#include <wx/xml/xml.h>
Represents a node in an XML document.
See wxXmlDocument.
Each node is named and depending on the node type it may also hold content or be given attributes.
The two most common node types are wxXML_ELEMENT_NODE
and wxXML_TEXT_NODE
. wxXML_ELEMENT_NODE
represents a pair of XML element tags, whilst wxXML_TEXT_NODE
represents the text value that can belong to the element.
A wxXML_ELEMENT_NODE
has a title, and optionally attributes, but does not have any content. A wxXML_TEXT_NODE
does not have a title or attributes but should normally have content.
For example: in the XML fragment <title>hi</title>
there is an element node with the name title
and a single text node child with the text hi
as content.
A wxXML_PI_NODE
represents a Processing Instruction (PI) node with the name parameter set as the target and the contents parameter set as the instructions. Note that whilst the PI instructions are often in the form of pseudo-attributes, these do not use the node's attribute member. It is the user's responsibility to code and decode the PI instruction text.
The wxXML_DOCUMENT_TYPE_NODE
is not implemented at this time. Instead, you should get and set the DOCTYPE values using the wxXmlDocument class.
If wxUSE_UNICODE
is 0, all strings are encoded in the encoding given to wxXmlDocument::Load (default is UTF-8).

Creates this XML node and inserts it into the XML tree as a child of the specified parent.
Once added, the XML tree takes ownership of this object and there is no need to delete it.
parent | The parent node to which append this node instance. If this argument is NULL this new node will be floating and it can be appended later to another one using the AddChild() or InsertChild() functions. Otherwise the child is added to the XML tree by this constructor and it shouldn't be done again. |
type | One of the wxXmlNodeType enumeration value. |
name | The name of the node. This is the string which appears between angular brackets. |
content | The content of the node. Only meaningful when type is wxXML_TEXT_NODE or wxXML_CDATA_SECTION_NODE . |
attrs | If not NULL, this wxXmlAttribute object and its eventual siblings are attached to the node. |
next | If not NULL, this node and its eventual siblings are attached to the node. |
lineNo | Number of line this node was present at in input file or -1. |
wxXmlNode::wxXmlNode | ( | wxXmlNodeType | type, |
const wxString & | name, | ||
const wxString & | content = wxEmptyString , |

int | lineNo = -1 |

A simplified version of the first constructor form, assuming a NULL parent.
type | One of the wxXmlNodeType enumeration value. |
name | The name of the node. This is the string which appears between angular brackets. |
content | The content of the node. Only meaningful when type is wxXML_TEXT_NODE or wxXML_CDATA_SECTION_NODE . |
lineNo | Number of line this node was present at in input file or -1. |
wxXmlNode::wxXmlNode | ( | const wxXmlNode & | node | ) |
Copy constructor.
Note that this does NOT copy siblings and parent pointer, i.e. GetParent() and GetNext() will return NULL after using copy ctor and are never unmodified by operator=(). On the other hand, it DOES copy children and attributes.
|
virtual |
The virtual destructor.
Deletes attached children and attributes.
Appends an attribute with given name and value to the list of attributes for this node.
|
virtual |
Appends given attribute to the list of attributes for this node.
|
virtual |
Adds node child as the last child of this node.
Once added, the XML tree takes ownership of this object and there is no need to delete it.
|
virtual |
Removes the first attributes which has the given name from the list of attributes for this node.
wxString wxXmlNode::GetAttribute | ( | const wxString & | attrName, |
const wxString & | defaultVal = wxEmptyString |
||
) | const |
Returns the value of the attribute named attrName if it does exist.
If it does not exist, the defaultVal is returned.
Returns true if a attribute named attrName could be found.
The value of that attribute is saved in value (which must not be NULL).
wxXmlAttribute* wxXmlNode::GetAttributes | ( | ) | const |
Return a pointer to the first attribute of this node.
wxXmlNode* wxXmlNode::GetChildren | ( | ) | const |
Returns the first child of this node.
To get a pointer to the second child of this node (if it does exist), use the GetNext() function on the returned value.
const wxString& wxXmlNode::GetContent | ( | ) | const |
Returns the content of this node.
Can be an empty string. Be aware that for nodes of type wxXML_ELEMENT_NODE
(the most used node type) the content is an empty string. See GetNodeContent() for more details.
int wxXmlNode::GetDepth | ( | wxXmlNode * | grandparent = NULL | ) | const |
Returns the number of nodes which separate this node from grandparent
.
This function searches only the parents of this node until it finds grandparent or the NULL node (which is the parent of non-linked nodes or the parent of a wxXmlDocument's root element node).
int wxXmlNode::GetLineNumber | ( | ) | const |
Returns line number of the node in the input XML file or -1
if it is unknown.
const wxString& wxXmlNode::GetName | ( | ) | const |
Returns the name of this node.
Can be an empty string (e.g. for nodes of type wxXML_TEXT_NODE
or wxXML_CDATA_SECTION_NODE
).
wxXmlNode* wxXmlNode::GetNext | ( | ) | const |
Returns a pointer to the sibling of this node or NULL if there are no siblings.
bool wxXmlNode::GetNoConversion | ( | ) | const |
Returns a flag indicating whether encoding conversion is necessary when saving.
The default is false.
You can improve saving efficiency considerably by setting this value.
wxString wxXmlNode::GetNodeContent | ( | ) | const |
Returns the content of the first child node of type wxXML_TEXT_NODE
or wxXML_CDATA_SECTION_NODE
.
This function is very useful since the XML snippet "tagnametagcontent/tagname"
is represented by expat with the following tag tree:
or eventually:
An empty string is returned if the node has no children of type wxXML_TEXT_NODE
or wxXML_CDATA_SECTION_NODE
, or if the content of the first child of such types is empty.
wxXmlNode* wxXmlNode::GetParent | ( | ) | const |
Returns a pointer to the parent of this node or NULL if this node has no parent.
wxXmlNodeType wxXmlNode::GetType | ( | ) | const |
Returns the type of this node.
bool wxXmlNode::HasAttribute | ( | const wxString & | attrName | ) | const |
Returns true if this node has a attribute named attrName.
Inserts the child node immediately before followingNode in the children list.
Once inserted, the XML tree takes ownership of the new child and there is no need to delete it.
Inserts the child node immediately after precedingNode in the children list.
Once inserted, the XML tree takes ownership of the new child and there is no need to delete it.
child | The child to insert. |
precedingNode | The node to insert child after. As a special case, this can be NULL if this node has no children yet – in that case, child will become this node's only child node. |
bool wxXmlNode::IsWhitespaceOnly | ( | ) | const |
Returns true if the content of this node is a string containing only whitespaces (spaces, tabs, new lines, etc).
Note that this function is locale-independent since the parsing of XML documents must always produce the exact same tree regardless of the locale it runs under.
|
virtual |
Removes the given node from the children list.
Returns true if the node was found and removed or false if the node could not be found. Note that the caller is responsible for deleting the removed node in order to avoid memory leaks.
void wxXmlNode::SetAttributes | ( | wxXmlAttribute * | attr | ) |
Sets as first attribute the given wxXmlAttribute object.
The caller is responsible for deleting any previously present attributes attached to this node.
void wxXmlNode::SetChildren | ( | wxXmlNode * | child | ) |

Sets as sibling the given node.
The caller is responsible for deleting any previously present sibling node.
void wxXmlNode::SetNoConversion | ( | bool | noconversion | ) |
Sets a flag to indicate whether encoding conversion is necessary when saving.
The default is false.
You can improve saving efficiency considerably by setting this value.
void wxXmlNode::SetParent | ( | wxXmlNode * | parent | ) |
