* Note that this object models the actual entity, _not_ the entity * declaration or the entity reference. *
* An XML processor may choose to completely expand entities before * the structure model is passed to the DOM; in this case, there will * be no EntityReferences in the DOM tree. *
* Quoting the 10/01 DOM Proposal, *
* "The DOM Level 1 does not support editing Entity nodes; if a user * wants to make changes to the contents of an Entity, every related * EntityReference node has to be replaced in the structure model by * a clone of the Entity's contents, and then the desired changes * must be made to each of those clones instead. All the * descendants of an Entity node are readonly." ** I'm interpreting this as: It is the parser's responsibilty to call * the non-DOM operation setReadOnly(true,true) after it constructs * the Entity. Since the DOM explicitly decided not to deal with this, * _any_ answer will involve a non-DOM operation, and this is the * simplest solution. * * @xerces.internal * * @since PR-DOM-Level-1-19980818. */ public class DeferredEntityImpl extends EntityImpl implements DeferredNode { // // Constants // /** Serialization version. */ static final long serialVersionUID = 4760180431078941638L; // // Data // /** Node index. */ protected transient int fNodeIndex; // // Constructors // /** * This is the deferred constructor.
