Interface Attributes

  • All Known Implementing Classes:
    StAXReader.AttributesImpl, XmlTreeReader.AttributesAdapter

    public interface Attributes

    The Attributes interface is essentially a version of the org.xml.sax.Attributes interface modified to use the JAX-RPC QName class.

    Although namespace declarations can appear in the attribute list, the actual values of the local name and URI properties are implementation-specific.

    Applications that need to iterate through all the attributes can use the isNamespaceDeclaration(int) method to identify namespace declarations and skip them.

    Also, the URI property of an attribute will never be null. The value "" (empty string) is used for the URI of non-qualified attributes.

    • Method Detail

      • getLength

        int getLength()
        Return the number of attributes in the list.
      • isNamespaceDeclaration

        boolean isNamespaceDeclaration​(int index)
        Return true if the attribute at the given index is a namespace declaration.

        Implementations are encouraged to optimize this method by taking into account their internal representations of attributes.
