| Javadoc Generated Documentation |
| Xerces Java Parser comes packaged with API documentation for SAX and DOM, the two most common interfaces for programming XML. In addition, we provide documentation for classes that are not part of the SAX and DOM API's, but are useful for writing Xerces-J programs. This documentation is generated automatically from the Javadoc-style comments inside the source files. Click on one of the links below to go to the appropriate API documentation.

| Attr The Attr interface represents an attribute in an Element object CDATASection CDATA sections are used to escape blocks of text containing characters that would otherwise be regarded as markup CharacterData The CharacterData interface extends Node with a set of attributes and methods for accessing character data in the DOM Comment This represents the content of a comment Document The Document interface represents the entire HTML or XML document DocumentFragment DocumentFragment is a "lightweight" or "minimal" Document object DocumentType Each Document has a doctype attribute whose value is either null or a DocumentType object DOMImplementation The DOMImplementation interface provides methods for performing operations independent of a particular document object model instance Element The majority of objects (apart from text) in a document are Element nodes Entity This interface represents an entity, either parsed or unparsed, in a XML document EntityReference EntityReference objects may be inserted into the structure model NamedNodeMap Objects implementing the NamedNodeMap interface are used to represent collections of nodes that can be accessed by name Node The Node interface is the primary datatype for the entire Document Object Model NodeList The NodeList interface provides the abstraction of an ordered collection of nodes Notation This interface represents a notation declared in the DTD ProcessingInstruction The ProcessingInstruction is a way to keep processor-specific information in the text of the document Text The Text interface represents the textual content (termed character data in XML) of an Element or Attr
