REXML::AttlistDecl

This class needs:

  • Documentation

  • Work! Not all types of attlists are intelligently parsed, so we just

spew back out what we get in. This works, but it would be better if we formatted the output ourselves.

AttlistDecls provide just enough support to allow namespace declarations. If you need some sort of generalized support, or have an interesting idea about how to map the hideous, terrible design of DTD AttlistDecls onto an intuitive Ruby interface, let me know. I’m desperate for anything to make DTDs more palateable.

Attributes

element_name[R]

What is this? Got me.

Public Class Methods

new(source)

Create an AttlistDecl, pulling the information from a Source. Notice that this isn’t very convenient; to create an AttlistDecl, you basically have to format it yourself, and then have the initializer parse it. Sorry, but for the foreseeable future, DTD support in REXML is pretty weak on convenience. Have I mentioned how much I hate DTDs?

 
               # File rexml/attlistdecl.rb, line 29
def initialize(source)
  super()
  if (source.kind_of? Array)
    @element_name, @pairs, @contents = *source
  end
end
            

Public Instance Methods

[](key)

Access the attlist attribute/value pairs.

value = attlist_decl[ attribute_name ]
 
               # File rexml/attlistdecl.rb, line 38
def [](key)
  @pairs[key]
end
            
each(&block)

Iterate over the key/value pairs:

attlist_decl.each { |attribute_name, attribute_value| ... }
 
               # File rexml/attlistdecl.rb, line 50
def each(&block)
  @pairs.each(&block)
end
            
include?(key)

Whether an attlist declaration includes the given attribute definition

if attlist_decl.include? "xmlns:foobar"
 
               # File rexml/attlistdecl.rb, line 44
def include?(key)
  @pairs.keys.include? key
end
            
node_type()
 
               # File rexml/attlistdecl.rb, line 59
def node_type
  :attlistdecl
end
            
write(out, indent=-1)

Write out exactly what we got in.

 
               # File rexml/attlistdecl.rb, line 55
def write out, indent=-1
  out << @contents
end
