public class QDomDocument
The QDomDocument class represents an XML document.
The QDomDocument class represents the entire XML document. Conceptually, it is the root of the document tree, and provides the primary access to the document's data.
Since elements, text nodes, comments, processing instructions, etc., cannot exist outside the context of a document, the document class also contains the factory functions needed to create these objects. The node objects created have an ownerDocument function which associates them with the document within whose context they were created. The DOM classes that will be used most often are QDomNode, QDomDocument, QDomElement and QDomText.
The parsed XML is represented internally by a tree of objects that can be accessed using the various QDom classes. All QDom classes only reference objects in the internal tree. The internal objects in the DOM tree will get deleted once the last QDom object referencing them and the QDomDocument itself are deleted.
Creation of elements, text nodes, etc. is done using the various factory functions provided in this class. Using the default constructors of the QDom classes will only result in empty objects that cannot be manipulated or inserted into the Document.
The QDomDocument class has several functions for creating document data, for example, createElement, createTextNode, createComment, createCDATASection, createProcessingInstruction, createAttribute and createEntityReference. Some of these functions have versions that support namespaces, i.e. createElementNS and createAttributeNS. The createDocumentFragment function is used to hold parts of the document; this is useful for manipulating for complex documents.
The entire content of the document is set with setContent(). This function parses the string it is passed as an XML document and creates the DOM tree that represents the document. The root element is available using documentElement. The textual representation of the document can be obtained using toString.
It is possible to insert a node from another document into the document using importNode.
You can obtain a list of all the elements that have a particular tag with elementsByTagName or with elementsByTagNameNS.
The QDom classes are typically used as follows:
QDomDocument doc("mydocument"); QFile file("mydocument.xml"); if (!file.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly)) return; if (!doc.setContent(&file)) { file.close(); return; } file.close(); // print out the element names of all elements that are direct children // of the outermost element. QDomElement docElem = doc.documentElement(); QDomNode n = docElem.firstChild(); while(!n.isNull()) { QDomElement e = n.toElement(); // try to convert the node to an element. if(!e.isNull()) { cout << e.tagName() << endl; // the node really is an element. } n = n.nextSibling(); } // Here we append a new element to the end of the document QDomElement elem = doc.createElement("img"); elem.setAttribute("src", "myimage.png"); docElem.appendChild(elem);
Once doc and elem go out of scope, the whole internal tree representing the XML document is deleted.
To create a document using DOM use code like this:
QDomDocument doc("MyML"); QDomElement root = doc.createElement("MyML"); doc.appendChild(root); QDomElement tag = doc.createElement("Greeting"); root.appendChild(tag); QDomText t = doc.createTextNode("Hello World"); tag.appendChild(t); QString xml = doc.toString();

public final QDomAttr createAttribute(java.lang.String name)
Creates a new attribute called name that can be inserted into an element, e.g. using QDomElement::setAttributeNode().
If name is not a valid XML name, the behavior of this function is governed by QDomImplementation::InvalidDataPolicy.
public final QDomAttr createAttributeNS(java.lang.String nsURI, java.lang.String qName)
Creates a new attribute with namespace support that can be inserted into an element. The name of the attribute is qName and the namespace URI is nsURI. This function also sets QDomNode::prefix() and QDomNode::localName() to appropriate values (depending on qName).
If qName is not a valid XML name, the behavior of this function is governed by QDomImplementation::InvalidDataPolicy.
public final QDomCDATASection createCDATASection(java.lang.String data)

public final QDomElement createElementNS(java.lang.String nsURI, java.lang.String qName)
Creates a new element with namespace support that can be inserted into the DOM tree. The name of the element is qName and the namespace URI is nsURI. This function also sets QDomNode::prefix() and QDomNode::localName() to appropriate values (depending on qName).
If qName is an empty string, returns a null element.
public final QDomEntityReference createEntityReference(java.lang.String name)
Creates a new entity reference called name that can be inserted into the document, e.g. using QDomNode::appendChild().
If name is not a valid XML name, the behavior of this function is governed by QDomImplementation::InvalidDataPolicy.
public final QDomProcessingInstruction createProcessingInstruction(java.lang.String target, java.lang.String data)
Creates a new processing instruction that can be inserted into the document, e.g. using QDomNode::appendChild(). This function sets the target for the processing instruction to target and the data to data.
If target is not a valid XML name, or data if contains characters which cannot appear in a processing instruction, the behavior of this function is governed by QDomImplementation::InvalidDataPolicy.
public final QDomText createTextNode(java.lang.String data)
Creates a text node for the string data that can be inserted into the document tree, e.g. using QDomNode::appendChild().
If data contains characters which cannot be stored as character data of an XML document (even in the form of character references), the behavior of this function is governed by QDomImplementation::InvalidDataPolicy.
public final QDomDocumentType doctype()
Returns the document type of this document.
public final QDomElement documentElement()
Returns the root element of the document.
public final QDomElement elementById(java.lang.String elementId)
Returns the element whose ID is equal to elementId. If no element with the ID was found, this function returns a null element.
Since the QDomClasses do not know which attributes are element IDs, this function returns always a null element. This may change in a future version.
public final QDomNodeList elementsByTagName(java.lang.String tagname)
Returns a QDomNodeList, that contains all the elements in the document with the name tagname. The order of the node list is the order they are encountered in a preorder traversal of the element tree.
public final QDomNodeList elementsByTagNameNS(java.lang.String nsURI, java.lang.String localName)
Returns a QDomNodeList that contains all the elements in the document with the local name localName and a namespace URI of nsURI. The order of the node list is the order they are encountered in a preorder traversal of the element tree.
public final QDomImplementation implementation()
Returns a QDomImplementation object.
public final QDomNode importNode(QDomNode importedNode, boolean deep)
Imports the node importedNode from another document to this document. importedNode remains in the original document; this function creates a copy that can be used within this document.
This function returns the imported node that belongs to this document. The returned node has no parent. It is not possible to import QDomDocument and QDomDocumentType nodes. In those cases this function returns a null node.
If deep is true, this function imports not only the node importedNode but its whole subtree; if it is false, only the importedNode is imported. The argument deep has no effect on QDomAttr and QDomEntityReference nodes, since the descendents of QDomAttr nodes are always imported and those of QDomEntityReference nodes are never imported.
The behavior of this function is slightly different depending on the node types:
Node Type | Behavior |
---|---|
QDomAttr | The owner element is set to 0 and the specified flag is set to true in the generated attribute. The whole subtree of importedNode is always imported for attribute nodes: deep has no effect. |
QDomDocument | Document nodes cannot be imported. |
QDomDocumentFragment | If deep is true, this function imports the whole document fragment; otherwise it only generates an empty document fragment. |
QDomDocumentType | Document type nodes cannot be imported. |
QDomElement | Attributes for which QDomAttr::specified() is true are also imported, other attributes are not imported. If deep is true, this function also imports the subtree of importedNode; otherwise it imports only the element node (and some attributes, see above). |
QDomEntity | Entity nodes can be imported, but at the moment there is no way to use them since the document type is read-only in DOM level 2. |
QDomEntityReference | Descendents of entity reference nodes are never imported: deep has no effect. |
QDomNotation | Notation nodes can be imported, but at the moment there is no way to use them since the document type is read-only in DOM level 2. |
QDomProcessingInstruction | The target and value of the processing instruction is copied to the new node. |
QDomText | The text is copied to the new node. |
QDomCDATASection | The text is copied to the new node. |
QDomComment | The text is copied to the new node. |
