## org.apache.axis.message
Class MessageElement

    java.lang.Object
      org.apache.axis.message.NodeImpl
          org.apache.axis.message.MessageElement

All Implemented Interfaces:
  java.lang.Cloneable, org.w3c.dom.Element, Node, org.w3c.dom.Node, org.w3c.dom.NodeList, java.io.Serializable, SOAPElement

Direct Known Subclasses:
  DetailEntry, RPCParam, SOAPBody, SOAPBodyElement, SOAPEnvelope, SOAPFaultElement, SOAPHeader, SOAPHeaderElement

public class MessageElement
extends NodeImpl
implements SOAPElement, java.io.Serializable, org.w3c.dom.NodeList, java.lang.Cloneable

MessageElement is the base type of nodes of the SOAP message parse tree. Note: it was made Serializable to help users of Apache SOAP who had exploited the serializability of the DOM tree to migrate to Axis.

Method Detail

### getDeserializationContext

    public DeserializationContext getDeserializationContext()

  Retrieve the DeserializationContext associated with this MessageElement

  Returns:
    The DeserializationContext associated with this MessageElement

    public void setFixupDeserializer(Deserializer dser)

### getFixupDeserializer

    public Deserializer getFixupDeserializer()

### setEndIndex

    public void setEndIndex(int endIndex)

  record the end index of the SAX recording.

  Parameters:
    `endIndex` - end value

### isRoot

    public boolean isRoot()

  get a saved ID

  Returns:
    ID or null for no ID

### getHref

    public java.lang.String getHref()

  get a saved href

  Returns:
    href or null

### getAttributesEx

    public org.xml.sax.Attributes getAttributesEx()

  get the attributes

  Returns:
    attributes. If this equals `NullAttributes.singleton` it is null

### cloneNode

    public org.w3c.dom.Node cloneNode(boolean deep)

  Returns a duplicate of this node, i.e., serves as a generic copy constructor for nodes. The duplicate node has no parent; ( `parentNode` is `null`.).
  Cloning an `Element` copies all attributes and their values, including those generated by the XML processor to represent defaulted attributes, but this method does not copy any text it contains unless it is a deep clone, since the text is contained in a child `Text` node. Cloning an `Attribute` directly, as opposed to be cloned as part of an `Element` cloning operation, returns a specified attribute ( `specified` is `true`). Cloning any other type of node simply returns a copy of this node.
  Note that cloning an immutable subtree results in a mutable copy, but the children of an `EntityReference` clone are readonly . In addition, clones of unspecified `Attr` nodes are specified. And, cloning `Document`, `DocumentType`, `Entity`, and `Notation` nodes is implementation dependent.

  Specified by:
    `cloneNode` in interface `org.w3c.dom.Node`
  Overrides:
    `cloneNode` in class `NodeImpl`
  Parameters:
    `deep` - If `true`, recursively clone the subtree under the specified node; if `false`, clone only the node itself (and its attributes, if it is an `Element`).
  Returns:
    The duplicate node.

### childDeepCloned

    protected void childDeepCloned(NodeImpl oldNode,
                                   NodeImpl newNode)

                                         java.lang.String namespace,

### setValue

    public void setValue(java.lang.String value)

  Description copied from interface: `Node`

    `setValue` in interface `Node`
  Overrides:
    `setValue` in class `NodeImpl`
  Parameters:
    `value` - the text to set

### getOwnerDocument

    public org.w3c.dom.Document getOwnerDocument()

  Description copied from class: `NodeImpl`
  The `Document` object associated with this node. This is also the `Document` object used to create new nodes. When this node is a `Document` or a `DocumentType` which is not used with any `Document` yet, this is `null`.
