Detailed Description

The QDomNode class is the base class for all the nodes in a DOM tree. Many functions in the DOM return a QDomNode. A QDomNode can be null, much like a null pointer. Creating a copy of a null node results in another null node. It is not possible to modify a null node, but it is possible to assign another, possibly non-null node to it. In this case, the copy of the null node will remain null. You can check if a QDomNode is null by calling isNull(). The empty constructor of a QDomNode (or any of the derived classes) creates a null node.

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().

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().

Using Nodes

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(). To find out if a node has children use hasChildNodes() and to get a list of all of a node's children use childNodes().

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(). The document to which the node belongs is returned by ownerDocument(). Adjacent QDomText nodes can be merged into a single node with normalize(). QDomElement nodes have attributes which can be retrieved with attributes().

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().

You can write the XML representation of the node to a text stream with save().

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.

QDomDocument d;
d.setContent(someXML);
QDomNode n = d.firstChild();
 
while (! n.isNull()) {
    if (n.isElement()) {
       QDomElement e = n.toElement();
       cout << "Element name: " << e.tagName() << endl;
       break;
    }
 
    n = n.nextSibling();
}

For further information about the Document Object Model refer to Level 1 and Level 2 Core.

For a more general introduction of the DOM implementation refer to the QDomDocument documentation.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

QDomNode::QDomNode ( )

Constructs a null node.

QDomNode::QDomNode ( const QDomNode & other )

Copy constructs a new QDomNode from other.

QDomNode::~QDomNode ( )

Destroys the object and frees its resources.

Method Documentation

QDomNode QDomNode::appendChild ( const QDomNode & newChild )

Appends newChild as the node's last child.

If newChild is the child of another node, it is reparented to this node. If newChild is a child of this node, then its position in the list of children is changed.

If newChild is a QDomDocumentFragment, then the children of the fragment are removed from the fragment and appended.

If newChild is a QDomElement and this node is a QDomDocument that already has an element node as a child, newChild is not added as a child and a null node is returned.

Returns a new reference to newChild on success or a null node on failure.

Calling this function on a null node(created, for example, with the default constructor) does nothing and returns a null node.

The DOM specification disallow inserting attribute nodes, but for historical reasons, QDom accepts them anyway.

See also: insertBefore(), insertAfter(), replaceChild(), removeChild()

QDomNamedNodeMap QDomNode::attributes ( ) const

Returns a named node map of all attributes. Attributes are only provided for QDomElements.

Changing the attributes in the map will also change the attributes of this QDomNode.

QDomNodeList QDomNode::childNodes ( ) const

Returns a list of all direct child nodes.

Most often you will call this function on a QDomElement object.

For example, if the XML document looks like this:

<body>
<h1>Heading</h1>
<p>Hello <b>you</b></p>
</body>

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.

The nodes in the list are not copied; so changing the nodes in the list will also change the children of this node.

See also: firstChild(), lastChild()

void QDomNode::clear ( )

Converts the node into a null node; if it was not a null node before, its type and contents are deleted.

See also: isNull()

QDomNode QDomNode::cloneNode ( bool deep = true ) const

Creates a deep (not shallow) copy of the QDomNode.

If deep is true, then the cloning is done recursively which means that all the node's children are deep copied too. If deep is false only the node itself is copied and the copy will have no child nodes.

int QDomNode::columnNumber ( ) const

For nodes created by QDomDocument::setContent(), this function returns the column number in the XML document where the node was parsed. Otherwise, -1 is returned.

See also: lineNumber(), QDomDocument::setContent()

QDomNode QDomNode::firstChild ( ) const

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.

See also: lastChild(), childNodes()

QDomElement QDomNode::firstChildElement ( const QString & tagName = QString() ) const

Returns the first child element with tag name tagName if tagName is non-empty, otherwise returns the first child element. Returns a null element if no such child exists.

See also: lastChildElement(), previousSiblingElement(), nextSiblingElement()

bool QDomNode::hasAttributes ( ) const

Returns true if the node has attributes, otherwise returns false.

See also: attributes()

bool QDomNode::hasChildNodes ( ) const

Returns true if the node has one or more children, otherwise returns false.

QDomNode QDomNode::insertAfter	(	const QDomNode &	newChild,
		const QDomNode &	refChild
	)

Inserts the node newChild after the child node refChild. refChild must be a direct child of this node. If refChild is null then newChild is appended as this node's last child.

If newChild is the child of another node, it is reparented to this node. If newChild is a child of this node, then its position in the list of children is changed.

If newChild is a QDomDocumentFragment, then the children of the fragment are removed from the fragment and inserted after refChild.

Returns a new reference to newChild on success or a null node on failure.

The DOM specification disallow inserting attribute nodes, but due to historical reasons QDom accept them nevertheless.

See also: insertBefore(), replaceChild(), removeChild(), appendChild()

QDomNode QDomNode::insertBefore	(	const QDomNode &	newChild,
		const QDomNode &	refChild
	)

Inserts the node newChild before the child node refChild. refChild must be a direct child of this node. If refChild is null then newChild is inserted as the node's first child.

If newChild is the child of another node, it is reparented to this node. If newChild is a child of this node, then its position in the list of children is changed.

If newChild is a QDomDocumentFragment, then the children of the fragment are removed from the fragment and inserted before refChild.

Returns a new reference to newChild on success or a null node on failure.

The DOM specification disallow inserting attribute nodes, but due to historical reasons QDom accept them nevertheless.

See also: insertAfter(), replaceChild(), removeChild(), appendChild()

bool QDomNode::isAttr ( ) const

See also: columnNumber(), QDomDocument::setContent()

QString QDomNode::localName ( ) const

If the node uses namespaces, this function returns the local name of the node, otherwise it returns an empty string.

Only nodes of type ElementNode or AttributeNode can have namespaces. A namespace must have been specified at creation time; it is not possible to add a namespace afterwards.

QDomDocument::createAttributeNS()

See also: prefix(), namespaceURI(), QDomDocument::createElementNS()

QDomNode QDomNode::namedItem ( const QString & name ) const

Returns the first direct child node for which nodeName() equals name.

If no such direct child exists, a null node is returned.

See also: nodeName()

QString QDomNode::namespaceURI ( ) const

Returns the namespace URI of this node or an empty string if the node has no namespace URI.

Only nodes of type ElementNode or AttributeNode can have namespaces. A namespace URI must be specified at creation time and can not be changed later.

QDomDocument::createAttributeNS()

See also: prefix(), localName(), QDomDocument::createElementNS()

QDomNode QDomNode::nextSibling ( ) const

Returns the next sibling in the document tree. Changing the returned node will also change the node in the document tree.

If you have XML like this:

<h1>Heading</h1>
<p>The text...</p>
<h2>Next heading</h2>

and this QDomNode represents the <p> tag, nextSibling() will return the node representing the <h2> tag.

See also: previousSibling()

QDomElement QDomNode::nextSiblingElement ( const QString & tagName = QString() ) const

Returns the next sibling element with tag name tagName if tagName is non-empty, otherwise returns any next sibling element. Returns a null element if no such sibling exists.

See also: firstChildElement(), previousSiblingElement(), lastChildElement()

QString QDomNode::nodeName ( ) const

Returns the name of the node.

The meaning of the name depends on the subclass:

Name	Meaning
QDomAttr	The name of the attribute
QDomCDATASection	The string "#cdata-section"
QDomComment	The string "#comment"
QDomDocument	The string "#document"
QDomDocumentFragment	The string "#document-fragment"
QDomDocumentType	The name of the document type
QDomElement	The tag name
QDomEntity	The name of the entity
QDomEntityReference	The name of the referenced entity
QDomNotation	The name of the notation
QDomProcessingInstruction	The target of the processing instruction
QDomText	The string "#text"

Note: This function does not take the presence of namespaces into account when processing the names of element and attribute nodes. As a result, the returned name can contain any namespace prefix that may be present. To obtain the node name of an element or attribute, use localName(); to obtain the namespace prefix, use namespaceURI().

See also: nodeValue()

NodeType QDomNode::nodeType ( ) const

Returns the type of the node.

See also: toAttr(), toCDATASection(), toDocumentFragment(), toDocument(), toDocumentType(), toElement(), toEntityReference(), toText(), toEntity(), toNotation(), toProcessingInstruction(), toCharacterData(), toComment()

QString QDomNode::nodeValue ( ) const

Returns the value of the node.

The meaning of the value depends on the subclass:

Name	Meaning
QDomAttr	The attribute value
QDomCDATASection	The content of the CDATA section
QDomComment	The comment
QDomProcessingInstruction	The data of the processing instruction
QDomText	The text

All the other subclasses do not have a node value and will return an empty string.

See also: setNodeValue(), nodeName()

void QDomNode::normalize ( )

Calling normalize() on an element converts all its children into a standard form. This means that adjacent QDomText objects will be merged into a single text object (QDomCDATASection nodes are not merged).

bool QDomNode::operator!= ( const QDomNode & n ) const

Returns true if n and this DOM node are not equal, otherwise returns false.

QDomNode & QDomNode::operator= ( const QDomNode & other )

Copy assigns from other and returns a reference to this object.

bool QDomNode::operator== ( const QDomNode & n ) const

Returns true if n and this DOM node are equal, otherwise returns false. Any instance of QDomNode acts as a reference to an underlying data structure in QDomDocument. The test for equality checks if the two references point to the same underlying node.

QDomDocument document;
QDomElement element1 = document.documentElement();
QDomElement element2 = element1;

The two nodes (QDomElement is a QDomNode subclass) both refer to the document's root element, and element1 == element2 will return true. On the other hand:

QDomElement element3 = document.createElement("MyElement");

QDomElement element4 = document.createElement("MyElement");

Even though both nodes are empty elements carrying the same name, element3 == element4 will return false because they refer to two different nodes in the underlying data structure.

QDomDocument QDomNode::ownerDocument ( ) const

Returns the document to which this node belongs.

QDomNode QDomNode::parentNode ( ) const

Returns the parent node. If this node has no parent, a null node is returned (i.e. a node for which isNull() returns true).

QString QDomNode::prefix ( ) const

Returns the namespace prefix of the node or an empty string if the node has no namespace prefix.

Only nodes of type ElementNode or AttributeNode can have namespaces. A namespace prefix must be specified at creation time. If a node was created with a namespace prefix, you can change it later with setPrefix().

If you create an element or attribute with QDomDocument::createElement() or QDomDocument::createAttribute(), the prefix will be an empty string. If you use QDomDocument::createElementNS() or QDomDocument::createAttributeNS() instead, the prefix will not be an empty string; but it might be an empty string if the name does not have a prefix.

QDomDocument::createElementNS() QDomDocument::createAttributeNS()

See also: setPrefix(), localName(), namespaceURI()

QDomNode QDomNode::previousSibling ( ) const

Returns the previous sibling in the document tree. Changing the returned node will also change the node in the document tree.

For example, if you have XML like this:

<h1>Heading</h1>
<p>The text...</p>
<h2>Next heading</h2>

and this QDomNode represents the <p> tag, previousSibling() will return the node representing the <h1> tag.

See also: nextSibling()

QDomElement QDomNode::previousSiblingElement ( const QString & tagName = QString() ) const

Returns the previous sibling element with tag name tagName if tagName is non-empty, otherwise returns any previous sibling element. Returns a null element if no such sibling exists.

See also: firstChildElement(), nextSiblingElement(), lastChildElement()

QDomNode QDomNode::removeChild ( const QDomNode & oldChild )

Removes oldChild from the list of children. oldChild must be a direct child of this node.

Returns a new reference to oldChild on success or a null node on failure.

See also: insertBefore(), insertAfter(), replaceChild(), appendChild()

QDomNode QDomNode::replaceChild	(	const QDomNode &	newChild,
		const QDomNode &	oldChild
	)

Replaces oldChild with newChild. oldChild must be a direct child of this node.

If newChild is the child of another node, it is reparented to this node. If newChild is a child of this node, then its position in the list of children is changed.

If newChild is a QDomDocumentFragment, then oldChild is replaced by all of the children of the fragment.

Returns a new reference to oldChild on success or a null node an failure.

See also: insertBefore(), insertAfter(), removeChild(), appendChild()

void QDomNode::save	(	QTextStream &	stream,
		int	indent,
		QDomNode::EncodingPolicy	policy = `QDomNode::EncodingFromDocument`
	)		const

Writes the XML representation of the node and all its children to the stream and uses indent as the amount of space to indent the node.

If this node is a document node, the encoding of stream is set by treating a processing instruction by name "xml" as an XML declaration, if such a one exists, and otherwise defaults to UTF-8. XML declarations are not processing instructions, but this behavior exists for historical reasons. If this node is not a document node, the text stream's encoding is used.

If the document contains invalid XML characters or characters that can not be encoded in the given encoding, the result and behavior is undefined.

void QDomNode::setNodeValue ( const QString & value )

Sets the node's value to value.

See also: nodeValue()

void QDomNode::setPrefix ( const QString & prefix )

If the node has a namespace prefix, this method changes the namespace prefix of the node to prefix. Otherwise this method does nothing. Only nodes of type ElementNode or AttributeNode can have namespaces. A namespace prefix must have been specified at creation time. It is not possible to add a namespace prefix afterwards.

See also: prefix(), localName(), namespaceURI(), QDomDocument::createElementNS() QDomDocument::createAttributeNS()
