Class AbstractNode

java.lang.Object
  com.nwoods.jgo.svg.AbstractNode

All Implemented Interfaces:

DomNode

Direct Known Subclasses:

DefaultCDATASection, DefaultElement, DefaultText

public class AbstractNode

extends java.lang.Object

implements DomNode

A wrapper class for org.w3c.dom.Node. By implementing the interface DomNode, this class allows the com.nwoods.jgo package to provide methods that manipulate org.w3c.dom.Node objects while not requiring the org.w3c.dom.Node class to be present in order to build com.nwoods.jgo. JGo applications that support serialization to and from SVG XML files require this class.
