DOMSource

public class DOMSource extends Object implements Source

Acts as a holder for a transformation Source tree in the form of a Document Object Model (DOM) tree.

Note that XSLT requires namespace support. Attempting to transform a DOM that was not contructed with a namespace-aware parser may result in errors. Parsers can be made namespace aware by calling {@link javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory#setNamespaceAware(boolean awareness)}.

Fields Summary
private Node
node

Node to serve as DOM source.

private String
systemID

The base ID (URL or system ID) from where URLs will be resolved.

public static final String
FEATURE
If {@link javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory#getFeature} returns true when passed this value as an argument, the Transformer supports Source input of this type.
Constructors Summary
public DOMSource()

Zero-argument default constructor. If this constructor is used, and no DOM source is set using {@link #setNode(Node node)} , then the Transformer will create an empty source {@link org.w3c.dom.Document} using {@link javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder#newDocument()}.

see
javax.xml.transform.Transformer#transform(Source xmlSource, Result outputTarget)
public DOMSource(Node n)
Create a new input source with a DOM node. The operation will be applied to the subtree rooted at this node. In XSLT, a "/" pattern still means the root of the tree (not the subtree), and the evaluation of global variables and parameters is done from the root node also.

param
n The DOM node that will contain the Source tree.

        setNode(n);
public DOMSource(Node node, String systemID)
Create a new input source with a DOM node, and with the system ID also passed in as the base URI.

param
node The DOM node that will contain the Source tree.
param
systemID Specifies the base URI associated with node.

        setNode(node);
        setSystemId(systemID);
Methods Summary
public org.w3c.dom.NodegetNode()
Get the node that represents a Source DOM tree.

return
The node that is to be transformed.

        return node;
public java.lang.StringgetSystemId()
Get the base ID (URL or system ID) from where URLs will be resolved.

return
Base URL for this DOM tree.

        return this.systemID;
public voidsetNode(org.w3c.dom.Node node)
Set the node that will represents a Source DOM tree.

param
node The node that is to be transformed.

        this.node = node;
public voidsetSystemId(java.lang.String systemID)
Set the base ID (URL or system ID) from where URLs will be resolved.

param
systemID Base URL for this DOM tree.

        this.systemID = systemID;
