QDomDocumentFragment Class Reference
[XML module]

The QDomDocumentFragment class is a tree of QDomNodes which is not usually a complete QDomDocument. More...

All the functions in this class are reentrant when Qt is built with thread support.

Detailed Description

If you want to do complex tree operations it is useful to have a lightweight class to store nodes and their relations. QDomDocumentFragment stores a subtree of a document which does not necessarily represent a well-formed XML document.

QDomDocumentFragment is also useful if you want to group several nodes in a list and insert them all together as children of some node. In these cases QDomDocumentFragment can be used as a temporary container for this list of children.

The most important feature of QDomDocumentFragment is that it is treated in a special way by QDomNode::insertAfter(), QDomNode::insertBefore(), QDomNode::replaceChild() and QDomNode::appendChild(): instead of inserting the fragment itself, all the fragment's children are inserted.

QDomDocumentFragment::QDomDocumentFragment ()

QDomDocumentFragment::QDomDocumentFragment ( const QDomDocumentFragment & x )

The data of the copy is shared (shallow copy): modifying one node will also change the other. If you want to make a deep copy, use cloneNode().

QDomDocumentFragment::~QDomDocumentFragment ()

bool QDomDocumentFragment::isDocumentFragment () const [virtual]

See also nodeType() and QDomNode::toDocumentFragment().

Reimplemented from QDomNode.

QDomNode::NodeType QDomDocumentFragment::nodeType () const [virtual]

See also isDocumentFragment() and QDomNode::toDocumentFragment().

Reimplemented from QDomNode.

QDomDocumentFragment & QDomDocumentFragment::operator= ( const QDomDocumentFragment & x )

The data of the copy is shared (shallow copy): modifying one node will also change the other. If you want to make a deep copy, use cloneNode().
