Class TreeNode

java.lang.Object

org.tinygroup.jspengine.xmlparser.TreeNode

public class TreeNode
extends Object

Simplified implementation of a Node from a Document Object Model (DOM) parse of an XML document. This class is used to represent a DOM tree so that the XML parser's implementation of org.w3c.dom need not be visible to the remainder of Jasper.

WARNING - Construction of a new tree, or modifications to an existing one, are not thread-safe and such accesses must be synchronized.
