public class ElementDefinitionImpl
extends ParentNode

NON-DOM CLASS: Describe one of the Elements (and its associated Attributes) defined in this Document Type.

I've included this in Level 1 purely as an anchor point for default attributes. In Level 2 it should enable the ChildRule support.

Field Detail

### name

    protected java.lang.String name

  Element definition name.

### attributes

    protected NamedNodeMapImpl attributes

  Default attributes.

Constructor Detail

### ElementDefinitionImpl

    public ElementDefinitionImpl(CoreDocumentImpl ownerDocument,
                                 java.lang.String name)

  Factory constructor.

Method Detail

### getNodeType

    public short getNodeType()

  A short integer indicating what type of node this is. The named constants for this value are defined in the org.w3c.dom.Node interface.
  Overrides:
    getNodeType in class NodeImpl

### getNodeName

    public java.lang.String getNodeName()

  Returns the element definition name
  Overrides:
    getNodeName in class NodeImpl

### cloneNode

    public Node cloneNode(boolean deep)

  Replicate this object.
  Overrides:
    cloneNode in class ParentNode
  Tags copied from class: ChildNode
  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.

    `

### getAttributes

    public NamedNodeMap getAttributes()

  Query the attributes defined on this Element.

  In the base implementation this Map simply contains Attribute objects representing the defaults. In a more serious implementation, it would contain AttributeDefinitionImpl objects for all declared Attributes, indicating which are Default, DefaultFixed, Implicit and/or Required.

  Overrides:
    getAttributes in class NodeImpl
  Returns:
    org.w3c.dom.NamedNodeMap containing org.w3c.dom.Attribute
