| Microsoft XML Core Services (MSXML) 5.0 for Microsoft Office - DOM Reference |  |
getDeclaration Method
Returns an ISchemaItem object. This object is the declaration of the DOM node that is sent to the function. The declaration specifies the schema information that is used to validate the document item in the DOM node. The ISchemaItem interface can be used to obtain further information about the schema declaration stored in the ISchemaItem object.
[Script]
Implementation Syntax
var oSchemaItem = oDom.namespaces.getDeclaration(oDOMNode);
Parameters
- oDOMNode
- An object. The DOM node for which a declaration object will be returned.
Return Values
- oSchemaItem
- An object. The schema item object that describes the specified DOM node, passed in the
nodeparameter.
Code Example
The following VBScript example shows the getDeclaration method in a schema.
' Load the doc.
Set oDoc = CreateObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument.5.0")
oDoc.async = false
oDoc.load "po2.xml"
If (xmlDoc.parseError.errorCode <> 0) Then
Dim myErr
Set myErr = xmlDoc.parseError
MsgBox("You have error " & myErr.reason)
Else
' Retrieve the namespace URI for schema used in
' purchase order document.
Set oDecl = oDoc.namespaces.getDeclaration(oDoc.documentElement)
WScript.Echo oDecl.namespaceURI
End If
[Visual Basic]
Implementation Syntax
Set oSchemaItem = oDom.namespaces.getDeclaration(oDOMNode)
Parameters
- oDOMNode
- An object. The DOM node for which a declaration object will be returned.
Return Values
- oSchemaItem
- An object. The schema item object for the specified DOM node, passed in the
nodeparameter.
[C/C++]
Syntax
HRESULT getDeclaration(IXMLDOMNode* node, ISchemaItem** item);
Parameters
- node [in]
- An object. The DOM node.
- item [out,retval]
- An object. The schema object for the specified DOM.
Return Values
- S_OK
- The value returned if successful.
- E_INVALIDARG
- The value returned if the DOM node points to some object other than a Node or NULL.
- E_POINTER
- The value returned if the item object is NULL
