Uses of NodeDef in org.eigenbase.xom

Subinterfaces of NodeDef in org.eigenbase.xom

Modifier and Type	Interface and Description
static interface	MetaDef.Content The Content class contains all entities which represent types of content which may appear within an Element.
static interface	MetaDef.Definition The Definition class represents a generic type of element definition.
static interface	MetaDef.FullDefinition The FullDefinition class represents a fully-specified definition that may include content.

Classes in org.eigenbase.xom that implement NodeDef

Modifier and Type	Class and Description
class	CdataDef A CdataDef represents a CDATA element.
class	CommentDef Comment element.
class	ElementDef ElementDef is the base class for all element definitions.
class	GenericDef A GenericDef is a ElementDef whose attributes and children are stored in collections, not generated members.
static class	MetaDef.Any The Any content is a special marker which allows an Element to contain any type of data.
static class	MetaDef.Array An Array is a set of multiple instances of Elements.
static class	MetaDef.Attribute The Attribute entity appears within any Element definition.
static class	MetaDef.CData The CData content is a special marker which allows an Element to contain a single CDATA section as its only content, yet still have attributes.
static class	MetaDef.Class A Class Definition defines a class of entities.
static class	MetaDef.Element An Element Definition defines a basic entity of the meta model.
static class	MetaDef.Import An Import as a special type of element that represents another element stored in an external model.
static class	MetaDef.Model Model is the top-level element for a model description.
static class	MetaDef.Object An Object is a single instance of an Element type.
static class	MetaDef.Plugin A Plugin in a special type of element whose content may be derived from a different model.
static class	MetaDef.StringElement A StringElement is a simple type of element which has no attributes and whose content is a single String (usually represented as a CDATA section).
class	TextDef A TextDef represents piece of textual data in an XML document.
class	WrapperElementDef WrapperElementDef is an ElementDef which retains the underlying XML DOMWrapper.

Methods in org.eigenbase.xom that return NodeDef

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
NodeDef[]	DOMElementParser.classArray(Class elemClass, int min, int max) This function retrieves a collection of elements which are subclasses of the given class, returning them as an array.
static NodeDef	ElementDef.constructElement(DOMWrapper wrapper, Class elemClass) constructElement is a helper function which builds the appropriate type of ElementDef from an XML Element.
static NodeDef	ElementDef.constructElement(DOMWrapper wrapper, Class enclosure, String prefix) constructElement is a helper function which builds the appropriate type of ElementDef from an XML Element.
NodeDef	DefWalker.expect(Class elemType) Returns the next node in the defs array, but only if it matches the provided class elemType.
NodeDef[]	DefWalker.expectArray(Class elemType) Returns a portion of the remaining nodes in the defs array as an array.
NodeDef[]	DOMElementParser.getArray(Class elemClass, int min, int max) This function retrieves a collection of elements which are subclasses of the given class, returning them as an array.
NodeDef[]	Any.getChildren()
NodeDef[]	GenericDef.getChildren()
NodeDef[]	NodeDef.getChildren() Returns the children of this node.
NodeDef[]	WrapperElementDef.getChildren()
NodeDef[]	TextDef.getChildren()
NodeDef[]	ElementDef.getChildren()
NodeDef	DOMElementParser.getElement(Class elementClass, boolean required) This function retrieves an Element from this parser, advancing the parser if the element is found.
protected static NodeDef[]	ElementDef.getMixedChildren_new(DOMWrapper _def, Class clazz, String prefix)
protected static NodeDef[]	ElementDef.getMixedChildren(DOMWrapper _def, Class clazz, String prefix)
NodeDef	DOMElementParser.requiredClass(Class classTemplate) This function retrieves a required Element of a specific class from this parser, advancing the parser after the read.
