Class TextImpl

All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Cloneable, CharacterData, EventTarget, Node, NodeList, Text
Direct Known Subclasses:
CDATASectionImpl, DeferredTextImpl

public class TextImpl extends CharacterDataImpl implements CharacterData, Text
Text nodes hold the non-markup, non-Entity content of an Element or Attribute.

When a document is first made available to the DOM, there is only one Text object for each block of adjacent plain-text. Users (ie, applications) may create multiple adjacent Texts during editing -- see Node.normalize() for discussion.

Note that CDATASection is a subclass of Text. This is conceptually valid, since they're really just two different ways of quoting characters when they're written out as part of an XML stream.

Usage of this class is not supported. It may be altered or removed at any time.

    • 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.

    • getNodeName

      public String getNodeName()
      Returns the node name.

    • setIgnorableWhitespace

      public void setIgnorableWhitespace(boolean ignore)
      NON-DOM: Set whether this Text is ignorable whitespace.
    • isElementContentWhitespace

      public boolean isElementContentWhitespace()
      DOM L3 Core CR - Experimental Returns whether this text node contains element content whitespace, often abusively called "ignorable whitespace". The text node is determined to contain whitespace in element content during the load of the document or if validation occurs while using Document.normalizeDocument().
      Specified by:
      isElementContentWhitespace in interface Text
      Since:
      DOM Level 3
    • getWholeText

      public String getWholeText()
      DOM Level 3 WD - Experimental. Returns all text of Text nodes logically-adjacent text nodes to this node, concatenated in document order.
      Specified by:
      getWholeText in interface Text
      Since:
      DOM Level 3
    • insertTextContent

      protected void insertTextContent(StringBuffer buf) throws DOMException
      internal method taking a StringBuffer in parameter and inserts the text content at the start of the buffer
      Parameters:
      buf -
      Throws:
      DOMException
    • replaceWholeText

      public Text replaceWholeText(String content) throws DOMException
      Replaces the text of the current node and all logically-adjacent text nodes with the specified text. All logically-adjacent text nodes are removed including the current node unless it was the recipient of the replacement text.
      Specified by:
      replaceWholeText in interface Text
      Parameters:
      content - The content of the replacing Text node.
      Returns:
      text - The Text node created with the specified content.
      Throws:
      DOMException
      Since:
      DOM Level 3
    • isIgnorableWhitespace

      public boolean isIgnorableWhitespace()
      NON-DOM: Returns whether this Text is ignorable whitespace.
    • splitText

      public Text splitText(int offset) throws DOMException
      Break a text node into two sibling nodes. (Note that if the current node has no parent, they won't wind up as "siblings" -- they'll both be orphans.)
      Specified by:
      splitText in interface Text
      Parameters:
      offset - The offset at which to split. If offset is at the end of the available data, the second node will be empty.
      Returns:
      A reference to the new node (containing data after the offset point). The original node will contain data up to that point.
      Throws:
      DOMException
    • replaceData

      public void replaceData(String value)
      NON-DOM (used by DOMParser): Reset data for the node.
    • removeData

      public String removeData()
      NON-DOM (used by DOMParser: Sets data to empty string. Returns the value the data was set to.
