An object representing an element of a SOAP message that is allowed but not specifically prescribed by a SOAP specification. This interface serves as the base interface for those objects that are specifically prescribed by a SOAP specification.
 Methods in this interface that are required to return SAAJ specific objects
 may "silently" replace nodes in the tree as required to successfully return
 objects of the correct type. See  
 
 
getChildElements() and 
 javax.xml.soap
 for details.

SOAPElement addChildElement(Name name) throws SOAPException
SOAPElement object initialized with the
 given Name object and adds the new element to this
 SOAPElement object.
 This method may be deprecated in a future release of SAAJ in favor of addChildElement(javax.xml.namespace.QName)
name - a Name object with the XML name for the
 new element
SOAPElement object that was created
SOAPException - if there is an error in creating the
 SOAPElement objectaddChildElement(javax.xml.namespace.QName)SOAPElement addChildElement(QName qname) throws SOAPException
SOAPElement object initialized with the given 
 QName object and adds the new element to this SOAPElement
 object. The namespace, localname and prefix of the new 
 SOAPElement are all taken from the qname argument.
qname - a QName object with the XML name for the
 new element
SOAPElement object that was created
SOAPException - if there is an error in creating the
 SOAPElement objectaddChildElement(Name)SOAPElement addChildElement(String localName) throws SOAPException
SOAPElement object initialized with the
 specified local name and adds the new element to this
 SOAPElement object. 
 The new SOAPElement inherits any in-scope default namespace.
localName - a String giving the local name for
 the element
SOAPElement object that was created
SOAPException - if there is an error in creating the
 SOAPElement objectSOAPElement addChildElement(String localName, String prefix) throws SOAPException
SOAPElement object initialized with the
 specified local name and prefix and adds the new element to this
 SOAPElement object.
localName - a String giving the local name for
 the new elementprefix - a String giving the namespace prefix for
 the new element
SOAPElement object that was created
SOAPException - if the prefix is not valid in the
 context of this SOAPElement or if there is an error in creating the
 SOAPElement objectSOAPElement addChildElement(String localName, String prefix, String uri) throws SOAPException
SOAPElement object initialized with the
 specified local name, prefix, and URI and adds the new element to this
 SOAPElement object.
localName - a String giving the local name for
 the new elementprefix - a String giving the namespace prefix for
 the new elementuri - a String giving the URI of the namespace
 to which the new element belongs
SOAPElement object that was created
SOAPException - if there is an error in creating the
 SOAPElement objectSOAPElement addChildElement(SOAPElement element) throws SOAPException
SOAPElement as a child of this
 SOAPElement instance. The SOAPElement
 is expected to be created by a
 SOAPFactory. Callers should not rely on the
 element instance being added as is into the XML
 tree. Implementations could end up copying the content
 of the SOAPElement passed into an instance of
 a different SOAPElement implementation. For
 instance if addChildElement() is called on a
 SOAPHeader, element will be copied
 into an instance of a SOAPHeaderElement.
 The fragment rooted in element is either added
 as a whole or not at all, if there was an error.
 
The fragment rooted in element cannot contain
 elements named "Envelope", "Header" or "Body" and in the SOAP
 namespace. Any namespace prefixes present in the fragment
 should be fully resolved using appropriate namespace
 declarations within the fragment itself.
element - the SOAPElement to be added as a
 new child
SOAPException - if there was an error in adding this
 element as a childvoid removeContents()
SOAPElement.
 
 This method is useful for rolling back the construction of partially 
 completed SOAPHeaders and SOAPBodys in 
 preparation for sending a fault when an error condition is detected. It 
 is also useful for recycling portions of a document within a SOAP 
 message.
SOAPElement addTextNode(String text) throws SOAPException
Text object initialized with the given
 String and adds it to this SOAPElement object.
text - a String object with the textual content to be added
SOAPElement object into which
 the new Text object was inserted
SOAPException - if there is an error in creating the
 new Text object or if it is not legal to
 attach it as a child to this 
 SOAPElementSOAPElement addAttribute(Name name, String value) throws SOAPException
SOAPElement object.
name - a Name object with the name of the attributevalue - a String giving the value of the attribute
SOAPElement object into which the attribute was
 inserted
SOAPException - if there is an error in creating the
 Attribute, or it is invalid to set 
 an attribute with Name 
 name on this SOAPElement.addAttribute(javax.xml.namespace.QName, String)SOAPElement addAttribute(QName qname, String value) throws SOAPException
SOAPElement object.
qname - a QName object with the name of the attributevalue - a String giving the value of the attribute
SOAPElement object into which the attribute was
 inserted
SOAPException - if there is an error in creating the
 Attribute, or it is invalid to set
 an attribute with QName 
 qname on this SOAPElement.addAttribute(Name, String)SOAPElement addNamespaceDeclaration(String prefix, String uri) throws SOAPException
SOAPElement object.
prefix - a String giving the prefix of the namespaceuri - a String giving the uri of the namespace
SOAPElement object into which this
 namespace declaration was inserted.
SOAPException - if there is an error in creating the
 namespaceString getAttributeValue(Name name)
name - a Name object with the name of the attribute
String giving the value of the specified
 attribute, Null if there is no such attributegetAttributeValue(javax.xml.namespace.QName)String getAttributeValue(QName qname)
qname - a QName object with the qname of the attribute
String giving the value of the specified
 attribute, Null if there is no such attributegetAttributeValue(Name)Iterator getAllAttributes()
Iterator over all of the attribute 
 Name objects in this
 SOAPElement object. The iterator can be used to get
 the attribute names, which can then be passed to the method
 getAttributeValue to retrieve the value of each
 attribute.
getAllAttributesAsQNames()Iterator getAllAttributesAsQNames()
Iterator over all of the attributes
 in this SOAPElement as QName objects. 
 The iterator can be used to get the attribute QName, which can then 
 be passed to the method getAttributeValue to retrieve 
 the value of each attribute.
getAllAttributes()String getNamespaceURI(String prefix)
prefix - a String giving the prefix of the namespace
 for which to search
String with the uri of the namespace that has
 the given prefixIterator getNamespacePrefixes()
Iterator over the namespace prefix
 Strings declared by this element. The prefixes returned by
 this iterator can be passed to the method
 getNamespaceURI to retrieve the URI of each namespace.
SOAPElement objectIterator getVisibleNamespacePrefixes()
Iterator over the namespace prefix
 Strings visible to this element. The prefixes returned by
 this iterator can be passed to the method
 getNamespaceURI to retrieve the URI of each namespace.
SOAPElement objectQName createQName(String localName, String prefix) throws SOAPException
QName whose namespace URI is the one associated
 with the parameter, prefix, in the context of this
 SOAPElement. The remaining elements of the new 
 QName are taken directly from the parameters, 
 localName and prefix.
localName - a String containing the local part of the name.prefix - a String containing the prefix for the name.
QName with the specified localName
 and prefix, and with a namespace that is associated
 with the prefix in the context of this 
 SOAPElement. This namespace will be the same as
 the one that would be returned by 
 getNamespaceURI(String)prefix as it's parameter.
SOAPException - if the QName cannot be created.Name getElementName()
SOAPElement object.
Name object with the name of this
 SOAPElement objectQName getElementQName()
SOAPElement object.
QName object with the qname of this
 SOAPElement objectgetElementName()SOAPElement setElementQName(QName newName) throws SOAPException
Element to newName if 
 possible. SOAP Defined elements such as SOAPEnvelope, SOAPHeader, SOAPBody 
 etc. cannot have their names changed using this method. Any attempt to do 
 so will result in a SOAPException being thrown.
 Callers should not rely on the element instance being renamed as is. 
 Implementations could end up copying the content of the 
 SOAPElement to a renamed instance.
newName - the new name for the Element.
SOAPException - if changing the name of this Element
 is not allowed.boolean removeAttribute(Name name)
name - the Name object with the name of the
 attribute to be removed
true if the attribute was
 removed successfully; false if it was notremoveAttribute(javax.xml.namespace.QName)boolean removeAttribute(QName qname)
qname - the QName object with the qname of the
 attribute to be removed
true if the attribute was
 removed successfully; false if it was notremoveAttribute(Name)boolean removeNamespaceDeclaration(String prefix)
prefix - a String giving the prefix for which
 to search
true if the namespace declaration was
 removed successfully; false if it was notIterator getChildElements()
Iterator over all the immediate child
 Nodes of this element. This includes javax.xml.soap.Text
 objects as well as SOAPElement objects.
 
 Calling this method may cause child  
Element, 
 SOAPElement and org.w3c.dom.Text nodes to be 
 replaced by SOAPElement, SOAPHeaderElement, 
 SOAPBodyElement or javax.xml.soap.Text nodes as
 appropriate for the type of this parent node. As a result the calling 
 application must treat any existing references to these child nodes that 
 have been obtained through DOM APIs as invalid and either discard them or
 refresh them with the values returned by this Iterator. This 
 behavior can be avoided by calling the equivalent DOM APIs. See
 javax.xml.soap
 for more details.
