Interface DOMImplementation


public interface DOMImplementation

The DOMImplementation interface provides a number of methods for performing operations that are independent of any particular instance of the document object model.

See also the Document Object Model (DOM) Level 2 Core Specification.

Method Summary

Document

createDocument(java.lang.String namespaceURI, java.lang.String qualifiedName, DocumentType doctype)

Creates a DOM Document object of the specified type with its document element.

DocumentType

createDocumentType(java.lang.String qualifiedName, java.lang.String publicId, java.lang.String systemId)

Creates an empty DocumentType node.

boolean

hasFeature(java.lang.String feature, java.lang.String version)

Test if the DOM implementation implements a specific feature.

Method Details

createDocument

public Document createDocument(java.lang.String namespaceURI, java.lang.String qualifiedName, DocumentType doctype)

Creates a DOM Document object of the specified type with its document element.

Since:
DOM Level 2
Parameters:
namespaceURI - The namespace URI of the document element to create.
qualifiedName - The qualified name of the document element to be created.
doctype - The type of document to be created or null.
Returns:
A new Document object.
Throws:
DOMException - INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: Raised if the specified qualified name contains an illegal character.

createDocumentType

public DocumentType createDocumentType(java.lang.String qualifiedName, java.lang.String publicId, java.lang.String systemId)

Creates an empty DocumentType node. Entity declarations and notations are not made available. Entity reference expansions and default attribute additions do not occur. It is expected that a future version of the DOM will provide a way for populating a DocumentType.

Since:
DOM Level 2
Parameters:
qualifiedName - The qualified name of the document type to be created.
publicId - The external subset public identifier.
systemId - The external subset system identifier.
Returns:
A new DocumentType node with Node.ownerDocument set to null.
Throws:
DOMException - INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: Raised if the specified qualified name contains an illegal character.

hasFeature

public boolean hasFeature(java.lang.String feature, java.lang.String version)

Test if the DOM implementation implements a specific feature.

Parameters:
feature - The name of the feature to test (case-insensitive).
version - This is the version number of the feature to test.
Returns:
true if the feature is implemented in the specified version, false otherwise.
