QDomComment(3qt)

📦 version 3.3.8b, in fedora 43, fedora 44

💖 QDomComment 💖

okay bestie, so the manual name is QDomComment(3qt) — that's this whole page, that's what we're doing today. it's giving "Qt 3 docs but make it cute". let's go 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

QDomComment — the class that represents an XML comment. that's it, that's the vibe 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

okay so big important note first: all the functions in this class are reentrant when Qt is built with thread support. no cap, that's straight from the docs. 🧵✨

#include <qdom.h>

it inherits QDomCharacterData — so it's got that family tree going on, iykyk.

👑 Public Members 👑

  • QDomComment ()
  • QDomComment ( const QDomComment & x )
  • QDomComment & operator= ( const QDomComment & x )
  • ~QDomComment ()
  • virtual QDomNode::NodeType nodeType () const
  • virtual bool isComment () const

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

The QDomComment class represents an XML comment. periodt.

so like, when you've got a comment in your parsed XML that looks like this:

<!-- this is a comment -->

it gets represented by QDomComment objects in the parsed Dom tree. it's literally the comment, but as a whole little object. main character energy fr fr 🫶

want the deeper lore? for further information about the Document Object Model, go look at http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-DOM-Level-1/ and http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Core/. and if you want a more general introduction to the DOM implementation, the QDomDocument documentation is where it's at. 🌈

🦋 MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION 🦋

QDomComment::QDomComment ()

Constructs an empty comment. kinda giving blank canvas, honestly iconic.

but listen — if you want a comment with content, you don't build it here, you use the QDomDocument::createComment() function. that's the move. 💅

QDomComment::QDomComment ( const QDomComment & x )

Constructs a copy of x. yay, a twin! 🙈

but heads up bestie: the data of the copy is shared (shallow copy), which means modifying one node will also change the other. they're linked, no escaping it. if you want to make a deep copy, use cloneNode(). don't say I didn't warn you 😭

QDomComment::~QDomComment ()

Destroys the object and frees its resources. bye babe, you served 💜✨

bool QDomComment::isComment () const [virtual]

Returns TRUE. yes queen, it is indeed a comment, we been knew. 👑

Reimplemented from QDomNode.

QDomNode::NodeType QDomComment::nodeType () const [virtual]

Returns CommentNode. mystery solved, it's giving comment node, exactly as expected. 🔍

Reimplemented from QDomCharacterData.

QDomComment & QDomComment::operator= ( const QDomComment & x )

Assigns x to this DOM comment. 📥

and again, same warning, same energy: the data of the copy is shared (shallow copy), so modifying one node will also change the other. if you want to make a deep copy, use cloneNode(). bestie please, remember this one. 🫶
