matlab.io.xml.dom.CDATASection Class

appendData(thisCDATASection,characters) appends characters to the end of the character data in this CDATA section.

Specify characters as a character vector or string scalar.

copy = cloneNode(thisCDATASection,deep) creates a copy of this CDATA section and returns the copy. If deep is true, the copy is a deep copy. If deep is false, the copy is a shallow copy.

posEnum = compareDocumentPosition(thisCDATASection,otherNode) returns a double value that encodes the position of otherNode relative to the position of thisCDATASection in the document that owns thisCDATASection.

To decode the returned value, posEnum, use the MATLAB expression bitor(posEnum,POSITION_ENUM) == posEnum, where POSITION_ENUM is one of these Comment methods:

For example:

import matlab.io.xml.dom.*
d = Document("root");
root = getDocumentElement(d);
cdata = createCDATASection(d,...
        "Example of a CDATA section");
appendChild(root,cdata);
pos = compareDocumentPosition(cdata,root);
if bitor(pos,cdata.DOCUMENT_POSITION_CONTAINS)...
     == pos
    disp("root contains CDATA section");
else disp("root does not contain CDATA section");
end

deleteData(thisCDATASection,offset,count) deletes a range of characters from the text in this CDATA section. The offset argument is the zero-based index of the first character to delete, specified as an integer. The count argument is the number of characters to delete, specified as an integer.

uri = getBaseURI(thisCDATASection) returns the base URI of this CDATA section as a character vector. The base URI is the URI of the document that owns this CDATA section.

str = getData(thisCDATASection) returns the character data in this CDATA section as a character vector.

count = getLength(thisCDATASection) returns the number of characters in this CDATA section as a double.

sibling = getNextSibling(thisCDATASection) returns the node that follows this CDATA section in the child list of the parent of this CDATA section node.

value = getNodeValue(thisCDATASection) returns the content of this CDATA section as a character vector.

doc = getOwnerDocument(thisCDATASection) returns the document that owns this CDATA section as a matlab.io.xml.dom.Document object. The owner document is the document that created or imported this CDATA section.

parent = getParentNode(thisCDATASection) returns the parent of this CDATA section. If this CDATA section does not have a parent, the method returns an empty node.

sibling = getPreviousSibling(thisCDATASection) returns the node that precedes this CDATA section in the child list of the parent of this CDATA section.

text = getTextContent(thisCDATASection) returns the character data in this CDATA section as a character vector.

insertData(thisCDATASection,index,data) inserts character data at the position specified by the zero-based index argument. Specify data as a character vector or string scalar.

tf = isEqualNode(thisCDATASection,otherNode) returns true if the node specified by otherNode is a CDATASection node and has the same content as thisCDATASection.

This method tests for equality of nodes, not whether the nodes are handles to the same object. To test for sameness, use the isSameNode method.

Nodes that are the same are also equal, but nodes that are equal are not necessarily the same.

Normalize documents before testing them for equality because normalization can affect equality.

tf = isSameNode(thisCDATASection,otherNode) returns true if otherNode is the same node as thisCDATASection.

replaceData(thisCDATASection,index,count,data) replaces the number of characters specified by count in the text content of this CDATA section node, starting at the position specified by the zero-based index, with the characters specified by data.

Specify index and count as integers. Specify data as a character vector or string scalar.

setData(thisCDATASection,data) replaces the current content of this CDATA section node with the text specified by data.

Specify data as a character vector or string scalar.

setNodeValue(thisCDATASection,value) sets the text content of this CDATA section node to the text specified by value.

Specify value as a character vector or string scalar.

setTextContent(thisCDATASection,textContent) sets the text content of this CDATA section node to the text specified by textContent.

Specify textContent as a character vector or string scalar.

newNode = splitText(thisCDATASection,index) splits this CDATASection node into two CDATASection nodes at the specified zero-based index and returns the new CDATASection node. After the split, the original node contains the original text up to the index. The new node contains the original text from the index. If the index equals the length of the original text, the new node is empty. If this CDATASection node has a parent, the method inserts the new node after this CDATASection node in the parent node.

substringData(thisCDATASection,index,count) returns the characters specified by index and count. Index is the zero-based position of the first character to return and count is the number of characters to return.

Specify index and count as integers.
