getGenericElementRule

public static WOMLAbstractNamespace.WOGenericElementRule getGenericElementRule(WOElement element)

Returns the generic element rule for the given generic element. If the parameter is not a WOGenericElement this will return the default rule.

Parameters:

element -

Returns:

getGenericElementRule

public static WOMLAbstractNamespace.WOGenericElementRule getGenericElementRule(String elementName)

Returns the generic element rule for the given element name. If the rule for the given element does not exist this will return the default rule.

Parameters:

elementName -

Returns:

getName

public String getName()

Returns the name to which this rule is associated.

Returns:

getGenericElementType

public String getGenericElementType(WOElement element)

Returns either WOGenericElement or WOGenericContainer, depending on the state of the input element. A container is returned if the element has children or if the GenericElementRules require an end tag. The returned type is suitable for finding a type declaration via a WODeclaration.

Parameters:

element -

Returns:

isContainer

public boolean isContainer(String elementName,
                           boolean hasChildren)

Convenience API for getGenericElementType that will return true if the represented elementName and hasChildren should be represented by a container tag (i.e. <div></div> instead of <div/>

Parameters:

element -

Returns:
