Interface NodeEditAS

All Known Subinterfaces:

CharacterDataEditAS, DocumentEditAS, ElementEditAS

Deprecated. This interface extends a Node from with additional methods for guided document editing. The expectation is that an instance of the DOMImplementationAS interface can be obtained by using binding-specific casting methods on an instance of the DOMImplementation interface when the DOM implementation supports the feature "AS-DOC".

See also the Document Object Model (DOM) Level 3 Abstract Schemas and Load and Save Specification.

public interface NodeEditAS

Field Summary

static short	NS_WF_CHECK Deprecated. Check for namespace well-formedness includes WF_CHECK.
static short	PARTIAL_VALIDITY_CHECK Deprecated. Checks for whether this node is partially valid.
static short	STRICT_VALIDITY_CHECK Deprecated. Checks for strict validity of the node with respect to active AS which by definition includes NS_WF_CHECK.
static short	WF_CHECK Deprecated. Check for well-formedness of this node.

Method Summary

boolean	canAppendChild(Node newChild) Deprecated. Has the same arguments as AppendChild.
boolean	canInsertBefore(Node newChild, Node refChild) Deprecated. Determines whether the insertBefore operation from the Node interface would make this document invalid with respect to the currently active AS.
boolean	canRemoveChild(Node oldChild) Deprecated. Has the same arguments as RemoveChild.
boolean	canReplaceChild(Node newChild, Node oldChild) Deprecated. Has the same arguments as ReplaceChild.
boolean	isNodeValid(boolean deep, short wFValidityCheckLevel) Deprecated. Determines if the Node is valid relative to currently active AS.

Method Detail

canInsertBefore

boolean canInsertBefore(Node newChild,
                        Node refChild)

Deprecated.

Determines whether the insertBefore operation from the Node interface would make this document invalid with respect to the currently active AS. Describe "valid" when referring to partially completed documents.

Parameters:

newChild - Node to be inserted.

refChild - Reference Node.

Returns:

true if no reason it can't be done; false if it can't be done.

canRemoveChild

boolean canRemoveChild(Node oldChild)

Deprecated.

Has the same arguments as RemoveChild.

Parameters:

oldChild - Node to be removed.

Returns:

true if no reason it can't be done; false if it can't be done.

canReplaceChild

boolean canReplaceChild(Node newChild,
                        Node oldChild)

Deprecated.

Has the same arguments as ReplaceChild.

Parameters:

newChild - New Node.

oldChild - Node to be replaced.

Returns:

true if no reason it can't be done; false if it can't be done.

canAppendChild

boolean canAppendChild(Node newChild)

Deprecated.

Has the same arguments as AppendChild.

Parameters:

newChild - Node to be appended.

Returns:

true if no reason it can't be done; false if it can't be done.

isNodeValid

boolean isNodeValid(boolean deep,
                    short wFValidityCheckLevel)
                    throws DOMASException

Deprecated.

Determines if the Node is valid relative to currently active AS. It doesn't normalize before checking if the document is valid. To do so, one would need to explicitly call a normalize method.

Parameters:

deep - Setting the deep flag on causes the isNodeValid method to check for the whole subtree of the current node for validity. Setting it to false only checks the current node and its immediate child nodes. The validate method on the DocumentAS interface, however, checks to determine whether the entire document is valid.

wFValidityCheckLevel - Flag to tell at what level validity and well-formedness checking is done.

Returns:

true if the node is valid/well-formed in the current context and check level defined by wfValidityCheckLevel, false if not.

Throws:

DOMASException - NO_AS_AVAILABLE: Raised if the DocumentEditAS related to this node does not have any active ASModel and wfValidityCheckLevel is set to PARTIAL or STRICT_VALIDITY_CHECK .
