public class NodeCreateRule extends Rule
A rule implementation that creates a DOMNode
containing the XML at the element that matched the rule. Two concrete types of nodes can be created by this rule:- the default is to create an
Element
node. The created element will correspond to the element that matched the rule, containing all XML content underneath that element. - alternatively, this rule can create nodes of type
DocumentFragment
, which will contain only the XML content under the element the rule was trigged on.
The created
Node
will be pushed on Digester's object stack when done. To use it in the context of another DOMDocument
, it must be imported first, using the Document methodimportNode()
.Important Note: This is implemented by replacing the SAX
ContentHandler
in the parser used by Digester, and resetting it when the matched element is closed. As a side effect, rules that would match XML nodes under the element that matches aNodeCreateRule
will never be triggered by Digester, which usually is the behavior one would expect.Note that the current implementation does not set the namespace prefixes in the exported nodes. The (usually more important) namespace URIs are set, of course.
