        Parameters:
        qName - is the fully qualified name
        Returns:
        the attribute for the given fully qualified name or null if it could not be found.

      • element

        public Element element(java.lang.String name)
        Description copied from interface: Element
        Returns the first element for the given local name and any namespace.
        Specified by:
        element in interface Element
        Overrides:
        element in class DefaultElement
        Parameters:
        name - DOCUMENT ME!
        Returns:
        the first element with the given local name

      • element

        public Element element(QName qName)
        Description copied from interface: Element
        Returns the first element for the given fully qualified name.
        Specified by:
        element in interface Element
        Overrides:
        element in class DefaultElement
        Parameters:
        qName - is the fully qualified name to search for
        Returns:
        the first element with the given fully qualified name

      • elements

        public java.util.List<Element> elements(java.lang.String name)
        Description copied from interface: Element
        Returns the elements contained in this element with the given local name and any namespace. If no elements are found then this method returns an empty list. The list is backed by the element such that changes to the list will be reflected in the element though the reverse is not the case.
        Specified by:
        elements in interface Element
        Overrides:
        elements in class AbstractElement
        Parameters:
        name - DOCUMENT ME!
        Returns:
        a list of all the elements in this element for the given local name

      • elements

        public java.util.List<Element> elements(QName qName)
        Description copied from interface: Element
        Returns the elements contained in this element with the given fully qualified name. If no elements are found then this method returns an empty list. The list is backed by the element such that changes to the list will be reflected in the element though the reverse is not the case.
        Specified by:
        elements in interface Element
        Overrides:
        elements in class AbstractElement
        Parameters:
        qName - is the fully qualified name to search for
        Returns:
        a list of all the elements in this element for the given fully qualified name.
