public static class MetaDef.StringElement
extends ElementDef
implements MetaDef.Definition

Method Detail

getName

public String getName()

Description copied from interface: NodeDef

Returns the name of this node's tag.

Specified by:

getName in interface NodeDef

Overrides:

getName in class ElementDef

display

public void display(PrintWriter _out,
                    int _indent)

Description copied from interface: NodeDef

Outputs this node to any PrintWriter, in a formatted fashion with automatic indenting.

Specified by:

display in interface NodeDef

Parameters:

_out - the PrintWriter to which to write this NodeDef.

_indent - the indentation level for the printout.

displayXML

public void displayXML(XMLOutput _out,
                       int _indent)

Description copied from interface: NodeDef

Outputs this element definition in XML to any XMLOutput.

Specified by:

displayXML in interface NodeDef

Overrides:

displayXML in class ElementDef

Parameters:

_out - the XMLOutput class to display the XML

displayDiff

public boolean displayDiff(ElementDef _other,
                           PrintWriter _out,
                           int _indent)

Description copied from class: ElementDef

The displayDiff function compares this element definition against another, compiling a message containing all diffs. It is used internally by the equals(), diff(), and verifyEquals() functions.

Overrides:

displayDiff in class ElementDef

Parameters:

_other - the ElementDef to which to compare this element.

_out - a PrintWriter to which to display any discovered differences, or null if just doing an equality check (and no diff report is needed).

_indent - the current indentation level (used for nice display of diffs).

Returns:

true if this and other match exactly, false if not.
