Class ContentFilter

com.softwareag.tamino.db.api.response.sax.helper.sodom.filter.ContentFilter

All Implemented Interfaces:

Filter

public class ContentFilter
extends java.lang.Object
implements Filter

ContentFilter is a general purpose Filter representing all legal JDOM objects and allows the ability to set and unset the visiblity of these objects. Filtering is accomplished by way of a filtering mask in which each bit represents whether a JDOM object is visible or not.

For example to view all Text and CDATA nodes in the content of element x.

      Filter filter = new ContentFilter(ContentFilter.TEXT |
                                        ContentFilter.CDATA);
      List content = x.getContent(filter);
 

For those who don't like bit-masking, set methods are provided as an alternative. For example to allow everything except Comment nodes.

      Filter filter =  new ContentFilter();
      filter.setCommentVisible(false);
      List content = x.getContent(filter);
 

The default is to allow all valid JDOM objects.
