public interface NodeFactory

Interface NodeFactory.
A Factory for nodes used to build a tree.
Currently only allows Element nodes to be user-constructed.

Method Detail

### makeElementNode

    public ElementImpl makeElementNode(NodeInfo parent,
                                       int nameCode,
                                       AttributeCollection attlist,
                                       int[] namespaces,
                                       int namespacesUsed,
                                       LocationProvider locator,
                                       int locationId,
                                       int sequenceNumber)

  Create an Element node

  Parameters:
    `parent` - The parent element
    `nameCode` - The element name
    `attlist` - The attribute collection, excluding any namespace attributes
    `namespaces` - List of new namespace declarations for this element, as a sequence of namespace codes representing pairs of strings: (prefix1, uri1), (prefix2, uri2)...
    `namespacesUsed` - the number of elemnts of the namespaces array actually used
    `locator` - Indicates the source document and line number containing the node
    `locationId` - Indicates the source document and line number containing the node
    `sequenceNumber` - Sequence number to be assigned to represent document order.
