All Implemented Interfaces:
java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<Mode>

public enum Mode
extends java.lang.Enum<Mode>

The Mode enumeration is used to specify the output mode for XML text. This is used by the OutputNode to describe if element text will be escaped or wrapped in a CDATA block. The mode is a three state object, the third of the states indicates whether an explicit state has been set or not. If a specific state has not been set then the node will inherit its output mode from the last parent to have it set.

Enum Constant Detail

DATA

public static final Mode DATA
Indicates that data written will be within a CDATA block.


ESCAPE

public static final Mode ESCAPE
Indicates that data written will be escaped if required.


INHERIT

public static final Mode INHERIT
Indicates that the mode will be inherited from its parent.

Method Detail

values

public static Mode[] values()
Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:
for (Mode c : Mode.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:
an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static Mode valueOf(java.lang.String name)
Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:
name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
Returns:
the enum constant with the specified name
Throws:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null
