return a QDomNode. +.PP +You can find out the type of a node using isAttr(), isCDATASection(), isDocumentFragment(), isDocument(), isDocumentType(), isElement(), isEntityReference(), isText(), isEntity(), isNotation(), isProcessingInstruction(), isCharacterData() and isComment(). +.PP +A QDomNode can be converted into one of its subclasses using toAttr(), toCDATASection(), toDocumentFragment(), toDocument(), toDocumentType(), toElement(), toEntityReference(), toText(), toEntity(), toNotation(), toProcessingInstruction(), toCharacterData() or toComment(). You can convert a node to a null node with clear(). +.PP +Copies of the QDomNode class share their data using explicit sharing. This means that modifying one node will change all copies. This is especially useful in combination with functions which return a QDomNode, e.g. firstChild(). You can make an independent (deep) copy of the node with cloneNode(). +.PP +Nodes are inserted with insertBefore(), insertAfter() or appendChild(). You can replace one node with another using replaceChild() and remove a node with removeChild(). +.PP +To traverse nodes use firstChild() to get a node's first child (if any), and nextSibling() to traverse. QDomNode also provides lastChild(), previousSibling() and parentNode(). To find the first child node with a particular node name use namedItem(). +.PP +To find out if a node has children use hasChildNodes() and to get a list of all of a node's children use childNodes(). +.PP +The node's name and value (the meaning of which varies depending on its type) is returned by nodeName() and nodeValue() respectively. The node's type is returned by nodeType(). The node's value can be set with setNodeValue(). +.PP +The document to which the node belongs is returned by ownerDocument(). +.PP +Adjacent QDomText nodes can be merged into a single node with normalize(). +.PP +QDomElement nodes have attributes which can be retrieved with attributes(). +.PP +QDomElement and QDomAttr nodes can have namespaces which can be retrieved with namespaceURI(). Their local name is retrieved with localName(), and their prefix with prefix(). The prefix can be set with setPrefix(). +.PP +You can write the XML representation of the node to a text stream with save(). +.PP +The following example looks for the first element in an XML document and prints the names of all the elements that are its direct children. +.PP +.nf +.br + QDomDocument d; +.br + d.setContent( someXML ); +.br + QDomNode n = d.firstChild(); +.br + while ( !n.isNull() ) { +.br + if ( n.isElement() ) { +.br + QDomElement e = n.toElement(); +.br + cout << "Element name: " << e.tagName() << endl; +.br + break; +.br + } +.br + n = n.nextSibling(); +.br + } +.br +.fi +.PP +For further information about the Document Object Model see http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-DOM-Level-1/ and http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Core/. For a more general introduction of the DOM implementation see the QDomDocument documentation. +.PP +See also XML. +.SS "Member Type Documentation" +.SH "QDomNode::NodeType" +This enum defines the type of the node: +.TP +\fCQDomNode::ElementNode\fR +.TP +\fCQDomNode::AttributeNode\fR +.TP +\fCQDomNode::TextNode\fR +.TP +\fCQDomNode::CDATASectionNode\fR +.TP +\fCQDomNode::EntityReferenceNode\fR +.TP +\fCQDomNode::EntityNode\fR +.TP +\fCQDomNode::ProcessingInstructionNode\fR +.TP +\fCQDomNode::CommentNode\fR +.TP +\fCQDomNode::DocumentNode\fR +.TP +\fCQDomNode::DocumentTypeNode\fR +.TP +\fCQDomNode::DocumentFragmentNode\fR +.TP +\fCQDomNode::NotationNode\fR +.TP +\fCQDomNode::BaseNode\fR - A QDomNode object, i.e. not a QDomNode subclass. +.TP +\fCQDomNode::CharacterDataNode\fR +.SH MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION +.SH "QDomNode::QDomNode ()" +Constructs a null node. +.SH "QDomNode::QDomNode ( const QDomNode & n )" +Constructs a copy of \fIn\fR. +.PP +The data of the copy is shared (shallow copy): modifying one node will also change the other. If you want to make a deep copy, use cloneNode(). +.SH "QDomNode::~QDomNode ()\fC [virtual]\fR" +Destroys the object and frees its resources. +.SH "QDomNode QDomNode::appendChild ( const QDomNode & newChild )\fC [virtual]\fR" +Appends \fInewChild\fR as the node's last child. +.PP +If \fInewChild\fR is the child of another node, it is reparented to this node. If \fInewChild\fR is a child of this node, then its position in the list of children is changed. +.PP +If \fInewChild\fR is a QDomDocumentFragment, then the children of the fragment are removed from the fragment and appended. +.PP +Returns a new reference to \fInewChild\fR. +.PP +See also insertBefore(), insertAfter(), replaceChild(), and removeChild(). +.SH "QDomNamedNodeMap QDomNode::attributes () const\fC [virtual]\fR" +Returns a named node map of all attributes. Attributes are only provided for QDomElements. +.PP +Changing the attributes in the map will also change the attributes of this QDomNode. +.PP +Reimplemented in QDomElement. +.SH "QDomNodeList QDomNode::childNodes () const\fC [virtual]\fR" +Returns a list of all direct child nodes. +.PP +Most often you will call this function on a QDomElement object. +.PP +For example, if the XML document looks like this: +.PP +.nf +.br + <body> +.br + <h1>Heading</h1> +.br + <p>Hello <b>you</b></p> +.br + </body> +.br +.fi +Then the list of child nodes for the "body"-element will contain the node created by the <h1> tag and the node created by the <p> tag. +.PP +The nodes in the list are not copied; so changing the nodes in the list will also change the children of this node. +.PP +See also firstChild() and lastChild(). +.SH "void QDomNode::clear ()" +Converts the node into a null node; if it was not a null node before, its type and contents are deleted. +.PP +See also isNull(). +.SH "QDomNode QDomNode::cloneNode ( bool deep = TRUE ) const\fC [virtual]\fR" +Creates a deep (not shallow) copy of the QDomNode. +.PP +If \fIdeep\fR is TRUE, then the cloning is done recursively which means that all the node's children are deep copied too. If \fIdeep\fR is FALSE only the node itself is copied and the copy will have no child nodes. +.SH "QDomNode QDomNode::firstChild () const\fC [virtual]\fR" +Returns the first child of the node. If there is no child node, a null node is returned. Changing the returned node will also change the node in the document tree. +.PP +See also lastChild() and childNodes(). +.PP +Example: xml/outliner/outlinetree.cpp. +.SH "bool QDomNode::hasAttributes () const\fC [virtual]\fR" +Returns TRUE if the node has attributes; otherwise returns FALSE. +.PP +See also attributes(). +.SH "bool QDomNode::hasChildNodes () const\fC [virtual]\fR" +Returns TRUE if the node has one or more children; otherwise returns FALSE. +.SH "QDomNode QDomNode::insertAfter ( const QDomNode & newChild, const QDomNode & refChild )\fC [virtual]\fR" +Inserts the node \fInewChild\fR after the child node \fIrefChild\fR. \fIrefChild\fR must be a direct child of this node. If \fIrefChild\fR is null then \fInewChild\fR is appended as this node's last child. +.PP +If \fInewChild\fR is the child of another node, it is reparented to this node. If \fInewChild\fR is a child of this node, then its position in the list of children is changed. +.PP +If \fInewChild\fR is a QDomDocumentFragment, then the children of the fragment are removed from the fragment and inserted after \fIrefChild\fR. +.PP +Returns a new reference to \fInewChild\fR on success or a null node on failure. +.PP +See also insertBefore(), replaceChild(), removeChild(), and appendChild(). +.SH "QDomNode QDomNode::insertBefore ( const QDomNode & newChild, const QDomNode & refChild )\fC [virtual]\fR" +Inserts the node \fInewChild\fR before the child node \fIrefChild\fR. \fIrefChild\fR must be a direct child of this node. If \fIrefChild\fR is null then \fInewChild\fR is inserted as the node's first child. +.PP +If \fInewChild\fR is the child of another node, it is reparented to this node. If \fInewChild\fR is a child of this node, then its position in the list of children is changed. +.PP +If \fInewChild\fR is a QDomDocumentFragment, then the children of the fragment are removed from the fragment and inserted before \fIrefChild\fR. +.PP +Returns a new reference to \fInewChild\fR on success or a null node on failure. +.PP +See also insertAfter(), replaceChild(), removeChild(), and appendChild(). +.SH "bool QDomNode::isAttr () const\fC [virtual]\fR" +Returns TRUE if the node is an attribute;
