Class TraversalUtil

java.lang.Object

org.docx4j.TraversalUtil

public class TraversalUtil
extends java.lang.Object

Traverse a list of JAXB objects (eg document.xml's document/body children), and do something to them. This is similar to what one could do via XSLT, but avoids marshalling/unmarshalling. The downside is that not everything will necessarily get traversed here since visitChildren is not (yet) comprehensive. This utility might be redundant if we used http://code.google.com/p/jaxb-visitor/ or https://github.com/ops4j/org.ops4j.xvisitor at XJC time. Haven't tried them though.

Constructor Detail

TraversalUtil

public TraversalUtil(java.lang.Object parent,
                     TraversalUtil.Callback cb)

Traverse the object using your callback. Invoking this constructor starts the traverse, by invoking the callback's walkJAXBElements method.

Parameters:

parent -

cb -

Method Detail

getChildrenImpl

public static java.util.List<java.lang.Object> getChildrenImpl(java.lang.Object o)

Get the children of some docx content object (as opposed to pptx, xlsx content).

Parameters:

o -

Returns:

replaceChildren

public static void replaceChildren(java.lang.Object o,
                                   java.util.List<java.lang.Object> newChildren)

visit

public static void visit(WordprocessingMLPackage wmlPackage,
                         boolean bodyOnly,
                         TraversalUtilVisitor visitor)

Use this if there is only a single object type (eg just P's) you are interested in doing something with. This method allows you to traverse just the main document part, or also headers/footers, footnotes/endnotes, and comments as well.

Parameters:

wmlPackage -

bodyOnly -

visitor -

visit

public static void visit(java.lang.Object parent,
                         TraversalUtilVisitor visitor)

Use this if there is only a single object type (eg just P's) you are interested in doing something with. This method is for traversing an arbitrary WML object (eg a table), as opposed to eg the main document part, or a header.

Parameters:

parent -

visitor -

visit

public static void visit(WordprocessingMLPackage wmlPackage,
                         boolean bodyOnly,
                         java.util.List<TraversalUtilVisitor> visitorList)

Use this if there is more than one object type (eg Tables and Paragraphs) you are interested in doing something with during the traversal. This method allows you to traverse just the main document part, or also headers/footers, footnotes/endnotes, and comments as well.

Parameters:

wmlPackage -

bodyOnly -

visitorList -

visit

public static void visit(java.lang.Object parent,
                         java.util.List<TraversalUtilVisitor> visitorList)

Use this if there is more than one object type (eg Tables and Paragraphs) you are interested in doing something with during the traversal. This method is for traversing an arbitrary WML object (eg a table), as opposed to eg the main document part, or a header.

Parameters:

parent -

visitorList -

public static void visit(java.lang.Object parent,
                         TraversalUtil.Callback callback)

visit

public static void visit(WordprocessingMLPackage wmlPackage,
                         boolean bodyOnly,
                         TraversalUtil.Callback callback)
