append a child node to this node.

Parameters:

outlineNode - The node to add.

getFirstChild

public PDOutlineItem getFirstChild()

Return the first child or null if there is no child.

Returns:

The first child.

setFirstChild

protected void setFirstChild(PDOutlineNode outlineNode)

setLastChild

protected void setLastChild(PDOutlineNode outlineNode)

Set the last child, this will be maintained by this class.

Parameters:
