Method Details

checkType(self, val)

Type checking.

val is object to check. If checkType returns False, a TypeError is raised to claim that Node value assignment is not valid. Either, checkType should return an optionally modified version of val (usefull when dealing with lists assignements where items should be XMLObject instances).

Overrides:: EaseXML.Node.Node.checkType (inherited documentation)

xmlrepr(self, parentInstance=None)

XML representation of the Node

Returns a string representing the Node as XML data.
