org.dom4j Interface ProcessingInstruction

All Superinterfaces:
Cloneable, Node
All Known Implementing Classes:
AbstractProcessingInstruction

public interface ProcessingInstruction
extends Node

ProcessingInstruction defines an XML processing instruction. The Node.getName()method will return the target of the PI and the Node.getText()method will return the data from all of the instructions.

This method is the equivalent to the Node.setName(java.lang.String)method. It is added for clarity.

Parameters:
target - DOCUMENT ME!

getText

public String getText()
DOCUMENT ME!

Specified by:
getText in interface Node
Returns:
the text for all the data associated with the processing instruction

getValue

public String getValue(String name)

Parameters:
name - is the name of the attribute to lookup.
Returns:
the value of the named attribute

getValues
