The ("stable") element type itself.
The ("stable") element type itself. It is not restricted in the query API traits (only indirectly, through ThisElemApi).
Concrete element classes will restrict this type to that element class itself.
Upperbound on type ThisElem, which must be restricted to a sub-type of the query API trait in question.

The purely abstract query API traits (XXXApi) should only restrict this type to a sub-type of the query API trait, without putting any further restrictions on the type. This way these purely abstract traits are easy to use as "generic" element contracts abstracting over multiple backing element implementations (for example, Saxon tiny trees and native yaidom elements) without "infecting" the client code with generics.
To a lesser extent, this should also be true for the partially implemented query API traits (XXXLike).
The node type, that is a super-type of the element type, but also of corresponding text node types etc.

This element itself.

Returns the same element, except that child elements have been replaced by applying the given function.
Returns the same element, except that child elements have been replaced by applying the given function. Non-element child nodes occur in the result element unaltered.
That is, returns the equivalent of:
val newChildren = children map { case e: E => f(e) case n: N => n } withChildren(newChildren)
Returns the same element, except that child elements have been replaced by applying the given function.
Returns the same element, except that child elements have been replaced by applying the given function. Non-element child nodes occur in the result element unaltered.
That is, returns the equivalent of:
val newChildren = children flatMap { case e: E => f(e) case n: N => Vector(n) } withChildren(newChildren)
Downcasts this element to a sub-type of AnyElemApi.
Downcasts this element to a sub-type of AnyElemApi. It is needed in generic code written against "raw" query API traits.
A safe usage pattern is as follows: choose a query API trait to start with, such as BackingElemApi. Whenever needed while querying, downcast the result(s) to that same type. This should be safe while using query methods of that query API trait or one of the super-type traits.
Hence, the convenience of programming against "raw" query API traits is traded for some (relatively safe) casting inconvenience.
Transforms the element by applying the given function to all its descendant elements, in a bottom-up manner.
Transforms the element by applying the given function to all its descendant elements, in a bottom-up manner.
That is, returns the equivalent of:
transformChildElems (e => e.transformElemsOrSelf(f))
Transforms the element by applying the given function to all its descendant-or-self elements, in a bottom-up manner.
Transforms the element by applying the given function to all its descendant-or-self elements, in a bottom-up manner.
That is, returns the equivalent of:
f(transformChildElems (e => e.transformElemsOrSelf(f)))In other words, returns the equivalent of:
f(transformElems(f))
Transforms each descendant element to a node sequence by applying the given function to all its descendant-or-self elements, in a bottom-up manner.
Transforms each descendant element to a node sequence by applying the given function to all its descendant-or-self elements, in a bottom-up manner.
That is, returns the equivalent of:
f(transformChildElemsToNodeSeq(e => e.transformElemsOrSelfToNodeSeq(f)))In other words, returns the equivalent of:
f(transformElemsToNodeSeq(f))
Transforms each descendant element to a node sequence by applying the given function to all its descendant elements, in a bottom-up manner.
Transforms each descendant element to a node sequence by applying the given function to all its descendant elements, in a bottom-up manner. The function is not applied to this element itself.
That is, returns the equivalent of:
transformChildElemsToNodeSeq(e => e.transformElemsOrSelfToNodeSeq(f))It is equivalent to the following expression:
transformElemsOrSelf { e => e.transformChildElemsToNodeSeq(che => f(che)) }
API and implementation trait for transformable elements.
More precisely, this trait has abstract methods
transformChildElemsandtransformChildElemsToNodeSeq. Based on these abstract methods, this trait offers a rich API for transforming descendant elements or descendant-or-self elements.The purely abstract API offered by this trait is eu.cdevreeze.yaidom.queryapi.TransformableElemApi. See the documentation of that trait for examples of usage.
