public class Text

extends Content

Character-based XML content. Provides a modular, parentable method of representing text. Text makes no guarantees about the underlying textual representation of character data, but does expose that data as a Java String.

Constructor Summary
protected	Text()           This is the protected, no-args constructor standard in all JDOM classes.
	Text(java.lang.String str)           This constructor creates a new Text node, with the supplied string value as it's character content.

 

Method Summary
void	append(java.lang.String str)           This will append character content to whatever content already exists within this Text node.
void	append(Text text)           This will append the content of another Text node to this node.
java.lang.Object	clone()           This will return a clone of this Text node, with the same character content, but no parent.
java.lang.String	getText()           This returns the value of this Text node as a Java String.
java.lang.String	getTextNormalize()           This returns the textual content with all surrounding whitespace removed and internal whitespace normalized to a single space.
java.lang.String	getTextTrim()           This returns the textual content with all surrounding whitespace removed.
java.lang.String	getValue()           Returns the XPath 1.0 string value of this element, which is the text itself.
static java.lang.String	normalizeString(java.lang.String str)           This returns a new string with all surrounding whitespace removed and internal whitespace normalized to a single space.
Text	setText(java.lang.String str)           This will set the value of this Text node.
java.lang.String	toString()           This returns a String representation of the Text node, suitable for debugging.

Constructor Detail

Text

protected Text()

This is the protected, no-args constructor standard in all JDOM classes. It allows subclassers to get a raw instance with no initialization.

---

Text

public Text(java.lang.String str)

This constructor creates a new Text node, with the supplied string value as it's character content.

Method Detail

getText

public java.lang.String getText()

This returns the value of this Text node as a Java String.

---

getTextTrim

public java.lang.String getTextTrim()

This returns the textual content with all surrounding whitespace removed. If only whitespace exists, the empty string is returned.

---

getTextNormalize

public java.lang.String getTextNormalize()

This returns the textual content with all surrounding whitespace removed and internal whitespace normalized to a single space. If only whitespace exists, the empty string is returned.

---

normalizeString

public static java.lang.String normalizeString(java.lang.String str)

This returns a new string with all surrounding whitespace removed and internal whitespace normalized to a single space. If only whitespace exists, the empty string is returned.

Per XML 1.0 Production 3 whitespace includes: #x20, #x9, #xD, #xA

---

setText

public Text setText(java.lang.String str)

This will set the value of this Text node.

---

append

public void append(java.lang.String str)

This will append character content to whatever content already exists within this Text node.

---

append

public void append(Text text)

This will append the content of another Text node to this node.

---

getValue

public java.lang.String getValue()

Returns the XPath 1.0 string value of this element, which is the text itself.

Specified by:

getValue in class Content

---

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

This returns a String representation of the Text node, suitable for debugging. If the XML representation of the Text node is desired, either getText() 55 or org.jdom.output.XMLOutputter#outputString(Text) should be used.

---

clone

public java.lang.Object clone()

This will return a clone of this Text node, with the same character content, but no parent.

Overrides:

clone in class Content
