what is this?

Joseph Millar

can anybody says me what is this page?
http://www.onjava.com/pub/a/onjava/2001/02/08/dom.html?page=2

i try to make one class with the interface code but appears this error:
illegal start of type
const short ..

how can i implements this code , interface code, into one class?
thanks

NodeFiler is an interface defined in xerces.jar, it's full name
is org.w3c.dom.traversal.NodeFilter. This is not something you
need to compile, I believe the author was just showing the
definition for further explanation of the use of NodeFilter and
its static values. But unfortunately, this is not valid Java
code (const and unsigned are invalid in Java, they are C/C++
keywords). So I have no idea where that code came from, but the
actual code for NodeFilter from Xerces 1.4.4 below.

Hope this helps.

* Filters are objects that know how to "filter out" nodes. If a

* node. If the filter says to accept the node, the traversal logic returns
* it; otherwise, traversal looks for the next node and pretends that the
* node that was rejected was not there.
* <p>The DOM does not provide any filters. <code>NodeFilter</code> is just an

* to node, nor do they need to know anything about the data structure that
* is being traversed. This makes it very easy to write filters, since the

i am trying to import:
import org.apache.xerces.parsers.DOMParser;
import org.apache.xerces.dom.traversal.NodeIteratorImpl;
import org.apache.xerces.dom.DocumentImpl;
import org.apache.xerces.domx.traversal.NodeFilter;

and appears this error.


file.java [29:1] package org.apache.xerces.dom.traversal does not exist
import org.apache.xerces.dom.traversal.NodeIteratorImpl;
^
file.java [31:1] package org.apache.xerces.domx.traversal does not exist
import org.apache.xerces.domx.traversal.NodeFilter;

what jar file must i download for putting in my classpasth?
where can i find this file?
thanks

NodeIteratorImpl is in package org.apache.xerces.dom.NodeIteratorImpl.

The source code for 2.4.0 has this class in the first package,
but the binary has it in the same place as 1.4.4. It's a bit
confusing, but I have to think the binary is correct.
file.java [31:1] package org.apache.xerces.domx.traversal does not exist
import org.apache.xerces.domx.traversal.NodeFilter;

NodeFilter is in package org.w3c.dom.traversal.NodeFilter.

Both of these classes are in Xerces.jar 1.4.4. See the first
page of the article for where to download it from.

http://xml.apache.org/dist/xerces-j/

Try making those changes and see if that works. Not sure why
Ms. Fesler has those classes in other packages, but I'm not an
XML expert (yet).

const unsigned long SHOW_NOTATION = 0x00000800;
short acceptNode(in Node n);
};

const and in are not Java keywords. This looks very like Java, but it
is not Java.

In common with all DOM interfaces, (see http://www.w3.org/DOM/) the
interface in the excerpt is written in IDL (Interface description
language).

Get a CORBA implementation or an IDL to java compiler and it'll generate
some suitable Java representation of the interface.
