IDocument.ImportNode(INode, Boolean) Method

Definition

Imports a node from another document to this document, without altering or removing the source node from the original document; this method creates a new copy of the source node.

[Android.Runtime.Register("importNode", "(Lorg/w3c/dom/Node;Z)Lorg/w3c/dom/Node;", "GetImportNode_Lorg_w3c_dom_Node_ZHandler:Org.W3c.Dom.IDocumentInvoker, Mono.Android, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null")]
public Org.W3c.Dom.INode? ImportNode (Org.W3c.Dom.INode? importedNode, bool deep);
[<Android.Runtime.Register("importNode", "(Lorg/w3c/dom/Node;Z)Lorg/w3c/dom/Node;", "GetImportNode_Lorg_w3c_dom_Node_ZHandler:Org.W3c.Dom.IDocumentInvoker, Mono.Android, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null")>]
abstract member ImportNode : Org.W3c.Dom.INode * bool -> Org.W3c.Dom.INode

Parameters

importedNode
INode

The node to import.

deep
Boolean

If true, recursively import the subtree under the specified node; if false, import only the node itself, as explained above. This has no effect on nodes that cannot have any children, and on Attr, and EntityReference nodes.

Returns

The imported node that belongs to this Document.

Attributes

Exceptions

NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR: Raised if the type of node being imported is not supported.
INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: Raised if one of the imported names is not an XML name according to the XML version in use specified in the Document.xmlVersion attribute. This may happen when importing an XML 1.1 [] element into an XML 1.0 document, for instance.

Remarks

Imports a node from another document to this document, without altering or removing the source node from the original document; this method creates a new copy of the source node. The returned node has no parent; (parentNode is null). <br>For all nodes, importing a node creates a node object owned by the importing document, with attribute values identical to the source node's nodeName and nodeType, plus the attributes related to namespaces (prefix, localName, and namespaceURI). As in the cloneNode operation, the source node is not altered. User data associated to the imported node is not carried over. However, if any UserDataHandlers has been specified along with the associated data these handlers will be called with the appropriate parameters before this method returns. <br>Additional information is copied as appropriate to the nodeType, attempting to mirror the behavior expected if a fragment of XML or HTML source was copied from one document to another, recognizing that the two documents may have different DTDs in the XML case. The following list describes the specifics for each type of node. <dl> <dt>ATTRIBUTE_NODE</dt> <dd>The ownerElement attribute is set to null and the specified flag is set to true on the generated Attr. The descendants of the source Attr are recursively imported and the resulting nodes reassembled to form the corresponding subtree. Note that the deep parameter has no effect on Attr nodes; they always carry their children with them when imported.</dd> <dt>DOCUMENT_FRAGMENT_NODE</dt> <dd>If the deep option was set to true, the descendants of the source DocumentFragment are recursively imported and the resulting nodes reassembled under the imported DocumentFragment to form the corresponding subtree. Otherwise, this simply generates an empty DocumentFragment.</dd> <dt>DOCUMENT_NODE</dt> <dd>Document nodes cannot be imported.</dd> <dt>DOCUMENT_TYPE_NODE</dt> <dd>DocumentType nodes cannot be imported.</dd> <dt>ELEMENT_NODE</dt> <dd><em>Specified</em> attribute nodes of the source element are imported, and the generated Attr nodes are attached to the generated Element. Default attributes are <em>not</em> copied, though if the document being imported into defines default attributes for this element name, those are assigned. If the importNodedeep parameter was set to true, the descendants of the source element are recursively imported and the resulting nodes reassembled to form the corresponding subtree.</dd> <dt>ENTITY_NODE</dt> <dd>Entity nodes can be imported, however in the current release of the DOM the DocumentType is readonly. Ability to add these imported nodes to a DocumentType will be considered for addition to a future release of the DOM.On import, the publicId, systemId, and notationName attributes are copied. If a deep import is requested, the descendants of the the source Entity are recursively imported and the resulting nodes reassembled to form the corresponding subtree.</dd> <dt> ENTITY_REFERENCE_NODE</dt> <dd>Only the EntityReference itself is copied, even if a deep import is requested, since the source and destination documents might have defined the entity differently. If the document being imported into provides a definition for this entity name, its value is assigned.</dd> <dt>NOTATION_NODE</dt> <dd> Notation nodes can be imported, however in the current release of the DOM the DocumentType is readonly. Ability to add these imported nodes to a DocumentType will be considered for addition to a future release of the DOM.On import, the publicId and systemId attributes are copied. Note that the deep parameter has no effect on this type of nodes since they cannot have any children.</dd> <dt> PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION_NODE</dt> <dd>The imported node copies its target and data values from those of the source node.Note that the deep parameter has no effect on this type of nodes since they cannot have any children.</dd> <dt>TEXT_NODE, CDATA_SECTION_NODE, COMMENT_NODE</dt> <dd>These three types of nodes inheriting from CharacterData copy their data and length attributes from those of the source node.Note that the deep parameter has no effect on these types of nodes since they cannot have any children.</dd> </dl>
