QDomEntityReference(3qt)

📦 version 3.3.8b, in fedora 43, fedora 44

💖 QDomEntityReference 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the QDomEntityReference(3qt)</p> manual page — yes that's the manual name, that's the whole vibe, and we are about to get so cozy with XML entity references. grab a strawberry 🍓 and let's go.

✨ NAME ✨

QDomEntityReference — she represents an XML entity reference. that's it. that's the job. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

okay so real talk first: all the functions in this class are reentrant when Qt is built with thread support. </p> (yes that stray tag is in the original, we don't ask questions, we just respect it 🙈).

#include <qdom.h>

she Inherits QDomNode. family tree matters, iykyk.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

the QDomEntityReference class represents an XML entity reference. periodt.

a QDomEntityReference object may be inserted into the DOM tree when an entity reference is in the source document, or when the user wishes to insert an entity reference. lowkey versatile of her.

note bestie: character references and references to predefined entities are expanded by the XML processor, so that characters are represented by their Unicode equivalent rather than by an entity reference. so don't come for her when you don't see them. 😭

moreover — and this is highkey important — the XML processor may completely expand references to entities while building the DOM tree, instead of providing QDomEntityReference objects. so she might just… not show up. not her fault.

if it does provide such objects, then for a given entity reference node, it may be that there is no entity node representing the referenced entity. but if such an entity exists, then the child list of the entity reference node is the same as that of the entity node. as with the entity node, all descendents of the entity reference are read-only. do not try it. she said no. 💀

for further information about the Document Object Model see http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-DOM-Level-1/ and http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Core/. for a more general introduction of the DOM implementation see the QDomDocument documentation.

🎀 MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION 🎀

QDomEntityReference::QDomEntityReference ()

constructs an empty entity reference. use QDomDocument::createEntityReference() to create a entity reference with content — because an empty one is giving absolutely nothing and she knows it. ✨

QDomEntityReference::QDomEntityReference ( const QDomEntityReference & x )

constructs a copy of x.

⚠️ the data of the copy is shared (shallow copy): modifying one node will also change the other. if you want to make a deep copy, use cloneNode(). they're literally attached at the hip, no cap.

QDomEntityReference::~QDomEntityReference ()

destroys the object and frees its resources. she's leaving the group chat, but responsibly. 🫶

bool QDomEntityReference::isEntityReference () const [virtual]

returns TRUE. slay.

reimplemented from QDomNode.

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

returns EntityReference.

reimplemented from QDomNode.

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

assigns x to this entity reference.

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