Class DomComment

java.lang.Object
  extended bygnu.xml.dom.DomNode
      extended bygnu.xml.dom.DomCharacterData
          extended bygnu.xml.dom.DomComment
All Implemented Interfaces:
CharacterData, Cloneable, Comment, DocumentEvent, EventTarget, Node, NodeList

public class DomComment
extends DomCharacterData
implements Comment

"Comment" implementation. Comments hold data intended for direct consumption by people; programs should only use ProcessingInstruction nodes. Note that since SAX makes comment reporting optional, XML systems that rely on comments (such as by using this class) will often lose those comments at some point in the processing pipeline.

Constructor Detail

DomComment

protected DomComment(Document owner,
                     String value)
Constructs a comment node associated with the specified document and holding the specified data.

This constructor should only be invoked by a Document as part of its createComment functionality, or through a subclass which is similarly used in a "Sub-DOM" style layer.

Method Detail

getNodeName

public final String getNodeName()
DOM L1 Returns the string "#comment".

Specified by:
getNodeName in interface Node

getNodeType

public final short getNodeType()
DOM L1 Returns the constant COMMENT_NODE.

Specified by:
getNodeType in interface Node
