Method Detail

elementMatchesName

public static boolean elementMatchesName(TreeElement treeElement,
                                         String name)

Determines whether treeElement matches name. If name is a wildcard, it does. If the element’s name matches name (using equals), it does. If neither of those cases are true, a namespace prefix for treeElement, if one can be located, is prepended to treeElement’s name, and that is compared to name with equals.

Parameters:

treeElement - the TreeElement under examination

name - the name to be compared with treeElement’s name

Returns:

whether treeElement matches name
