Direct Known Subclasses:

DocumentImpl

public class CoreDocumentImpl

extends ParentNode

implements Document

The Document interface represents the entire HTML or XML document. Conceptually, it is the root of the document tree, and provides the primary access to the document's data.

Since elements, text nodes, comments, processing instructions, etc. cannot exist outside the context of a Document, the Document interface also contains the factory methods needed to create these objects. The Node objects created have a ownerDocument attribute which associates them with the Document within whose context they were created.

The CoreDocumentImpl class only implements the DOM Core. Additional modules are supported by the more complete DocumentImpl subclass.

Note: When any node in the document is serialized, the entire document is serialized along with it.

Since:

PR-DOM-Level-1-19980818.

changes

protected int changes

Number of alterations made to this document since its creation. Serves as a "dirty bit" so that live objects such as NodeList can recognize when an alteration has been made and discard its cached state information.

Any method that alters the tree structure MUST cause or be accompanied by a call to changed(), to inform it that any outstanding NodeLists may have to be updated.

(Required because NodeList is simultaneously "live" and integer- indexed -- a bad decision in the DOM's design.)

Note that changes which do not affect the tree's structure -- changing the node's name, for example -- do _not_ have to call changed().

Alternative implementation would be to use a cryptographic Digest value rather than a count. This would have the advantage that "harmless" changes (those producing equal() trees) would not force NodeList to resynchronize. Disadvantage is that it's slightly more prone to "false negatives", though that's the difference between "wildly unlikely" and "absurdly unlikely". IF we start maintaining digests, we should consider taking advantage of them. Note: This used to be done a node basis, so that we knew what subtree changed. But since only DeepNodeList really use this today, the gain appears to be really small compared to the cost of having an int on every (parent) node plus having to walk up the tree all the way to the root to mark the branch as changed everytime a node is changed. So we now have a single counter global to the document. It means that some objects may flush their cache more often than necessary, but this makes nodes smaller and only the document needs to be marked as changed.

Constructor Detail

CoreDocumentImpl

public CoreDocumentImpl()

NON-DOM: Actually creating a Document is outside the DOM's spec, since it has to operate in terms of a particular implementation.

CoreDocumentImpl

public CoreDocumentImpl(boolean grammarAccess)

Constructor.

CoreDocumentImpl

public CoreDocumentImpl(DocumentType doctype)

For DOM2 support. The createDocument factory method is in DOMImplementation.

CoreDocumentImpl

public CoreDocumentImpl(DocumentType doctype,
                        boolean grammarAccess)

For DOM2 support.

Method Detail

getOwnerDocument

public final Document getOwnerDocument()

Description copied from interface: Node

The Document object associated with this node. This is also the Document object used to create new nodes. When this node is a Document or a DocumentType which is not used with any Document yet, this is null.

Specified by:

getOwnerDocument in interface Node

Overrides:

getOwnerDocument in class ParentNode

getNodeType

public short getNodeType()

Returns the node type.

Specified by:

getNodeType in interface Node

Overrides:

getNodeType in class NodeImpl

getNodeName

public java.lang.String getNodeName()

Returns the node name.

Specified by:

getNodeName in interface Node

Overrides:

getNodeName in class NodeImpl

cloneNode

public Node cloneNode(boolean deep)

Deep-clone a document, including fixing ownerDoc for the cloned children. Note that this requires bypassing the WRONG_DOCUMENT_ERR protection. I've chosen to implement it by calling importNode which is DOM Level 2.

Specified by:

cloneNode in interface Node

Overrides:

cloneNode in class ParentNode

Parameters:

deep - boolean, iff true replicate children

Returns:

org.w3c.dom.Node

cloneNode

protected void cloneNode(CoreDocumentImpl newdoc,
                         boolean deep)

internal method to share code with subclass

insertBefore

public Node insertBefore(Node newChild,
                         Node refChild)
                  throws DOMException

Since a Document may contain at most one top-level Element child, and at most one DocumentType declaraction, we need to subclass our add-children methods to implement this constraint. Since appendChild() is implemented as insertBefore(,null), altering the latter fixes both.

While I'm doing so, I've taken advantage of the opportunity to cache documentElement and docType so we don't have to search for them. REVISIT: According to the spec it is not allowed to alter neither the document element nor the document type in any way

Specified by:

insertBefore in interface Node

Overrides:

insertBefore in class ParentNode

Following copied from interface: org.w3c.dom.Node

Parameters:

newChildThe - node to insert.

refChildThe - reference node, i.e., the node before which the new node must be inserted.

Returns:

The node being inserted.

Throws:

DOMException - HIERARCHY_REQUEST_ERR: Raised if this node is of a type that does not allow children of the type of the newChild node, or if the node to insert is one of this node's ancestors.
WRONG_DOCUMENT_ERR: Raised if newChild was created from a different document than the one that created this node.
NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly or if the parent of the node being inserted is readonly.
NOT_FOUND_ERR: Raised if refChild is not a child of this node.

removeChild

public Node removeChild(Node oldChild)
                 throws DOMException

Since insertBefore caches the docElement (and, currently, docType), removeChild has to know how to undo the cache REVISIT: According to the spec it is not allowed to alter neither the document element nor the document type in any way

Specified by:

removeChild in interface Node

Overrides:

removeChild in class ParentNode

Following copied from interface: org.w3c.dom.Node

Parameters:

oldChildThe - node being removed.

Returns:

The node removed.

Throws:

DOMException - NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node is readonly.
NOT_FOUND_ERR: Raised if oldChild is not a child of this node.

replaceChild

public Node replaceChild(Node newChild,
                         Node oldChild)
                  throws DOMException

Since we cache the docElement (and, currently, docType), replaceChild has to update the cache REVISIT: According to the spec it is not allowed to alter neither the document element nor the document type in any way

Specified by:

replaceChild in interface Node

Overrides:

replaceChild in class ParentNode

Following copied from interface: org.w3c.dom.Node

Parameters:

newChildThe - new node to put in the child list.

oldChildThe - node being replaced in the list.

Returns:

The node replaced.

Throws:

DOMException - HIERARCHY_REQUEST_ERR: Raised if this node is of a type that does not allow children of the type of the newChild node, or if the node to put in is one of this node's ancestors.
WRONG_DOCUMENT_ERR: Raised if newChild was created from a different document than the one that created this node.
NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR: Raised if this node or the parent of the new node is readonly.
NOT_FOUND_ERR: Raised if oldChild is not a child of this node.

public Node importNode(Node source,
                       boolean deep)
                throws DOMException

Copies a node from another document to this document. The new nodes are created using this document's factory methods and are populated with the data from the source's accessor methods defined by the DOM interfaces. Its behavior is otherwise similar to that of cloneNode.

According to the DOM specifications, document nodes cannot be imported and a NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR exception is thrown if attempted.

Specified by:

importNode in interface Document

Following copied from interface: org.w3c.dom.Document

Parameters:

importedNodeThe - node to import.

deepIf - true, recursively import the subtree under the specified node; if false, import only the node itself, as explained above. This has no effect on Attr , EntityReference, and Notation nodes.

Returns:

The imported node that belongs to this Document.

isXMLName

public static boolean isXMLName(java.lang.String s)

Check the string against XML's definition of acceptable names for elements and attributes and so on using the XMLCharacterProperties utility class

isKidOK

protected boolean isKidOK(Node parent,
                          Node child)

Uses the kidOK lookup table to check whether the proposed tree structure is legal.

changed

protected void changed()

Denotes that this node has changed.

Overrides:

changed in class NodeImpl

changes in class NodeImpl

setUserData

protected void setUserData(NodeImpl n,
                           java.lang.Object data)

Store user data related to a given node This is a place where we could use weak references! Indeed, the node here won't be GC'ed as long as some user data is attached to it, since the userData table will have a reference to the node.

getUserData

protected java.lang.Object getUserData(NodeImpl n)

Retreive user data related to a given node

addEventListener
